I think some of the posts are very critical of the McCann’s and I do believe if they had been a working class family it would have been much worse. However, they were part of a large group, about 10, I believe, and they all left the kids asleep. They all took it in turns to check the children, going at least every 30 minutes, maybe more often than that. If memory serves me correct, one of the party checked the McCann’s children but didn’t go right into the bedroom. When Kate went some 20 minutes later Madeline had gone. I believe she had gone when the other party member checked but she didn’t realise. The abductor had a head start and it’s clear the police made a mess of the initial investigation.
I have a close friend that lives in Rothley and she’s often seen Kate and spoken to her. I remember her telling me how thin she was and had a haunted look. I can’t begin to imagine her tortured thoughts. I hope they get some closure in this lifetime.
