The disappearance of Madeleine McCann during a family trip to Portugal has been one of the most televised missing-person cases in modern history. Though she vanished from a resort back in 2007 at the age of 3, the world is still deeply invested in finding her. Suspicions and theories have run rampant across the internet and media outlets, and in this video, I am analyzing their nonverbal communication and body to see if there is any useful information that can be gleaned from the footage.

As a Portuguese, if I left my babies unattended I’d be charged with child neglect and endangering, but these upper class doctors with friends in high places got to the Portuguese government, they were let off!!! Shameful.. a baby’s life was lost, an inspector’s career was destroyed and our country’s reputation was put in check, when Portugal is one of Europe’s safest countries!!
They don't sound upperclass to me, nouveaux riches perhaps.
The Portuguese discontinued the case because they considered it to be a case of British-on-British K**ling
Not to mention the amount of money they made out of donations and if I'm not wrong a book she released some time ago. I hope they both never ever return here!! They are not welcome. This is the most outrageous case ever!! Not even a neglect or endangering of minors charge was brought against them what a disgrace! I'm sure if there were charges and if they were put in jail they would turn against each other and we would know a whole lot more by now!
@@Meowmeter neglect is not the main issue even bad parents don’t want their child abducted Somehow none of the nine saw the danger of abduction
@@robquithoven9547I'll never believe little Madeleine was abducted. The parents are surely responsible, probably accidentally but their cover-up is shameful.
I've been to that resort, and I've eaten at the restaurant. You CANNOT see the apartment, and you actually have to leave the resort and walk up the road, past an alley way that is *completely* obscured from view that runs along the front of the apartments and then in through the door on the side. Their justification that the apartment was in their line of sight is ridiculous - you cannot see anything like enough of the apartment to give any kind of reassurance
Yeah no, your comment doesn't surprise me at all, just the map Logan showed.. how on earth is that close? Even if it was all on the same property, that is absolutely not in any way, shape or form to any parent out there with full, proper, undamaged parental instincts close.
And leave door open for what de hel reason?...if you're protecting g your children you lock them up
Omg samee! I went there on a holiday, even went to the church they were always going to afterwards. The area is very out of sight. I had such an eerie feeling when i was there, super weird.
I have heard that, and that it wasn’t nearly as close as what they were making out. Also there was a babysitting service in the complex they could have left them at but for some reason they were like nope let’s just risk leaving them in our rooms. I wonder how many other times they had done this.
I’ve seen videos where they show that area of the resort and how the group would not have had a clear view of the apartment. Crazy.
The fact her mother said there was zero risk leaving kids that young alone tells me everything I need to know about their capacity as parents.
They claim that she was abducted. If that's true, she was only abducted because they were not with her. So they would have to accept in retrospect that there was actually a risk to what they did.
Whatever they claim, whatever their theory, they have to accept that their child is gone...... ergo, leaving her alone was, indeed a risk.@@thatsfunny2051
Indeed. Made me think I must not know the meaning of the word, "risk." 🤔
@@thatsfunny2051 Exactly. So that proves that they did not see it as a risk and still don't as they know that is not what happened, ie, she didn't get abducted and I believe she passed the day before (at least). Listen to Gerry's statement he makes when he says "that's an emphatic no". If you listen to his words about what he says didn't happen, you know that is exactly what happened!!! Just listen to that emphatic no statement, the whole thing and have in your mind she passed the day before, and it will all make sense. He actually admits it. He describes exactly what happened except he says that is what didn't happen. He is not a sophisticated liar and without the help of the kuRupt British pdf gov he would have been locked up for life in my opinion.
She's a "working" mom which means she dropped the girl off a daycare or with a nanny everyday despite the child kicking and screaming not understanding why mom is leaving her again. Any mother that can do that day after day with zero compunction won't have too much trouble leaving a 3 year old alone in a hotel room.
Sedating a child that is always acting out because she is terrified mom will leave at any moment for work or a 2 hour run sounds extremely probable.
My son sadly passed away at 26 yrs old and I still have his teddy bear from he was a baby and would rather die than wash it!!
Same here, my son died in 2017 at age 17. I still have an unwashed shirt and teddy bear.. I know parents act differently in different situations, but their behaviour is utterly strange.
Exactly! Every loving mother would, their behaviour is so telling
You don't need to say sadly - we wouldn't expect you to be happy.
Lost my own son in May this year 2024 Mary so know EXACTLY. how you feel.Sending love to you.❤❤❤❤❤❤
a parent describing their baby as "Compact" is so cringe
Like a puppy or something… are they both narcissists?
I don’t even understand what that meant.
and "perfect head"? the whole interview with them is crazy
You are incredibly uncultured and yeah…. so cringe
Yeah, in her book is even more eerie.
If you were poor and left children that young, alone in their home while you drank at the pub across the road, you'd be reported by doctors like these two.
Yep I've made this point all along too, especially about Kate. A GP is legally obliged to report parenting like her own to social services. There is no way they thought what they were doing was OK. They were just arrogant enough to think they'd get away with it. And they have, but at great cost.😢
And you would be jailed
That's exactly what would happen today, BUT also 20 years ago. My boys are almost same age as Maddie, this case just rubs the wrong way with any real parent.
@@marinamccogan5251 My eldest was just turned 3, my youngest was born 15 days after Maddie vanished. I know it's not about me, but worry and fear for that poor wee soul was a shit end to that pregnancy. And yes, you're spot on, 20 years ago it was the same law and procedure. The only thing that makes sense is Maddie died accidentally because she was neglected, and they coveted it up to save their asses.
@@interneteditor5258
Not so sure about that.
Gerry was videoed being somewhat 'disgruntled' stating that "this is not just a holiday".
So what was it going to be then Gerry ?
She washed her daughters stuffie within two weeks after she vanished. A stuffie she slept with every night, that smelled like her. When I heard that, as a mom myself, I knew enough. It is such weird behaviour. Scent is such a crucial part between mother and child from the first time they meet. It's primal. And yet to just wash it away, for whatever reason, is just bizarre behavior.
It's these tiny details that speak volumes. Like with JonBenet. The mom comes down, sees the letter that JonBenet has been taken.. starts running around the house to check where she is according to her BUT never once runs outside. She had no way of knowing it has been 10 seconds or 5 minutes.. since she had been taken.. outside. It's weird. Details like that bug me. Seems unnatural. I think both couples are covering something up.
@@moontan_they both seem be coving up something
Wash semen proof away, maybe.
Many, if not most, people hang onto the scent of anything left by a departed loved one.
Cuddle cat was washed THREE MONTHS later.
The fact that she refused to answer so many questions when being interviewed, two different dogs picked up on scents in the apartment and the car. I have never believed anyone else took Madeline. The parents are 100% to blame.
Yep and the bl00d-sniffing dog picked up a scent on the mom's clothes and the cadaver dog picked up a scent on the stuffed animal.
Exactly you'll never convince me otherwise
Same with Jonbenet Ramsay. Both rich people.
Me too but I cannot for the life of me think of why?
@@silvio.r8443 nah there’s no way John Ramsay would have went down to the basement on the police’s request if they knew she was there!
I find it hard to believe that as a mother you wouldn’t see the risk of leaving the children alone. Not just the risk of abduction, but children fall, they choke, they can turn the hot water or a hot stove on and burn themselves, they could get up and wander off to look for their parents. I could never get past that.
I feel like something happened to Madeleine the day before and that night was a set up to cover for the parents. The friends helped them for some reason.
No one will ever convince me that these people did not kill Madeleine even if it was accidental they absolutely should have been charged for neglect at the very least.
Agreed. No matter what happened, they’re responsible for what happened to Madeleine.
So do you think that a pair of doctors don't know how to get doses right, or do you think they just straight up committed first degree murder?
Occams razor. They didn't do it because there are too many risks to either murdering or just hiding a body in a foreign country they have no familiarity with.
Did they do an incredibly stupid thing? Yes. But murder? No.
Absolutely should have been charged. but then again maybe the Police thought loosing a child was punishment enough.
The fact the other kids weren’t harmed or heard anything or awoke? Even with the mum crying and screaming and running back outside to the others? I think they drugged their children to sleep, madeleine overdosed.
@@gigiamour Oh yeah, I didn't think about that! I think you're right! That, or in the very least, I think the dad was involved and maybe got paid by someone for them to take her. That was actually my theory, though the mother could be a part of it as well. But most definitely I feel like the father is guilty with the possibility of the mother having no clue. Her only guilty of being a bad mother by leaving them alone. But it's most definitely one of the two!
I feel like they did a Casey Anthony; drugged the child so they could go out drinking, came home and found the child dead, panicked and hid the body.
Yes! This crossed my mind too. 🙌🏻
The child was taken and the parents were complicit. The unlocked doors were meant for easy access.
The police dogs detected blood in their room and trunk. A neighbor also mentioned they heared a child crying at night. It was probably at that time when they left maddie. She had an accident while on her own.
Possible, but where did they put her? They've searched everywhere
@@debral9651 Who knows? Probably the same place any killer would put a child, somewhere hard to find. I still think they will eventually find her remains.
PS: Another thing that strikes me as odd is the way that the parents describe their daughter at the beginning. Instead of saying something like she had lovely eyes and a radiant personality, they say that she had a round head and a compact body! WTF?
They didn't like her much. Other youtubers making videos about this case have also noticed that.
They described her as iff she was for sale ? Explaining the details to a buyer ?
@@stecartmel well she would already have been sold when they described her that way in the interview, but it does indicate what sort of features they thought gave Maddie value
Is that suspicious according to the case
@@sonyavincent7450but is that suspicious according to the case
I’m a parent. I went to resorts when my daughter was young. We NEVER left her alone in a room. NEVER.
They’re guilty of something.
My son went missing in a supermarket for 3 minutes I thought I was going to take a heart attack my brain went into total panic mode lucky we found our child sitting in a toy carnival car if this was my child I would not care about myself all I would want was to find her not play tennis or jog
Nobody would do it. They did it in purpose. So they can scream " They took her.....woops...
They were never panicking. They were grieving, sad, confused. But never panicking. Every parent whose child disappears would be absolutely panicky if they did not know what happened. That's because they knew what happened. Whatever it was.
Yes, i see a grieving mother for her dead child
I saw Sonia Poulton say that. A mother who didn’t know who had her child and what was happening to them would be terrified and going crazy.
Child endangerment; Period! Who’s there if your child is choking? No one! Seconds count!
Or having a seizure, a fall, so many possible things. Absolutely wrong. They at the very least put their own partying above simple care for their children.
@@justkiddin84Yep. My mind always goes to house fire. Can you imagine being 200 feet away from your 3 tiny children in the situation of a fire?! These were highly educated people. I can only conclude that the children’s safety was a low priority. There was babysitting service available, but they elected not to use it. I don’t think anyone’s really buying the idea that they were all constantly checking on their kids, either.
@@trishs4503 Their priority for them on that holiday was swinging!
Why would your child be choking in their sleep. They obviously thought they were safe & checking them was enough. Now they will pay for that forever.
Kate is an anaesthesiologist. They sedated/chemically-restrained her. That’s why they were so comfortable going boozing and eating in ‘peace’ (even though it’s a child-friendly resort and the kids could have slept at the restaurant table in their biggies…or one of them could have stayed home , instead of having a Jack-in-the-box dining experience!) Madeline was very tired (could be liver-failure onset)
The leaving the kids alone in an open apartment gives plausibility to an abduction scenario…even though abduction by strangers is very rare, and she’s not the target age-profile. They need her to have been taken, and BE MISSING for long enough that IF SHE’S FOUND and a special forensic exam is done, any sedation chemicals aim the hair, or long-term reservoirs, can be attributed to the kidnappers…also any CHRONIC abuse on the body will also be attributed to the abductors! Plus…no body, no evidence! There was no option to have an ‘accidental death’ because of chronic abuse
The whole case was odd, but I have always found that Madeleine's stuffed animal being washed, struck a very weird flat note with me.
@@kitzzybitz6058 right! I couldn’t even imagine trying to wash something like that in those circumstances. I’d want that smell forever.
@@emilybee2825 True.
The father sat on his balcony talking to his friend, drinking coffee and laughing. Two days after Madeleine disappeared. Very strange parents
@@melgb7980 There is something that doesn't ring true.
@@melgb7980oh no!!!!😮😮😮
I can't comprehend how a Mother could sit and calmly talk about her missing child without breaking down, or without shedding a single tear or not messing up on details..far too controlled, the Dad? Well he looks like he lost a shoe😤
.. a red shoe perhaps.
@@quantisedspace7047 Yes!! Absolutely, you are right
That photo isn’t him.
He’s still untrustworthy though
He does! Especially when he's asked "did you kill your daughter?" He casually answers, no, never, as if they asked, did you leave that shoe at the gym.
@@MissJensk1 You are spot on, it makes me so frustrated, there is no remorse, grieving or any emotional response and I can't comprehend it!
I feel for their remaining children. They’re grown now, and I can’t help but wonder how they feel about it all. They wouldn’t even remember their sister, but may be torn between emotionally believing their parents’ story and intellectually understanding the problems with it.
I often thought that I’d they have a hair sample now could any sedatives still be found?
@@loislane9826 even hair from an old comb of hers wouldn't have any chemical trace, presumably because it was used before any alleged incident?
What must it have been like at School, with all their peers constantly speculating about what happened?
No matter what people say emotions cannot be controlled when your 3 year old is missing, you just cannot comply with such a request.
And their descriptions of Madeline were creepy and only mentioned her looks....not the way parents would describe their missing almost 4 year old child.
they called her 'compact'.. what
Exactly - what does that even mean?
@@JaxTeller123 It makes me think that her body was small enough to stuff in a duffle bag.
They are cold fish. It's hard to believe a single word they say. I take it all neighbours were interviewed?
yeah... with the description of the shape of her head? Kind of creepy?
When this broke, I think I was a teen, and I was flabbergasted as to why these parents would leave their young child alone, in a foreign hotel with their door unlocked. And I was a teen with NO children and I thought that was quite odd. Though I remember someone close to me making excuses for them. I wasn't buying it though. They were shit parents for doing that. You just don't leave your child alone, ever.
You were also a smart teen.
I was in my early 20s with no kids and was also baffled that they did that.
I was just about to turn 17 when this event occurred. I can guarantee you that even as a teenager, I would not have left a 4 yo alone with her 2 yo siblings
Plus the twins!
When the news item came on Sky News that morning, I just assumed that they were going to segue into some context and explanation as to how the children ended up unattended. But this explanation or acknowledgement never came.
I was left confused and just assumed it was a reference to some soap opera of which I wasnt aware.
Then people started talking about it all over the following days and weeks; I could not understand why everyone wa taking it seriously. It was obviously fake.
"did you kill your daughter?"
"no. No. Never."
Never?!?!
It's not like you could have killed her more than once, mate!
The darting of his eyes too. WTF?
Gerry usually says”there’s no evidence We killed Madeleine.”
He's incredibly difficult to warm to.
@@26doolittle Back in the day when it was all happening there was an interview where he said "show me her body and prove that we killed her". I've tried to find it again over the years but it appears to have been scrubbed from the internet. Imagine saying that about your baby and not showing any emotion.
There were a zillion red flags during their interviews..and yet ,they were never charged for neglect leading to the death of their child and hiding her body while lying all along, it should have been 10 years of jail
😮
I was just shy of 18 when Maddie went missing & I recall turning to my parents as we were watching the first interview with her parents, saying "It was them." My opinion has never changed.
If that was so-- wouldn't the parents have been carrying on with big hysterices? If you just think about it seriously for a minute .... Many people-- I am one-- feel they can't do anything except hold on. All your strength goes into just to holding on. Esp. in public, and drs esp. have had to get good at this.
@@amberspaulding So you actually believe the Mcscams are innocent 😇?
Many years ago when my child was 2 years old we were in Portugal (a different resort) and on ONE occasion we went out to dine. The hotel owner's daughter; who was training to be a children's nurse, offered to babysit and we paid her to stay in the room with our toddler. I can tell you that I ate my meal quickly and just wanted to get back to my son. I was not an especially possessive mother, He went to stay with my parents and in-laws back in the UK and attended nursery twice a week when he was three. The babysitter was absolutely lovely it was just that I did not feel right leaving my child on holiday with a stranger in a strange country.
Never understood people that do that. For having a "quick meal" just order and have dinner with your kids.
Knowing what ring is able to do to get a child, I would NEVER leave my children with hotel babysitter or nurse or else.
So why did you leave your child with a stranger if it didn't feel right?
That's weird to me too. What's a possessive mother? It's called a mother. Maybe this kind of mother who thinks that not leaving children with strangers is possessiveness?
That's the mother's who clearly have very little to no motherly instinct
@@TerriParkinson There is a raft of differences between something being perfectly safe and okay and the parent not feeling right about it. Possessive or anxious parents don't feel right about leaving their children with anyone, including when the child attends school, and this is unhealthy. Because of what I did for a living I recognised this and made a compromise with myself but it did not alter the fact that I didn't dally over my meal but neither did I gobble it down as if it was my last.
A child under 7 years old alone in the hotel room while I go drinking? Absolutely not!!!! Would never do that!
Under 16. And 18 for some.
3 children under 7
The twins were ? 13 months old I think, Maddie only 3. It’s unbelievable they left the babies too!
Two year old twins and a three year old!
@@sugarplumk2381 ABSOLUTELY NOT this is terrible!
Why did they not look for her EVERY SINGLE DAY? It’s as if they resigned themselves to the fact that she was gone. That is NOT NORMAL. They should have been begging the kidnapper to bring her back. But nothing???!!!!
They forgot to be motivated enough to look for their daughter who they knew was not going to be found.
Gerry SLEPT whilst others searched. Who do you know that can sleep in this scenario in the first 2,3 or 4 days?
No-one that's who.
They legit went on a run THE NEXT MORNING. The dad went to another tennis lesson. WHO DOES THAT??? These people are freaks.
More to the point, they didn't even make any attempt to conceal their lack of interest. We also see this with the 'ask the dogs' quip, with the nonchalant lollipop thing, with K complaining about being driven too fast to a live sighting.
If two out of three children are still there, why assume that the one missing was abducted? Especially considering that they left the door open. I would immediately think she had wandered out, possibly looking for her parents.
I don"t even feel comfortable going outside to take down trash at home while my kids are asleep... let alone somewhere unknown...
I don't even leave my kids in our backyard alone let alone sleeping in a hotel room by themselves sleeping in a foreign country!
I've just said the exact same thing talking about this with my husband
I bring my monitor with me whenever I do that. The anxiety is so bad 😅😂
Really? Taking the trash out?
@@cynthiaonofrio9203 could be that they live in an apartment complex 🤔
I don't need investigators to find out what happened. It's their fault. Plain and simple. First of all they leave their little children alone, they go to have dinner and drinks? She died because of neglect, somehow. Maybe we'll never know. They're guilty of neglect and child endangerment at least!!! They need to be in jail for being the worst selfish parents in the world
She died in the apartment 24hrs earlier during which time they ALL got the story straight. However, the parents told us..."She died by an accident " and "We hid her body incredibly well " Most people would be Absolutely Devistated but they seem totally indifferent.
I don't believe for a second that two doctors have not heard the horrendous things that happen to kids when unattended or abused etc.
They know, they had to play united front for the sake of theirs kids who are alive. Hopefully, we'll get death bed confession.
I have to doubt the likelihood of getting any sort of confirmation of their guilt, they’re too narcissistic and self-deferential. I could see, however, perhaps one of the other Tapas group members saying something.
@@mads597or very possibly the twins who are now adults. If they know what happened to their sister I'm pretty sure they'll slip up.
If they don't, wouldn't you think they would try to find out?
What is your source for assuming they are both doctors?
@@quantisedspace7047 This comment is confusing. Speaking of her parents, it's been said many times in the press that he is a cardiologist and she is/was a GP, so it's not an assumption. They work in the medical profession. 🤔
All these years I never saw the pair shed a tear or show any real emotion,but for annoyance or discomfort at questions.Whats going on? Just doesn't seem normal.
I won’t even leave my napping child in our locked home while I am elsewhere on the property. It boggles my mind.
Yeah, because it's 2024, and cases like this caused our society to be more aware. My grandmother left me for hours in a hotel LOBBY in a foreign country when I was like 10. Back then, it was commonplace
Yeah, because the minute I walk outside and start doing something he's wide awake 😂. Whether he's been asleep for 10 minutes or an hour, he'll be awake as soon as he senses he's inside alone.
@@SavageMinnow Leaving a 10 old in a hotel lobby is a completely different situation. A 10 year old can be instructed about staying there, not talking to strangers and going to hotel lobby staff if there is an issue.
It was the 90s. People really didn't care back then. The parents of that generation were always left at home alone when they were young
@@SavageMinnow Ok, but that doesn't mean it was commonplace just because she did that to you. My parents are baby boomers and their parents NEVER left them alone in a hotel in a foreign country. NEVER! You can have shit parents among every generation. That doesn't mean every parent did that. Just the shit ones.
The mother thought it normal to leave 3 children under 3 in an unlocked ground floor apartment! No accountability, gaslighted to say' all parents do it" When asked about the Cadaver dogs she replied'ask the dog' I will always have my doubts due to behaviour and answers. Most of the charity money paid their mortgage and taking an author to court who proved them to lie. It speaks volumes. Social Services would get involved in such a case, but as they are middle class doctors turned a blind eye. They failed Madeline. I'm sorry, but that is how it is.
A few have mentioned some cultural differences and it being much more normalized over there
@@Hyst3ricalCha0s speaking as someone from the UK, it is not normal at all to do any of this.
When Kate said that she would never stop looking for Madeline I wondered about her motivation for saying that. I think eventually parents have to return to "normality" especially if they have other children. I wondered if her motivation was financial, she has never returned to work and they have paid their mortgage and happily accepted all the donations that would stop coming in if she "atopped looking".
@@GeoffreyPeas If anything the parents I have met from the UK have tended to be overprotective of their children...
Also speaking as someone from the uk, when this happened it was very common for English people to leave their children in hotel rooms on holiday, it use to disturb me seeing adults drinking at night carrying around the walkie talkie type monitors telling people their kids were asleep in the room. It's no longer common since this case! But it definitely was cmmon! Maybe not all brits or even most but definitely a good few. I saw this first hand on two different holidays. One in Spain and one in Turkey. Even trusting other brits abroad when they've just met them sharing the fact their kids are sleeping within ear shot of strangers and waiters etc.
The resort had childcare services but they still left the kids alone in the room. That alone is criminal. If they were drugged, like given cold medicine to make them sleep then these parents should be in jail. I personally think they gave all the kids something to make them drowsy and maybe gave too much to Madeline.
The apple does not fall far from the tree
I have 5 children, now adults. When you asked all parents watching to picture the scenario, using their own children, the image came to me and a lightning bolt of fear went through my body. I would never have gone ANYWHERE in a foreign country without those kids within my physical line of sight. All of the parents involved were very neglectful. I guess it is possible to have amazing academic titles and be critical thinkers, yet have no common sense at all (not to mention street smarts).
it's not even someone coming in but the kids could hurt themselves? kids tend to wake up in the night, they are in an unfamiliar place and could hurt themselves with basically everything? it's just pure negligence and so selfish behaviour
An anesthetist would of course know that an oversedated child who has eaten at bedtime is in danger of choking on their own vomit.
Open airways. Check.
A baby with colic may have been sedated from birth for their parents convenience. This may have been a nightly routine for this already frail child.
Thousands of other times their children had never awoken at night.
In the Portugese childcare however the children would have been put down for an extended siesta and that coupled with the disruption of travel would have extended their bedtime and their parents irritation and need for an alcohol top up.
Describing her perfectly shaped head , beautiful instead f describing how beautiful he acted, gives me the creeps.
Fits with the evidence pointing to an accident, maybe a fatal fall and her skull got hurt
My child is near 11 and for the first time ever, I went to the shop and left them in the house. I was away 15 minutes max. I can not for the life of me understand how they could leave 3 very young children alone at night in an unlocked apartment and not be called out for neglect and endangerment etc.
Huh ? An 11yo had never been in the house alone before ?
You never saw Kate with red eyes and no make up, EVER ,says a lot. They never said that they felt guilty for leaving them either, I would never forgive myself and I’m sure I’m not the only one who would be blaming themselves, but not those two
That denial from Gerry at 36 mins is one of the least plausible denials I have ever seen. It kind of screams guilt about something. It's a verbal disaster.
I do not have children, but the thought of leaving any child so young unsupervised in a room that isn't locked, never sounded right to me. Looking at the map and the explanaition 'it is in our line of sight' is so odd as well. There is a whole pool inbetween them and the room! Even if you would see something odd - that one of them would be looking in the direction of the room at all times during dinner is also completely ridiculous - it is not like they could have quickly apprehended the person/persons entering/coming out of the room. Or stop their daughter from leaving the room and wandering around the area because she might be looking for her parents when woken up by a bad dream or something. It is just so unreasonable!
As a parent to a 3year old if I go shower and no one else is home I lock all the doors and windows and have my kid knock on my door if they need anything. I can’t imagine how they thought that would be safe at all.
I used to put my kids in the playpen if I had to take a shower. I didn't even trust them walking around on their own. Doors and windows locked, too.
Mom here. NO. You DONT leave your children alone in a strange place.
I can see where the temptation comes from. You spend all day watching them and catering to them, and once they're in bed you want you time and,/or adult time. But that's just too bad. You don't get to do that at the expense of your child's safety. You just don't. You'll live. They won't be little kids forever. You suck it up until they're a lot older.
Imagining myself leaving my child totally alone in a resort room to go to a bar with my friends in a foreign country literally makes me nauseous. How do you even enjoy yourself like that?
Exactly. Speaks volumes
I would never leave my small children unattended in a hotel room. I can say this with complete confidence.
My children are grown and I can say that I never left them anywhere alone when they were small, or even when they were pre-teens to early teens. Never. Too many things can go wrong.
It's just so weird that they can't bring themselves to acknowledge the error in judgement leaving their children alone.
The news on social media is that the twins no longer believe their parents ridiculous account of what happened that night.
They must have realised that they too were left alone in an unlocked apartment for five nights in a row and could so easily have disappeared too.
I think Sean will be the one to stand up to his father and persuade him to tell the truth for Maddie's sake.
I have 7 kiddos & i would NEVERRRRR even think of doing that! Absolutely not. It's bad enough when people do it just to run out somewhere. But doing it in a foreign country with multiple children all under the age of three is absolutely absurd & horrible parenting.
Can't you just say kids? Saying kiddos sounds so disrespectful towards them. Like they are inhuman.
How? What? @@wintermoon7003
@@wintermoon7003 why is kiddo disrespectful and kid isn't?????
@wintermoon7003 Actually, kids are baby goats. In the British Isles, we prefer 'children'.
@@wintermoon7003 ~Saying kiddos is absolutely not disrespectful. You're acting like I said I've got a pack of 7 wild dogs🙄
the parents hasn't spent more time and money on silencing their critics than they have spent on looking for the kid
That’s the biggest issue. They never looked. No search parties. Nope. What parents don’t search for a missing child. It’s very simple.
I don't know what really happened, but I was there at Praia da Luz when it happened. Portuguese police also made a lot of mistakes. But man... every time I saw her passing by the shop, EVERYDAY with Madeleine's teddy hanging in her hand, idk they always acted weird... I cant say how someone should grieve, but it was off and I was young and still had that impression from the parents. Everyone was shocked, kidnappings are rare in Portugal... I wouldn't discount it tho. But deep down, sadly, after all these years in my heart I still feel like they drugged her, she woke up earlier than expected and drowsy must of bumped her head ( there were rumors they found blood behind the couch ) and passed away, and so they made her disappear to not have to face the charges of child neglect and abuse with drugging her... I feel bad for thinking this because if it's not the case I can't imagine their pain... but it's truly what I feel.
That's the theory that makes the most sense to me, too.
As soon as the Portuguese police started looking closer at them they went to the UK asap and started a smear campaign against them. They had such high -up friends that the UK authorities ended up in Portugal doing the investigation.
Also weird is how in both countries what they did was neglectful at best and yet they've never been under scrutiny or in any trouble in Portugal OR the UK.
Funny how that works when you have good connections...
Yes. I just cannot understand why they haven’t found her body.
Don’t feel bad about it - the evidence has always pointed to exactly such a scenario. I’ve always loathed the McCanns.
@@AskAlex1999Not only "no body" but no trace of her body ever having been anywhere, other than the apts and the car. That someone could transport a DB and dispose of same so completely with noone noticing is somewhat baffling, to the extent that I started considering weird stuff like time travel and alien abduction.
My cousin put her 2 year old daughter to bed with other young children in a trailer while the adults partied in another trailer, early in the morning the adults decided to go check on the kids, my cousins little daughter was gone, she had put on her little red boots and opened the door most likely wanting to find her mom, she was later found frozen in a snow bank,😢 some people are horrible parents
That's horrific.
Omg😢
💔
I would never leave my children unattended at that age, for any reason. Even if I knew everything was locked tight, checking it myself to make sure it was. There's still too many things that could happen. What if they wake up and have a stomach ache? A bad dream? Trip and fall looking for water, or the bathroom? Look for you when you're not there, then wander outside. What if there's a fire? Nope. If nothing else, they are guilty of neglect and child endangerment. I'm not sure about mom, but dad? Yeah, something's off about him.
I would NEVER EVER EVER EVER leave my children alone like that. I don’t think most parents ever would. 🤦🏻♀️
And that is WHY they did it. To tell everyone - "She was taken, they took her...." and so many ppl only concentrate on it:
How they could leave them alone in the room ?
Madeline unfortunately had dumb and dumber for parents. Idk what happened to that sweet lil girl but these 2 failed her
The strangest thing about Katie's description of what she thought and did when she realised Maddie was missing is that she doesn't mention the other kids. The first thing any parent would do is check on the other kids. Then she leaves the two babies in a room alone when her eldest child has just gone missing, runs all the way back to the restaurant to raise the alarm.
I think it’s fair to say that it’s beyond obvious that the parents know exactly what happened to Madeline and unfortunately it’s another botched investigation. Kind of reminds me of Summer Wells 👀
Beyond obvious, yes but there are still people who don't get it. What on earth is wrong with these people who can keep such a contradiction in their head ?
I would be worried my child would wake up and get out of the room somehow, so no, I would not leave them alone in the room.
There is absolutely NO evidence of an abduction only KM's say so. Well she wasn't there at the time, she was out on the lash with her husband and their pals so why is this THEORY given anymore credence than any other? She wasn't there - the same way you or I weren't there so how can SHE KNOW the child was abducted ? The whole story is bs and just doesn't stand up to any kind of scrutiny.
It's so strange that both of them get more animated and find it harder to contain their emotions when discussing their potential guilt than in discussing Maddie being disappeared and possibly (most likely IMO) dead.
It's BS that leaving the kids in the room didn't seem risky to them or they wouldn't have bothered checking on them at all.
That’s what I said too-but I guess We only have their word they checked on them at all,I really don’t beleive anything they say .I think they were all. Peados and something went horribly wrong while one of the men were doing something to maddy ,that’s why there is such a pact of silence among this tapas looneys
Im portuguese and lived all my life with shutters, and one thing I can guarantee, no one can open the shutters from the outside without breaking them... it's mechanism wouldn't let you lift the shutters at the point someone passes through them...
I live in a calm part of Europe, smaller town, and I know my neighbours and I STILL lock my door when I live my 11 year old alone to walk the dog. And I bring my phone so he can call if something happens. I would never in my life have left a small child alone at night with unlocked doors at a foreign place at a hotel to go out drinking at night. Never ever.
Absolutely not. I would never leave my children unattended in a resort period.
And the parents try to make it sound as if they were so close (as if you were having dinner in your backyard) and the real distance was SO far.
@10:50 Kate says, "the kids won't be disruptive" when talking about leaving them alone to go out.
So...
1. The sniffer dogs detected a disturbance in the apartment such as blood.
2.They detected a disturbance in the trunk of the parents car
3. When madeleines parents heard that the police were coming to have a look around in their family home her mother decided to wash Madeleines favourite toy... Not only with water but BLEACH and the dogs still picked up a scent.
4. Madeleines mum claims that the windows were closed but they left the door slightly open... When she went to check up on Madeleine the time she was missing the window was now opened set up perfectly so she can claim her daughter has been adducted... GUESS WHAT her mothers fingerprints were the only ones that were found on the window.
5. When Madeleines mother were asked what she thinks about what the dogs found instead of having sympathy she turned around and responded with 'why dont you ask the dogs, they supposedly found it'
6. Madeleines mother wrote in her book that shes imagining Madeleines beautiful private parts being destroyed.
7. For fuck sake look at her parents faces theyre psychopaths. Not once have i seen them cry, change their facial expression, broken voices or even act in any way where you think two parents would react.
8. Only 3/4 days after Madeleine went missing worldwide her parents were the only ones that wasnt searching for her. When they got asked why, they claimed they were tired.... TIRED?! But yet her father was found going back to her daily activities and her mother were spotted going on jogs!
Exactly! They are two psychos!
Jordan your observations spot on.!💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯
In a resort I imagine you could have food delivered and probably drinks as well. If not, one person could've went to get food and drinks while the other stayed with the kids. This is just so inexcusable and frustrating. They could've even paid for a sitter to go on the trip with them to watch the kids. This was SO avoidable in so many ways which leads me to believe that the parents had something to do with it.
The hotel even offers childcare.
Yes, this hotel did offer child care.
You haven't looked into this case for a single second or you would have the answers to these questions.
In Portugal, it's pretty common for kids to go out to dinner with their parents. It wouldn't have bothered anyone to have them there in the restaurant.
I lived in Hawaii for 20 years. People do extremely stupid things on vacation. For some reason they feel safer at a resort than they would at home.
Ive always thought that they sedated their kids. One night when M woke up she asked her mom in the morning where her mom went and was scared her parents were not there( in moms statement) then the next night she didn’t want her daughter to wake up when they went to go get drunk that far away from the hotel so she gave her more of the sedative so she wouldn’t wake up and accidentally overdosed her ( in my opinion)They were both drs so of course they thought they could get away with it.
Yeah, and it was really interesting that the twins never woke up despite all the commotion.
@@BellaLeoLicorice exactly! Interesting isn’t it..
I agree, although possibly Maddie did manage to half wake up, climbed onto the settee to look out the window and possibly see mummy and daddy. She fell down the back of it, died. That's why the cadaver dog got excited.
Assuming the why didn’t you come when I was crying conversation was true. She didn’t necessarily disappear/die when they claim she did.
First interview after 3 weeks of disappearing Madeleine they were clearly relieved that nobody suspected them.
Plan was successful. Kate looked radiant with perfect makeup.
The way Kate is describing them as a perfect family, with a smile on her face, happy voice….I would get so emotional if I had to remember once we were happy and now we are not. Ask any other family who lost a child recently, and talking about before, would make them so sad.
And the description of her as a doll, her proportions, headshape (and even worse in the book: her genitalia😱😱)……wtf?
I don't have kids either, Logan. But any reasonable person knows you don't leave kids in a foreign country in an unlocked room.
Even if her being abducted wasn't an issue. Kids still get hurt. Terrible parenting to say the least.
They were all intoxicated and made some really poor choices. While they didn't deserve to lose their child, it was just stupid.
Madeleine deserved better parents. No matter what happened, they’re responsible for everything that happened to her.
One the waiters at the tapas said not ne of them left at anytime to check the kids
They didn't know they had small children to tend to when they chose to become intoxicated? That's a sorry excuse.
They made the decision every day of their holiday, so presumably before they were intoxicated - unless they spent every minute of every day, from the moment of arrival, drunk
Bro, they killed her, wtf are you on about? They sedated the kids so they could drink and swing, the kid woke up and looked for the parents, being very drowsy she fell and died, she was found dead hours later AND they DISPOSED of her!!
They are doctors, they know biology and chemistry, they got rid of the body with the help of their friends.
The UK government protected these murderous parents and covered it all up, the question here is WHY??? What's there to protect? Why did they get protected that way? Who was looking after them so they aren't jailed for the rest of their lives??
So I have three children all in the same room. I return and think one of the children has just been abducted from the room. I run out of the room and out of the building, leaving my other two smaller sleeping children in the room that their sibling was just abducted out of. What mother would leave their two remaining children behind, alone and helpless in the danger zone. No mothering instinct or connection evident at all. At the least narcissistic but more likely much darker than that
Also it’s Gerry as you’d say Jerry, not Garry.
That was driving me insane
This was so annoying
I kept correcting him through my screen 😂
Yep was so irritating.
Kinda shows how closely he listens to what they're saying...
I have to say in the 90's, kids we were left alone way more often than now. For kids under 3 it is soo reckless though and the whole thing about being sure your kid has been taken when you didn't even check around if she got lost trying to get to you.... weird
I had little kids in the 90s. I never would have dreamed of leaving them alone.
The investigator implied that Gerry was sexually abusing Maddy.
What gets me is they knew they were going out for a while- like more than an hour right? It’s odd to me that they wouldn’t be stressing and worrying the whole time
As a mother, I would NEVER be able to forgive myself for leaving them alone and I never saw an ounce of remorse from either of them . Completely unnatural response and v v dodgy
They left their tiny children alone, at night, in the dark, to go drinking/eating/socialising. Even if they did not physically harm Maddy, they are absolutely to blame for what happened. No excuses. Take accountability. This resulted from the parents actions and their actions alone.
"thats an emphatic 'no'". Literally who talks like that? Not natural speech at all.
I have two unrelated friends from the UK who have told me that their parents left them alone in hotel rooms while on vacation when they were young children. They both say it used to be a common thing. As a parent myself, I find this to be absolutely insane. There are just too many risks and I would never leave children unsupervised.
It has never been common in the uk to leave children alone now or in the past , your friends experience was unusual ,
I have children and I have been abroad and ate outside with family and friends. My children come with us; we take prams and if tired there is the pram for them to sleep while we eat or they can sleep in my arms if they prefer that. It may be noisy yes, it may be late yes, but we are all on holiday and not sticking to any bedtime routine. We leave the hotel room together and come back to the hotel room together period.
As a parent if something happens to your children the first person you blame is yourself, if only I'd done etc. Never believed these two are unaware of what happened to Madeline. Also they described her as an object not a personality 🤔. 🙏❤️
I would absolutely not abandon my children in unlocked apartment to go drinking… what the hell is wrong with them?
Yes I find it strange that she immediately said that Madeleine was taken. I think I would have run out the room for help saying I cannot find my daughter.
"If you're happy and you know it" seems like an odd song to be singing to a tired little one that you are tucking into bed. That is not a soothing song - that's a playtime morning/middle of the day song. Kate's face gets sad as she says that part.
I wouldn't leave my child alone. It would be pure anxiety and worry until I was back.
My youngest is almost 17 now but when my 3 daughters were very young I didn't use the bathroom without them. If I had to check the mailbox I would take them with me. My choice not theirs. I could never and would never leave my house even to grab something for 5 seconds without my babies. I don't know anyone who could do that and I know dozens of parents. I used to run a daycare for years. Unthinkable for any loving parent.
On Thursday morning they said Madeleine came to them both .Madeleine said we're were you when I was crying the night before Wednesday. The mccanns related this bit of the story to an interviewer in an interviewer. They told the interviewer and get this I quote "WE THOUGHT WAS IT WHEN THEY WERE HAVING THEIR BATH".Take that in why would Madeleine go to them on Thursday morning .To tell her parents she was crying the night before on Wednesday. Why would her parents think was it when she was having her bath .They'd know Madeleine cried the night before during bathtime because surely they'd be bathing her .Unless of course a third person bathed her and her parents didn't
Thanks for taking a look at these again! I’m sure it was no kidnapping, so it’s crazy that the world is still searching for Madeleine 😢. It must be tough to keep on pretending for them.
Look at Casey Anthony , she has no problem making documentaries and portraying herself as a victim versus speaking up or looking for Caley ,,, these people believe their own lies 🤮🤢
A couple of years ago, I attended a wedding in Luz and walked past the complex where she disappeared. The area felt very exposed, especially since the apartment is on a corner with a gate leading directly to it. Additionally, the view from the restaurant where they were dining seemed too far away to have a clear line of sight to the apartment. I feel sorry for their loss but they were so irresponsible 😢
Ask any dog owner If they would leave the dog alone in an unlocked room - never!
If you haven’t seen anything about “The Foreign Detective” you better check him out as he’s blowing this case wide open as we speak! The book, The Sudden Impulse, is out! I’m not a creator or a sponsor or anything but I think he’s got it and he’s got proof from what I can tell! 😮
As for leaving my kid alone in a resort that has babysitters and personal sleep minders and a crèche and all the money these doctors seem to have…I don’t buy it for a minute that even they thought this was okay. It’s always been a weird addition to an already weird case and it always will be, no matter how much they try and deny or claim it jUsT NeVeR OcCuReD tO uS!🤦♀️
I leave my 12 year old son home alone for very brief periods of time in a locked house with a pit bull for protection. No way would I ever leave babies unattended. I believe they covered up an accident and concocted the abduction to save their professional images, not realising it would never go away because we all want to know what happened to that baby.
These people are plain weird. You never ever leave such small children alone in a building with the doors unlocked anywhere. Ever. There is no guarantee they won't wake up, for one thing, unless they've been drugged. Furthermore, they seem to be more interested in their daughter's appearance rather than in who she was. It's all very odd and shallow to me.
My kids are 17 and 20 now but when they were littles omg no I'd never leave them alone not at home, in the car, on vacation.. you never know what's going to happen, accidents happen, fires happen, choking, kids wandering off looking for you, strangers showing up, the list goes on.. so many things! Who in their right mind does that???
There's some interesting information out there that's well worth looking into. No one thinks she was murdered, but an accidental death covered up means there's something more damaging that they're worried about.
@@mxclaireharris agreed! I think they accidentally overdosed her.
@@emilybee2825 the amount of blood that was found there it's more likely she had a fall and bled out. They say in one interview (might be this one) they seemed surprised how well the twins slept through it all which suggests they weren't used to dosing them up, as much as they claim to do it often. If they were dosing then it would be mean manslaughter not an accident.
@@mxclaireharris dude she might have been so drugged up she was dizzy and hit her head. I’m not saying I have a perfect theory but I definitely think the parents are responsible one way or another
@@emilybee2825 it would have still been manslaughter chick. She bled out a lot, there's no reason to add drugs into it.
You think 2 doctors don't know how to figure out dosing for a child?
I would not leave children unattended bc the truth is ANYTHING could happen. I assume this is common sense but I might be wrong.
What I fail to get my head around is WHY, when Kate discovered Madfie gone, did she leave the twins to summon help. Makes ABSOLUTELY NO SENSE!!!!!
Easy. That didn't happen.
Why weren't they charged with at least child neglect and endangerment??? They medicated and left their children alone without childcare while they were gone hanging out with friends. If they weren't doctors, they would have been charged immediately. There was BLOOD found on the window sill and tiles in their vacation apartment and the dogs indicated a dead body had been in their bedroom. This case reeks to high heaven.
