I can see it in her eyes - They are pure evil!! Seriously though, I think they had some involvement. Why else would she have stormed back into the Tapas bar shouting "They have taken her!" They know more than they reveal.

yeah thats pretty sick...still its pretty funny though

I dont think they got enough evidence yet to say they done it, but it does look pretty suspicious. The whole 'blood in the car thing' is deffo a bit fishy...

IMO it's a huge leveling thing because of the totally unprecendented amount of media fuss they created.. Did the parents have the balls to continually hassle the media to get people to find her to keep them out of the suspicion spotlight? Idk, pick a level.

I hate this whole court of public opinion thing. Who cares if they did it anymore? Public says they're guilty because the man in the television picture box told them to think that.

Fuck that.

^^ It made international news because she was a cute blonde girl, whose parents are middle-class, god-fearing christians. It's utter bullshit, hundreds of children go missing every year without the media even batting an eyelid. Must've been a slow news day when she got "kidnapped".

My opinion on this is that I reaaalllllly hope she was killed by her parents, so i can laugh and laugh and laugh at all the your pain is my pain bandwagon jumping fucks that spammed my myspace page with 'Where's Madeline' banners. And also because it will make their visit to the Pope even more hilarious. An ex-nazi sympathising with some child killers, Hahaha.

Colour me cynical, I guess.

Did. I called it in like July and think I'm about to be proved right.

Obv the parents accidentally killed her somehow, or she killed herself while she was unsupervised somehow. So the parents shat themselves, dumped the body, and pretended she was missing.

Yeah theres no way they killed her on purpose. Apparently they were drugging her at night to help her sleep better, only with calpol and nurofen and shit, but still im guessing an overdose of that can be critical to a 4 year old.


But whats you thought process if you just accidentally killed your kid. ''whoops, get an ambulance'' or ''oh shit! am I gonna go down for this?''

Yeah but even if you thought there was the smallest chance, youd still ring the ambulance instantly...almost as a natural reaction.

Meh this is all hypothetical/ just plain wrong, but you'd think they'd know how to ressucitate so they wouldn't need to ring, and once you add in panic...

Ash is right though, it's just about what level you think they're on. I just thought it was really really wierd the way they went on a huge tour to show the outpouring of grief. I don't know though, I haven't lost a child like that so I don't know how I would react. I'm also not the one to judge.

Well, it's often hard to make that sort of statement because the press tends to go after readers rather than represent a particular political agenda. For instance the Sun was notoriously attached to the Conservative (aka Tory) party, so much so that they replaced their usual half-naked "Page 3" bimbo on election day 1992 with a fat granny with the headline "This is what you'll get if you vote labour."

By the time the next election came they had changed allegiance to Labour.

So the papers are aimed at:

Telegraph: Die-hard conservatives
Times: Conservatives who want to read tabloids but dare not
Independent: Left-wing liberals who like to think they're open-minded
Guardian: Socialists who can't spell

The Sun: Morons and people who want a cheap sport or tv magazine
The Mirror: Morons who think they are socialists
The Daily Mail: Morons who think they're better than Sun/Mirror readers
The Express: Morons who can't work out how to cancel a subscription
The Star: Morons who think the Mirror is too right wing.
The Daily Sport: People who like the boobies.

The Financial Times: The sensible choice for right-thinking and smart people.

Hopefully I've offended some of our British members. Huzzah.

Oh, as to OP question:
Don't know, haven't got proper access to the evidence, so feel no desire to speculate, nor to pay equally-ignorant-journalists to feed me their speculation.
Blah blah Op Blah blah

Faith in Jesus Christ is +EV. That is all.

Warpe.. of all people.. you.. a Torygraph reader...
Torygraph = right wing newspaper?
Well, it's often hard to make that sort of statement because the press tends to go after readers rather than represent a particular political agenda. For instance the Sun was notoriously attached to the Conservative (aka Tory) party, so much so that they replaced their usual half-naked "Page 3" bimbo on election day 1992 with a fat granny with the headline "This is what you'll get if you vote labour."

By the time the next election came they had changed allegiance to Labour.

So the papers are aimed at:

Telegraph: Die-hard conservatives
Times: Conservatives who want to read tabloids but dare not
Independent: Left-wing liberals who like to think they're open-minded
Guardian: Socialists who can't spell

The Sun: Morons and people who want a cheap sport or tv magazine
The Mirror: Morons who think they are socialists
The Daily Mail: Morons who think they're better than Sun/Mirror readers
The Express: Morons who can't work out how to cancel a subscription
The Star: Morons who think the Mirror is too right wing.
The Daily Sport: People who like the boobies.

The Financial Times: The sensible choice for right-thinking and smart people.

Hopefully I've offended some of our British members. Huzzah.

Oh, as to OP question:
Don't know, haven't got proper access to the evidence, so feel no desire to speculate, nor to pay equally-ignorant-journalists to feed me their speculation.
Awesome post - you got it spot on there.

I used to read the Mail until they started jumping on the celebrity bandwagon and sensationalizing(real word?) every minor little article to the extent that a regular reader may be forgiven for thinking that they are about to die from a foot & mouth disease outbreak being accelerated by global warming which has also caused it to mutate with the blue-tongue virus whilst Gordon Brown pokes you with a stick and takes all your money after letting 1,000 illegal immigrants move into your house who will eventually blow it up with a mad cow disease chemical bomb attack which the police had known about for years.
