Without giving an opinion of guilty or not of any wrongdoings I find some of the McCann actions/statements strange.

I have never been involved with the police or criminal investigators but have always understood that in cases of murder,abuse, assault etc. the immediate suspicion falls on close family then friends, business partners etc. (I admit most of my understanding is from TV shows, magazines etc. - some factual)
This being the case, how can Mr McCann in his 'blog' state that he never thought they would be classed as suspects.
This is a highly intelligent person in a prominent position who says this had not even crossed his mind.
His must be the only mind it has not crossed, even those on this site who are defending him must have considered it, even if just to reject the idea.
