Madeleine McCann Netflix documentary

I think the fact the children were left on more than one occasion in different nights says a lot. Just pure selfishness! If you wanna go on holiday to eat tapas and get pissed get childcare and leave your kids at home! Don’t take them with you and leave them by themselves in a strange unlocked apartment.

I have another potential theory which could explain why they are so cold and emotionless about their daughter being gone..

Madeleine was apparently a ‘problem child’ Kate revealed she struggled to control Madeleine. Maybe anger took over and she lost the love she had for her, she lost her temper with her and killed her or sold her.. once she was gone she was relieved and felt no love for her. Which would explain the lack of emotion?

It would also explain why the twins stayed safe in their beds and only Madeleine dissappeared.

^ What I don't understand is why they didn't have a babysitter with the children, apparently the resort offered this free of charge (surely they could afford it, though?) Maybe the McCanns and the other parents in their group probably felt embarrassed this would have been practically every night but even so.
I find it difficult not believing the theory about Madeleine waking up in a daze due to being given Calpol or something similar and unfortunately fell and hit her head on the hard floor by the sofa where the specialist dogs alerted like crazy. If so, I'm curious as to where they disposed of her body without anyone seeing anything. It's awful to think about but just can't get my head around it.
I don't know if it's already been mentioned but statement analysis expert Peter Hyatt has an interesting video on YouTube explaining how he's of the opinion the McCanns know their daughter is dead. His account doesn't mean he's 100% correct but it's definitely food for thought.

Apparently it didn’t fit in with the children’s sleeping routine to put them in the night crèche because it meant them going to bed very early because the selfish idiots couldn’t wait a couple more hours to go out on the piss. Which made no sense anyway because they went out at 8pm.. surely that’s a normal bed time for 2 babies and a 3 year old?

The problem with the Netflix series is that the narrators (the old geezer with the woman) are Summers and Swan who wrote a book on behalf of Kate and Gerry McCann and made a lot of mone. They are incredibly biased. I've read all of the police files and that Netflix is shite. This is a good podcast by someone who as followed the case closely for years. More facts in this without the edits that are in the Netflix series. Four parts so far and he has more to follow. Worth a listen. https://omny.fm/shows/maddie/theyve-taken-her

It's fairly obvious the poor child died that night, the sniffer dogs found blood traces in their car.

How the parents got away with this crime and then had the audacity to turn it into a money making circus is beyond.

I remember back in the day a really fab intuitive who had solved many murder cases said where she was buried. The mccanns ignored him completely.

I'm close to giving up after the stuff about child crime rings, billionaires with their private jets and the missing Portuguese boy :(

So many things I had forgotten about like the Russian web developer that was bundled in a car. Didn't quite get why he didn't want to say what was on his dvds? Assume it was just normal porn as wasn't charged with anything.

Agree with the Portuguese police that publicising the distinctive eyes was a death sentence, if she was still alive.

Seems like another world with letting go of all of those baloons - you wouldn't get away with that these days.

Vast swaves of the uk general public are still convinced she's alive and the parents are innocent.

What I don't get is if Kate did kill her and Gerry knew why did they court so much press? It seems like they choose to keep it as high profile as possible.

^^ If you genuinely didn't know where your child was, surely you'd listen to that intuitive even if you'd normally dismiss people like that before your child went missing- you'd be desperate and hopeful to find out anything.
I know people behave differently but a lot of the McCann's behaviour just doesn't make sense.
If they're guilty I don't understand the cover-up, it's not as if they're major celebrities or royalty (not that this would make it ok but I hope you know what I mean). If they know for sure she's dead how dare they waste all these taxpayers' money, around £12M now? It's still going on with the Met police investigation - a now retired detective said he didn't agree with Londoners having to pay towards this investigation when it happened abroad and the family lived elsewhere in the UK.

The phrase hiding in plane sight comes to mind.

Stop the press circus, people will wonder why they don't care.

I’ve never been able to decide whether Madeleine died accidentally or was sold to kidnappers but either way it’s always been very obvious that the parents know the truth. I’ve always found the Tapas 7 group very suspicious as well, I find it very hard to accept that 2 parents were stupid enough to leave their 3 kids alone in that room but then 5 other adults didn’t turn round to them and tell them that’s not acceptable either 🤔
They seem to have chosen Offence is the best defence and for that reason courted the media attention to get people to feel sorry for them. It’s the route they’ve taken to cover their lies and I don’t think they know how to back out of it.
Someone else out there knows the truth though, if she did die then they would need help to hide/dispose of the body or if she was sold/kidnapped then there would be people involved that would know.
Main problem is no one who knows has any reason to come forward with the truth so unless anyone has any deathbed confessions in the future then we may never know the truth

I feel the parents have friends in high places and may have some personal/embarassing info about them too hence the extraordinary help they've had, where no other parents of missing children have ever had before or since. They've not even been charged with leaving their kids alone several times in an unlocked apartment, that is child neglect at the very least.

I don't think i'll watch this documentary after all if it is in favour of the parents.

The tapas 7 group seem really dodgy, the 3 of them that were going after Robert with the police. I want to know more about each of them and their connections. As rightly said no way would they go and check every 20 mins. I bet once in the middle of the night out at most. Going out from 8pm until late every night and leaving the children unattended is beyond reckless. The amount of proven lies is adding up.

The sniffer dog footage I've seen before on amateur productions, but the way it's edited on this makes it seem so much more damming. I've always thought they were guilty and this is just confirming it more, but I'm easily swayed.

Just watched e4. Though still wonder about the blood if she was just sedated, why would there be blood?

Offering Kate 2 years as a plea bargain, what?! Just a year inside prison if she admits to being guilty of accidentally killing a child then fabricating and misleading. Seems very lenient seeing as just lying about speeding points can get 6-9 months.

I’ve just finished ep4 and on the contrary it seems they are being very brutal towards to parents and showing lots of footage with the sniffer dogs finding evidence of blood and corpse scent in the apartment, on madeleines cuddly toy and the rental car that the McCann’s hired weeks after Madeleine went missing.

If you want to watch a proper documentary on this case, look for Richard D Hall on YouTube. He has many many episodes on Madeline McCann. Including one with Peter Hyatt who is an expert in statement analysis. If you only watch one, watch that one.
You really have to stick with them, richards tone is quite.... monotonous. But his information is fantastic.
He questions if she even "disappeared" on the date they claim, or if it was actually a few days before. Sounds impossible initially, but he backs it all up with fact.
Give them a shot and draw your conclusions!

I’ve a tiny bit left to watch but despite most of this documentary being biased in favour of the McCann and against the Portuguese police and press I’m even more convinced they have something to do with it.

  1. Trained dogs found the scent of blood and the smell of death, in the room she went missing, in their later apartment AND in their hire car
  2. Tampered with the shutter and pulled it back down after saying she’d been taken. Also letting people traipse through the room before police got there
  3. Washing madelines bear, why would you even do that surely you’d want to treasure the last smell you have of your child
  4. The efit photo that looks EXACTLY like Gerry and a witness who said they were 60-80% sure they saw him carrying a baby
  5. I could go on and on and on
I am truly baffled how they were never charged, Gerry comes across as very cold and calculating and don’t get me started on why they even left them in the first place. WITH THE DOORS UNLOCKED 🤯

Re the blood thing I think the ‘theory’ was she woke up and was dazed still because of that and fell possibly killing her self. Obviously that’s just what I’ve read

I've not watched any of the episodes yet, it sounds very 'balanced' then as though they have to conclude it may have been an abduction after all (giving me the impression Netflix or whoever don't want to be sued by the McCanns if the series definitely points the finger towards them).

About letting people enter the room before the police did, it's all very reminiscent of the JonBenet Ramsey case when the parents called friends to come over but that's another story.

This to me was the biggest red flag, I wouldnt consider even leaving kids in a locked house at home let alone unlocked in an unfamiliar environment. Maddie is at that age where had she woken up with an issue she could have gone to look for her parents.
The person who checked the room before alarm was raised said the door was open but due to no noise didn’t go in and check. That seems very bizarre to me, if the door was open then someone would have been awake at some point since the last time it was checked.
If McCanns weren’t involved in their daughters death/cover up then it’s the highest level of neglect/stupidity
