Take a chill pill my friend. I'm guessing that my knowledge of the parents and firsthand involvement in the case is just about the same as yours. Don't throw stones in a greenhouse.

And it's a bit rich for you to rail against the media circus whilst happily regurgitating the aimless, watercooler speculation of the people you work with.

As for my reasons for believing what I do, I have set them out, more than once, above. All that stuff about what they stood to gain, what they stood to lose, their likely ability to conceal a body in a foreign country ... you even replied to some of it.

And I never said I thought the family couldn't possibly do such a thing. In my reply to South London Mo (post 617, which you have in fact just quoted in reply to me) I said:

"The fact that parents kill their children does indeed mean it is technically possible that the McCanns may have murdered their daughter. I do not however believe it is likely."

Now, if you'd like to continue the discussion calmly, and on the basis of what I've actually said rather than on a distorted parody of it, by all means, let's continue.
