Thread Name: BS: Child neglect and the law
Subject: RE: BS: Child neglect and the law
"Latest news" doesn't always mean that, as opposed to rumours. Stories that I've read have been pretty clear that there is no question of traces of blood in that car, merely DNS traces which might have been those of Madeleine, and which could have been deposited from a toy or garment.

Of course perhaps those stories are wrong too. My point is, in the absence of actual facts, as opposed to rumours, it's premature, pointless, and rather sick to go building up speculative bonfires of hate.

And if anyone is thinking, "well the police don't go naming innocent mothers as suspects", it's as well remembering the cases of the late Sally Clark and Angela Cannings who were tried and convicted and jailed for the murder of their children - only for it turn out subsequently that the "scientific" evidence and testimony on which they were convicted was complete rubbish.
