Why haven't they been charged with neglect?

Question

Why haven't the Mc Canns been charged with neglect. If this was a teenage mother or a single mother wouldn't they have been charged with neglect? Wouldn't we be exposed to headlines like "The Youth Of Today" or "Teenage mother left child alone in hotel room, so she could go out partying"

We should be protesting "Justice for Madeline, lock them up"

Am I Wrong?

Answer 1

No you are not

Answer 2

You're not wrong.  And what about all those people who donated money to their fund - what if the McCanns are guilty?

Answer 3

Dude I totally agree with you.

Maybe not to the extent of locking them up, but you have to admit there's a major problem with the Police that seems too "suspicious" to be true.

At first, everyone cared, now we've just had enough!

They're definitely not having the same treatment anybody else would, it's so lame.

Answer 4

who r they

Answer 5

i agree with you totally, just cos they are a couple with good jobs they are supposed to be innocent victims in all this. there is more to this than we are being told.

there was a babysiting service at the hotel and they were dumb enough to think it better to leave the kids on their own, well seen intellect and common sense don't go hand in hand.

Answer 6

What purpose would it serve? As a deterrent to others? If we accept that they played no part in the disappearance, then we should also accept that they have suffered more than enough by losing their daughter by their own negligence. As as for a deterrent - would any other parent not now be fully aware of the dangers? Any additional punishment would be unlikely to add anything to the message that leaving children unattended is dangerous.

Answer 7

no youre not wrong. They shoulda been charged with neglect long ago.

Answer 8

no

i agree

"Justice for Madeline, lock them up"

Answer 9

who knows?

people have been asking that since may last year

regardless of the disappearance of the girl, leaving small children alone, while parents party, well away from their apartment, is wicked

it is because these parents are aggressively savvy when it comes to manipulating the media......the disappearance of madeline seemed to hush up any criticism of the parents in the early days....

the criticism that came later was a reaction to the behaviour of the globetrotting and fund raising.......

edit

michael you are wrong

most people wouldn't tuck their children up in bed and go across a hotel complex to drink with their friends

they might eat with the children earlier in the evening

they might cook for themselves

they might get room service

they would probably not leave their kids.........

Answer 10

This is what, a lot of us on here want to know. Why!!!!

Answer 11

who u kiddin bro dont act dum

Answer 12

Justice for Madeleine,

They should have been charged with Neglect months ago,

They did Neglect their children ( 3 children ) on May 3rd 2007.

Answer 13

This is one of the most asked questions on here.

But yes I agree with you.

Answer 14

They can't be charged with any crime in this country as they were not in the UK at the time.  Laws in other countries could be different to the UK.

Answer 15

So where do you put your children when you stay in a hotel on holiday. ? Take them down to the restaurant 3 floors below. and let them scream their heads off because they can't sleep. Or would you tuck them up in their beds and then go down for your meal ?  That's why the McCanns have not been charged. At least they checked every 20 or 30 minutes to see if they were alright. Would you have done the same ?  I wonder.

Answer 16

No I agree with U.

Just because these people have respectable jobs they have gotten away with the charge. If they were unemployed then the police would have charged them for sure.

Answer 17

No you're not wrong, the other day there was a story in the papers about a women that left a 14 year old when she went away, she asked the child's father to check on her and left £100 worth of food in the fridge, She was prosecuted for neglect. The simple fact is money talks and Doctors it seems are simply better people than us simple folk, regardless of what lying, neglecting (leaving 3 children under the age of 4) twats they are x x

Answer 18

ur rite huney bunch

Answer 19

I agree with you.  I'd never leave a child alone without an adult in a hotel room no matter how short a distance I was going.

Answer 20

You can't charge people of one offence whilst there are other offences pending. Can't anyone see this......sheesh!!

If someone is a suspect and you took out one of the charges and dealt with that, but then lost that case everything else possibly may collapse.
