And my ultimate point is, there is a hang 'em high contingent on this forum who think that police suspicion is as good as a conviction. And despite your protestations, if you think we're being 'forgiving' based on the information in the public domain, you apparently are one of them.
Otherwise, what is there to 'forgive' anyone for?
Innocent until proven guilty, that's the main thing I am insisting on. And in support of that, not drawing conclusions that go beyond the available evidence, especially when some of that 'evidence' is simply our own flawed understanding of how police investigations in a foreign country are handled.
I am open minded about this case. The parents *could* have done it. I have said all along that the information available, by which I mean actual evidence, not dodgy interpretations of police activity, is not nearly weighty enough to convince me that they did, or even make me suspicious that they did.
