The story about the man who was killed with an axe. His mum spent her entire life campaigning for justice. Everyone used to make fun of her and call her crazy, they used to avoid her because she'd stand and talk to people for ages. She used to come in to the supermarket where I worked all the time and 'bother' the staff. Just talking to them for ages (general small talk) by that time she was a little old lady with a dog. She used to come in at night a lot, just before the shop closed. One night she accidentally picked up my bag of shopping, so I had to go to her house to retrieve it. Even though it was 10:30pm , she tried to get me to stay by chatting, offering me a cup of tea, etc . It as then I realised just how lonely she was a d i felt terribly sorry for her that nobody believed her. I eventually moved away from the area so never saw her again. She died a few years ago, never knowing the truth :(

The Maddy McCann story has always raised so much debate. I thought for years the parents had accidentally given her an overdose to get her to sleep so they could enjoy a nice meal with friends. But years later I just can’t imagine this to be true. Could parents ever kill and dispose of their own child’s body and claim otherwise for years after, lying blind to the police and media?I just don’t think so somehow. I hope we find out one day and the Saga of Maddy McCann can finally be a closed case. God speed little one ❤️

On the contrary, I think it's possible they're just so deep in the lies that to admit anything now would ruin their lives even more. Unfortunately it's likely we'll never know the truth of it.

[@geckokid8265]

The only reason we know so much about the case is because the parents are very wealthy and they can "persuade" the police and media to keep the case open and in the public conscience meaning other missing persons case go cold and get forgotten. Personally I don't trust anyone who would drug their children and leave them alone for hours just to have a meal, if she's dead (which in my opinion is most likely) some of her blood is on their hands sorry if that sounds cold, it's just my opinion and I could be wrong

There is significant evidence that madelaine's parents were involved in her disappearance. Many, many people now believe they caused her death, inadvertently perhaps, then covered it up. Lots of information on this out there if you want to find out more. Chances she was abducted by a child trafficking ring are extremely low. Even if the parents were not responsible for her death, they are absolutely responsible for child neglect by leaving two young babies and a toddler alone in a hotel room so they can go out for jollies. Any normal working class UK resident who did that would be smeared all over the papers as terrible parents, but because the Mccan's are rich, upper class doctors, the good old double standards come out. Similarly, any 'normal' child that went missing wouldn't have had even one iota of the money and time put into investigating their disappearance. The Mccans are being given special treatment because of their class, money, and having friends in high places.

[@Crackparty803]

This.

[@roocknrollqueen]

if there were "evidence" then they would be convicted, no matter their money. And the information "out there" is just rambling on the internet with no proof on it. You can't just thrust someone's name in mud and accusations because you read something online that "makes sense" to you. Thousands of people were involved in the search and NOBODY can prove who did this. The parents are not THAT rich to cover up and silence thousands of helpers including police in multiple countries, the media and the fucking interpol

[@Oreztar]

@@roocknrollqueen theres not a single shred of evidence she was abducted either, no finger prints, no DNA, no evidence of any 'intruder' into the room. I'm not debatimg this with you. There is enough information out there for anyone that wants to delve deeper. I'm simply pointing out that this is very very far from a clean cut abduction case, kates refusal to answer any questions that could have helped return her daughter is not the behaviour of a mother desperate to get her child back. You believe what you like. Many others are not fooled.

[@roocknrollqueen]

@@Oreztar ah and the so called "evidence" is online on a blog but it isn't with: the police, the helpers, the family besides the parents, the friends, the interpol, the private investigators, the media and many many others? If there really is EVIDENCE then the parents would not be able to hide it from ALL. Don't mistake circumstances, theories, and all that with actual hard EVIDENCE, you sound ridiculous. Let's say it was some child trafficking mafia, you really thing they would leave finger prints?

[@Oreztar]

@@roocknrollqueen as I said, I'm not interested in debating it with you. Theres plenty of places you can go to peddle your nonsense. I'm simply saying people should look further into it and make up their own minds. Which you and I have both done. At the absolute least they should be locked up for child neglect and endangerment; any working class normal british mother would have been if she left her babies alone to go out having fun. Odd how they got away with that one when Tracey on benefits down the street would have been locked up.

If someone hired a private investigator to watch me, we’d have a new let’s read fan cause that’s all he’d see doing

It would be kinda scary to be a detective....Sherlock Holmes tell us your secrets!

I feel so bad for people who hear and see things that aren’t there, quite recently I was on the bus and a woman got on. She started yelling “ stop “ and “ shut up leave me alone “ at random people.. She didn’t seem high or anything just mentally unwell.. but I could be wrong. She seemed very sure that a man sitting across from her was following her and pestering her about her life. I couldn’t help but think how terrible and scary it would be to go through that.. like I can only imagine that it’s a suffocating feeling and that it’s confusing as well. I felt really bad for her.
