hedda, I would welcome your views on this.
An Australian journalist called Mark Saunokonoko has a podcast series on the Madeleine McCann case. I dipped into one of them and he was going on about paedophiles in the UK, referring to the accusations against Sir Clement Freud as if they were reliable and saying that the McCanns were connected to a firm owned by some relative of his, as if this was suspicious. So my impression was that he was entertaining and/or spreading false allegations/conspiracy theories. He seems to have been in touch with Goncalo Amaral, the Portuguese policeman in charge of the original investigation but subsequently sacked, and it looks as if he may sympathise with his view, i.e. that the parents were responsible.
From his Twitter page:
"A LOT of Madeleine McCann noise right now. But where's the evidence against Christian B linking him to Maddie's disappearance?"
"Here's how Goncalo Amaral accurately foreshadowed today's developments more than one year ago, describing a German 'scapegoat'…"
"Quite incredible how Jim Gamble went from suspecting Gerry McCann to inviting him to speak at a CEOP conference 26 Jan 2010…"
He's apparently a senior journalist at Nine News.

This is no different to creating false accusations by appeals and compensation. It stinks!
I have also been thinking that the pub comment may have been a "joke" and there might be a risk of false allegations, especially when a reward is available.
"The joint appeal from the British, German and Portuguese police includes a £20,000 reward for information leading to the conviction of the person responsible for Madeleine's disappearance." www.bbc.com/news/uk-52916137

The McCanns knew that she couldn't have got out of the room herself, and her toy had been placed on a shelf way out of her reach.
He either couldn't be bothered to read the basic facts, or he was saying that they were lying.
