It says forensic results show the blood came from a man, ending speculation the little girl was murdered in the apartment the night she disappeared.

You're both right in a sense - absence of evidence is not evidence of absence. However as I've been saying all along, we need to give due regard to likelihood based on available evidence, otherwise we have no reliable means of establishing which theories are more credible and which are less credible.
The fact that the blood does not belong to Madeleine McCann means that there is *no* evidence to support the theory that she died in the apartment. In terms of working out what is likely to have happened to her, this does, as the newspaper suggests, put an end to the speculation that she died there. Or at least, it should. Sadly I suspect the conspiracists won't want to let it drop.
