Everyone is agreeing!
Whatever - does anyone know anything about internet libel? I am just thinking that given the circumstances, maybe we should protect ourselves by prefacing our opinions with words and phrases like 'I suspect', 'I think', ''allegedly' 'it appears' etc....
What do you think?

I'd encourage a little restraint from jumping to uninformed conclusions based on inconclusive evidence, inadequately formed opinions and 'feelings'. This case has some similarities to the Chamberlain case here in Oz years ago
The story was made into a movie with Merryl Streep as Lindy I think.
How does COMARE work?
Issues are placed before COMARE by UK Government Departments, the Scottish Parliament, the Welsh Assembly or the Northern Ireland Office. Generally, such referrals arise because there is concern over health effects that might possibly be attributed to radiation. COMARE is an independent expert advisory committee with members chosen for their medical and scientific expertise. The committee offers independent medical and scientific advice on the health effects of ionising and non-ionising radiation in the environment, whether natural or man-made. The secretariat is provided by medical, scientific and administrative staff of the Health Protection Agency's Radiation Protection Division (HPA-RPD), formerly NRPB, who are expert in their own fields. It is the secretariat's responsibility to provide the committee with data relevant to the topic under discussion.

But there is without a doubt a distinct difference here.
The MCcanns did leave their children alone in an unlocked apartment while they went to enjoy themselves.
That is so wrong on so many levels.

After watching The Truth of The Lie, I believe Maddie died as a result of a tragic accident and the parents acted in fear.

People should watch "Madeleine was Here", especially for Kate's recounting of the moment when she discovered that Madeleine was missing. I don't believe a word she says. Listen to what she says and watch her hand movements. They are very revealing.
I think this was their biggest mistake.
