All my own opinion so no need for anyone to threaten me with suing ok.

They were called back from Chaplins on the 1st when Mrs. Fenn heard the child/children crying for over an hour. They were not a bit impressed when they were requested by MW to ensure the children were looked after at night. One early report I read stated Gerry said ‘we know best how to care for our children�?when offered babysitting for subsequent nights. End of story as far as they were concerned they had put the staff in their place. Also they would not have liked that they were singled out by their children’s behavior as there don’t seem to be any accounts of the other Tapas couples or their children brought to the attention of the staff. Don’t forget that some of the Tapas7 with their children had been abroad together before (Greece) staying in MW and this babysitting system worked beautifully for them. (Well they didn’t lose anyone). The McCann’s and their children are the newbies on this holiday and if you believe any of BOD’s novella Gerry was the life and soul of the party and from what I have seem of him over the past 11 months strikes me as a person who would absolutely hate to be chastised especially if it was publicly and more to the point if it was over the control that he and Kate had/or not over their children. Worse still would be an implication of negligence by staff.

With the newest leak they have told us that Madeleine and Sean were crying on the 2nd. We didn’t know this for sure before but now it is a fact (albeit according to McCann’s). I believe as I have for ages that there is always some truth in what they say, just a little bit mind you but enough for them to think the story is plausible and enough (in their minds) to counter anything any other witness might have seen or heard that they didn’t know about at the time. I believe the truth in this statement is that Madeleine was crying, Sean was not, he and Amelie were sedated and slept through the night. Madeleine being older and bigger the sedation wore off quicker.

They sedated all three children the night of the 2nd so they could go out without the hassle. Locked them all in and didn’t bother to check until they left Tapas to go to Chaplins. Went in through the patio doors had a quick look, kids all asleep, left by the front door. This disturbed Madeleine and she woke, groggy and tried to look for them, locked in she couldn’t do anything so got into their bed to wait for them to come back. They arrived home drunk and found Madeleine in their bed crying asking why did you not come and one of them lost the rag. What did they have to do to keep this child quiet? No one else’s child caused problems. Shook or struck her in anger so badly she died. I believe that if there is any truth to the curtains being washed, it was the ones in their bedroom.


They are then horror stricken what do you do in the middle of the night whilst drunk with your 3 year old daughter dead with obvious signs of violence and sedation on post mortem if you call in the authorities. They make plans to save themselves and keep their remaining children. They put in motion a plan that if sober they wouldn’t have dreamt of. They decide to hide her body and cry abduction. They had already been in PDL for 4 and half days. Kids had been in the crèche all day everyday. They had been free to jog, play tennis, roam around. Maybe they had seen somewhere they could put her body. Maybe it seemed safe to them at the time in their panic that if they cried abduction and Madeleine was found dead it would be the abductors fault. They start a major clean up. By morning they are sober and in shock. They tell everyone the next day they are having a family day and need one of the hire cars. The twins so young are told Madeleine is with her friends and off they go with the corpse in the tennis bag in the boot of the car. They bury her in the earth or at sea and get back to PDL in the late afternoon in time for Gerry to have his tennis lesson and Kate to finish cleaning and get the twins ready for bed. They have to hold it all together just until dark so they can cry abduction.

No one else knows anything which is why the timeline is off whack. JT would never have pretended to see an abductor at the same time as Gerry was stood in the street if she was in on it and Gerry never once corroborated what she said. The last photo with the timeline changed from 1.29 to 2.29 could well have been because none of the other tapas were near the pool at that time being the children were due back in Crèche so they could well have said they just arrived back from their morning out. Why would anyone disbelieve them? Maybe Gerry had Kate on tranquilizers during the day to keep her going while he sorted everything out. They could both, once the alarm was raised be hysterical it would be only normal wouldn’t it except they both became hysterical at the very minute they supposedly found Madeleine missing which wasn’t normal at all. Most people would just then be in shock and unbelieving of what they were seeing and out searching everywhere. It would take in my mind at least an hour to totally believe the child was really gone and not just hiding or in someone else’s apartment. Gerry roaring like a bull and Kate knowing immediately that Madeleine had been taken and phoning family to insist it was an abduction was reportedly very shortly after the alarm was raised.

The next four days they were grief stricken and then something happened (wish I knew what) and then I think they believed they were in the clear. Gerry had his vision and they started the fund and behaving like Slebs even before the 12th Madeleine’s fourth birthday and just over a week since she went missing but by then they were well on the way to becoming ‘The Fighting McCann’s�? I don’t for one minute think once they had completed the hard part and got to the alarm and that all went smoothly that they thought they would ever be disbelieved.

Sorry this is so long. It is just my take on what I believe could have happened if it happened on the 2nd.
