Maddie McCann 'snatched in botched break-in'
Cops sure they know what happened to girl
BRIT police are convinced they know what happened to Madeleine McCann – and believe they spoke to her attacker.
By Jerry Lawton / Published 28th April 2016
Detectives say they can still crack the case despite Met Commissioner Sir Bernard Hogan-Hogan saying they are only chasing one final lead before the investigation is shelved.
That theory is that the tot was snatched after disturbing burglars who had been targeting the Portuguese holiday block where she was staying.
Police believe three suspects they have been pursuing hold the key to the nine-year mystery.
The trio have already been declared arguidos – or suspects – and were interviewed at least twice.
They are linked by a series of phone calls they made to each other near the McCanns’ apartment around the time she vanished.
A source said: “This remaining lead is thought to be key.”
The suspects are Jose Carlos da Silva, 30, who used to drive guests to their apartments at the Ocean Club resort in Praia da Luz from where Madeleine vanished, drifter Ricardo Rodrigues, 24, and drug addict Paulo Ribeiro, 53.
Da Silva made no mention of the calls or texts when he was questioned by police in 2007.
Rodrigues is also suspected of collecting cash for a non-existent orphanage just 100 metres from the McCanns’ apartment at 4pm on the day Madeleine, then three, disappeared.
Criminal psychologist Heriberto Janosch González says he tipped off police about da Silva and Rodrigues in 2013.
He said: “I view the events not as a kidnapping but as a theft that escalated.”

@K9Truth @JerryLawton What a load of nonsense, 3 burglars, 1 aged 15, committed the crime of the century? #mccann
Why on earth does she think Madeleine's disappearance is 'the crime of the century'?
As with most things, the solution is almost certainly simple. Which means it does NOT involve fridges, coffins, 'faked photos', international conspiracies or POLITICAL INTERFERENCE.
A handful of local criminals, an incompetent police officer, soon to be disgraced, nasty ex-pats that care more about their property prices than children - it really wouldn't take very much for even the most incompetent child abductor/s to get away scot free.
Just think of how all the ex-pats denied holidaying children had been attacked previously - only for the PJ themselves to confirm that there had indeed been victims.
15 year old burglar? What's so strange about that? Two 11 years olds boys murdered James Bulger. Sykes
