News from Germany re MM

[Greenleavesawash]

AIBU for thinking that whilst I truly hope this development is a positive lead that will result in some resolution I can’t help questioning the timing?

[JudithGrimes]

Eh?!

[NotEverythingIsBlackandWhite]

What is MM?

[Croprotationinthe14thcentury]

???

[Doggybiccys]

Madeline McCann?

[BroomHandledMouser]

Madeline McCann

[JudithGrimes]

I thought you meant Meghan Markle!

I am going to be cynical realistic and say that imo it just looks like that they needed to do something so case can stay live.
Quite strong reactions to it explaining how other parents would be probably prosecuted for neglect if they left their child alone in an apartment in different country, like for example Portugal.
hint hint about who is MM

Same. There's another thread going, OP.

Man x posted😂

[LaurieMarlow]

Madeleine McCann. Seems extraordinary to have a lead after this long, but who knows?

[Greenleavesawash]

Apologies for not being clear I understand it can cause threads to disappear if named specifically but see already thread in chat though not re timings but feel free to report

Why is the timing suspect?

@GreenleavesawashThere was already a thread on this,why start another one,the other one has far more replies.Did you even check,so irritating when there are several threads on the same subject.

I will hide this one.

[TheFencePainter]

Why is the timing suspect?

Because last year in june they were given 12 months of funding. I haven't seen anywhere same this year. Yet

[SunbathingDragon]

Perhaps they waited until now to maximise the amount of time they had with that spending.

Hopefully there will be an answer at the end of all of this.

[mumwon]

totally confused I thought chocolate (mms ???)

[Greenleavesawash]

480Widdio - knock yourself out - I’ve already said I wasn’t aware there’s another thread no need for aggressive tone

[TheFencePainter]

I guess book sales will pick up again...

[hotubhannah]

Some of you are so cynical. OP a was merely being empathetic. This is a tragedy which ever way you look at it. I'm so sad about this case

[JesusInTheCabbageVan]

@hotubhannah how is OP being empathetic?

[hotubhannah]

Oh take it back after reading last line 😂

[Greenleavesawash]

hotubhannah - you can be both you know! Neither is mutually exclusive

[Neome]

I thought differently about the timing. I wondered if the pandemic situation had changed, for example, who might be willing to come forward with information.

Or if the general drop in crime during lockdown has freed up investigative time to follow things up.
