So, the search for the wreckage of MH370 has been called off.

I think you'd need to be quite cynical to believe their despair was faked and the whole thing was an act.

And Burney's mum wasn't faking anything last night, BTW.

The statistics are quite clear that the parents are always the most likely culprits when a child dies. Abduction is vanishingly rare - particularly from inside a property. Much, much more likely that her parents killed her.

And actually, their behaviour afterwards is what aroused most suspicion. They refused to co-operate fully with police and failed to answer certain key questions at a time when you'd have thought they'd do anything to get their child back. Hardly 'despair'.

And the over compensating appeals and outcry I am always suspicious of.

And they're scouse, of course. Capable of anything, that lot.

:nod: no coincidence I know the name Ken Bigley.
I don't recall any other names who may have been executed in similar fashion.
