I'm fairly certain it's a very common theory.The sedation, overdose angle was a splurge of detail I wasn't expecting. These theories don't normally extend beyond "they look like they did it".

So....pretty much based on nothing whatsoever..Maybe a friend or someone who knew they left the kids alone. Someone who noticed the kids were not with them. It had to be someone familiar with the family maybe a guest. Close the the family not necessarily related but just someone who knows when the children were left alone.
Well it did happen in the Algarve where most people are hispanic, so yes it does. It suggests that it was probably someone on holiday in the area. If you narrowed it down to all sorts of accomodation in couple of mile radius and checked who was staying in all the hotels and then drew up a short list matching that description, did back ground checks, DNA checks ect ect then you might get somewhere.So the new suspects are generic white males? That narrows it down a bit.
They should have been charged with gross neglected, I agree with that. If it was a single mum from Peckham who did that she certainly would have been.The parents are the ones who should be charged anyway.
Yeah that's what I meant. Can't charge them with disappearing a child, so if there's no proper suspects, just do them for neglect.They should have been charged with gross neglected, I agree with that. If it was a single mum from Peckham who did that she certainly would have been.
They have made a fortune out of her disappearance. If they ever do find out what happened they will make even more from the movie and the sequels (Maddie The Return etc...)
I don’t for a moment suspect the parents, but they were totally irresponsible and failed in protecting their child and have milked the whole thing ever since. Their appearance on Oprah took the biscuit.
How come I have never heard of any of these kids -

If you're asked to discuss it, you can only be truthful and say what you really feel. If you're right or wrong it doesn't matter, it's not like your personal opinion would hold any sway.
I personally have a gut feeling that the parents were involved. I think they sedated the child and left her alone so they could go out. I think they accidently overdosed her, panicked and hid her body. In the absence of any proof together with claims of a cover up by Portuguese authorities, it's actually hard for me to look elsewhere, tbh. I'd love to be proven wrong and for her to be found, alive, after being kidnapped for adoption or whatever but that isn't my gut feeling.
I totally agree.
I presume its ok to laugh at your gut feeling.
Lets run with it for a moment though, one thing you might pose a possible answer to, how do two British tourists dispose of a body from a holiday resort in a foreign country and do it so well that not a trace is ever found?No record of them buying so much as a shovel, wait, maybe they used the kids plastic spades from the beach.
Thats before we go near the logic behind deciding the best way to move on from a world famous murder you have gotten away with is to work non stop, feck it, even write a book, to make sure the case stays in the public eye and is reinvestigated.
Laugh away. I'd like nothing more than to be proven wrong. Also, as for hiding the body, how many missing people ever get found? They are all alive I presume? Oh, wait, it must be master criminals that get rid of all these missing people? Maybe it's a specialised gang responsible for all of them. As for keeping the case in the public eye, well it would be a bit fecking stupid if they didn't. I presume it's okay for me to be amused at your naivety?

Go ahead, I'd imagine most things amuse you.Laugh away. I'd like nothing more than to be proven wrong. Also, as for hiding the body, how many missing people ever get found?

I'm assuming you've read the publicly available, audited accounts of their foundation yeah, I mean you wouldn't seriously buy into the bullshit that theory that they not only killed and got away with killing their child but that they are also getting away with living like kings on the proceeds of it, are you? I mean because you'd need to be really fecking dumb to buy into that sort of thing.If they didn't stay in the public eye then where would all their riches come from? It makes sense to keep the wealth rolling; in for a penny, in for a pound and all that.
As for disposing the body, isn't it plausible that they just put it in a dumpster and lucked out when it was tossed before anyone found it? They needn't have been master criminals, just lucky.
I'm inspectorgating. Not buying into anything necessarily, just exploring all angles; good police work.I'm assuming you've read the publicly available, audited accounts of their foundation yeah, I mean you wouldn't seriously buy into the bullshit that theory that they not only killed and got away with killing their child but that they are also getting away with living like kings on the proceeds of it, are you?

Is it my imagination, or was there always something about a small amount of unidentified blood on the window sill? I remember thinking early on the poor little thing climbed up to look out the window to see if she could see them and slipped. Then again there was all sorts of misinformation leaked at first.So the theory thus far is that the McCann's sedated the child in order that they could go out partying, but accidentally overdosed her and ended up with a body on their hands. One of them, most likely the father, then drove and dumped the body as far away as was practical into a skip/bin which fortunately for them was then removed and tipped before the body was able to be found found. They then play the hysterical parents of a kidnapped child card and once the ball starts rolling find they're unable to ever back down from the story and as might be expected it becomes something of an obsession for them, living lives of celebrity and denial forevermore whilst the world searches for the truth which will never be found unless one day, overburdened with madness and guilt, the parents crack.
I think he's just taking the piss, tbh. Saying that, people are acting like parents have never killed their kid before.Is it my imagination, or was there always something about a small amount of unidentified blood on the window sill?

Anyway, your theory is indeed plausible and the police most certainly won't have ruled them out like some people want to.
No...people are focusing on the unique context of this case and applying sense. You yourself, just a couple posts ago, said it was highly unlikely and rationally it couldn't possibly be the parents.I think he's just taking the piss, tbh.

Are they?I think he's just taking the piss, tbh. Saying that, people are acting like parents have never killed their kid before.
I did, what is rational about this case though?No...people are focusing on the unique context of this case and applying sense. You yourself, just a couple posts ago, said it was highly unlikely and rationally it couldn't possibly be the parents.
Well that's bullshit aswell, it would take a hell of a lot more than leaving your kids in a room asleep for a few hours while you sat a hundred yards away having dinner before the state would take kids into care.In that case, apologies to you.
Anyways, whether they directly had anything to do with her disappearance or not, why have they not been prosecuted for leaving a baby unattended and at the very least be held accountable for her going missing?
If that was Tracy from a council estate, the cps would be all over her and her remaining children taken into care.
She had two babies with her though.She wasn't a baby, she was a small child.
Sedated in a hotel room, in a different country, while you go out to get pissed? How do you know they were only gonna be gone for a few hours?Well that's bullshit aswell, it would take a hell of a lot more than leaving your kids in a room asleep for a few hours while you sat a hundred yards away having dinner before the state would take kids into care.
Makes it more dangerous, tbf. At least a baby can't get out of its cot.She wasn't a baby, she was a small child.
