Re: Toddler 'abducted' during holiday

Re: Toddler 'abducted' during holiday
I would have thought 'Madeline 'abducted' during holiday' would be a better title being as we now know her name, but otherwise until facts prove otherwise...

Re: Toddler 'abducted' during holiday
Richard Branson’s £100,000 to defend McCanns
http://www.timesonline.co.uk/tol/new...cle2461207.ece
Quote:
According to a YouGov poll for The Sunday Times, only 20% of respondents believe that the McCanns are completely innocent. Nearly half (48%) believe that they could have been responsible for their daughter’s death, even if it was an accident; 32% were unsure. A total of 40% said that the McCanns’ high-profile campaign had made them suspicious, but 50% said that it had not.

Re: Toddler 'abducted' during holiday
I don't get that.. Why would a high-profile campaign make them suspicious? Surely if they murdered her, they would want to sweep it quietly under the rug.
I can't put my finger on what made me seem suspicious in the first place...

Well there's loads of things isn't there... the way the McCann's acted (but how are they supposed to act?) The fact the abductor took her from in between the twins, the lack of evidence of another person, the list goes on, and all adds up to why people aren't sure about this at all.

Re: Toddler 'abducted' during holiday
Plus the fact she seems to have simply vanished? I can't remember the last time I heard a story of a kidnapped child who was not heard of again.

Re: Toddler 'abducted' during holiday
Yet Richard Branson is "convinced" they are innocent. Does he normally give £100k to suspects in criminal cases, or is this a one-off?

They are innocent, as they have not been proven guilty. From your link:

It will help to ensure that they get a fair hearing and that all of the facts become available.
