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. |
Im very calm about the entire thing, you said something along the lines of that you dont think they are capable of commiting such an act. Im asking on what basis do you form that opinion.
With regards to the individual case then we probably have the same amount of knowledge. However with regards to the conduct of a forensic investigation and what lines are/should be taken by a SIO and also CSC/CSM in handling an enquiry then I suspect we differ a bit.
And where just out of interest I have made a parody of what you have said ?
That would be the watercooler speculation of trained SOCO's who now train all english/welsh PSNI CSI/Crime scene managers and co ordinators is it ?
