Maddy McCann's blood in hire car

[grover41]

If Maddy's blood was found in the hire car, then surely the Portuguese police should be looking for the person who had the car when Maddy disappeared?

i thought the same, 25 days after she went missing the worlds press were following their every move, they could not sneeze without it being reported not to meantion the police liaison officers from the uk and family that were constantly with them or where they were suposed to have the poor little girls body hidden for nearly 4 weeks in that heat, to me it just does not add up at all and sounds like desperation on the part of the police

I would imagine they had already done that prior to calling tthe mc canns in for their interviews...

[I.Don No]

the mc canns rellies all say that they could not have killed their daughter.......how the heck would they know.....no-one knows anyone 100%

I am not saying they did it, and then again I am not saying they didnt.

Something that puzzles me is how can they have identified a blood sample as Maddy's without having some of Maddy's actual blood to compare it to? Where could they have got some of her blood for a comparison? Or is there some other way they could identify it as hers?
I don't for one second think the parents had anything to do with her disappearance. There's no way they could have disposed of a body unnoticed, bearing in mind the intense media coverage - they've hardly been left unwatched for any length of time. I suppose it's an easy option for the police to accuse them.

this is just what i think may not be true .... i think that the parents done it i have no idea why just a funny feeling but i do feel that they are being very unfair to their other children

From what I read, Maddie is supposed to have cut her leg a short time before her disappearance, the blood is supposed to hve got on her clothes,and the suggestion is that the blood got in the car when the Mcanns were moving some of her clothes.

That in itself is iffy enough, but what i'd like to know, is the British dog that smelt 'death' on Kate, just how long does the smell of death stay on a person.

Another thing, one of our neighbours is a police sergeant dog handler, and he says that sniffer dogs are only 40% suddessful, and even then, it when they smell something, it doesn't mean that that person is guilty, which is what the Portugese police are saying.

The problem with the dogs smelling the scent of death is that Kate McCann is a doctor and had contact with 4 dead patients before their holiday. The same must go for Mr McCann who is a surgeon.

Matching samples would be easy. They would have a sample of Maddys' DNA, probably from a hairbrush. They would then match the DNA profile from the blood that was found to see if it matched.
