Yes but they'll have done that in respect of the McCanns leaving their young children unattended in a manner many people deem neglectful. Whatever else has gone on in this sad case, they are guilty of that.

If any of the friends they were holidaying with at the time left their childrwen in similar circumstances I'd argue they have a case to answer also.
