I think you will find for a moment of -yes- selfishness they have probably felt a tad punished by the outcome...

And if you think I am referring to the media then I can only guess you are being punished for a past misdeed yourself, given the mind you are currently being forced to inhabit...

They became media stars,and received millions in donations.My mind is fine thank you,I just fail to see this as any form of punishment that could possibly be a deterrent to others with such terrible parenting ideas.
Cox and the Mcanns both played the media to push their own agendas,and as such we the public have every right to be informed of the negative,as well as the positive.
I do of course accept the media will blow things up,but certainly in the Cox case there appears to be some evidence of unacceptable behaviour,would it be fair if journalists were censored from putting these in front of us? I am not talking of baseless allegations like 'Nick' here,those of course were harmful rubbish.

Without closer examination I can only say I feel terribly sorry for the McCanns and hope my theory (in my book Death Flies) is correct and Maddie is fine, well, healthy and happy living with a childless family who bought her. As far as Brendan is concerned I have no idea either but do feel this is simply times and morality being changed and adapted over time. I had a single once called Flirt. Today it would have to be called Rape.

The McCanns have been treated appalinging by the fanatics who see conspiracies everywhere.

Brendan Cox has denied the "sexual assault" (which was from years ago and already looked at) claim and that's good enough for me...and these days "inappropriate sexual conduct" can easily be "you really have nice legs" ( I would happily accept any sexual innuendos directed at me as it has been some time since I last had one )

You'd think that the loss of their child would be considered a big enough price but it seems not. Perhaps we should reintroduce hanging, drawing and quartering with front-row seats for the ultra righteous who are most appalled by them.
