Actually - the police in Portugal are beginning to sound more like the Keystone Kops..

Every day - they throw up a new theory...

The couple may be guilty of something — but I doubt they will ever be proved guilty by the police currently involved...

The police are once again showing they are hopelessly inept. They keep tossing out new possibilities and then hoping one sticks. 88% dna match is not strong at all. Then there is the question of how the McCanns could have kept a 3-wk old corpse undiscovered while being watched and then manage to transport that same corpse to its final hiding place in an unfamiliar country without the odor giving them away.

I think the theory that makes the most sense is that Portugal is worried about tourism and so wants to pin this on the parents no matter what the truth is, just so they can make the whole nasty thing go away.

Indeed, I think there’s reason to suspect the Portuguese police of not only incompetence, but also corruption. The guy in charge of the investigation is currently facing charges for the beating of the mother of another missing child while she was in police custody. Whose bright idea was it to put him in charge of this case? I wouldn’t be entirely surprised if the police know exactly who did it, are in touch with that person or persons, and are covering for them by framing the McCann’s. That would explain the source of all the forensic evidence that suddenly started popping up all over the place, months after Madeleine’s disappearance. The real perp(s) has/have access to the body, and are in a position to give the police access too.
