Oh, please. It took over 3 months for them to come to this conclusion? What a bunch of incompetent boobs.

Yeah - on CSI it's all over in 44 minutes plus commercials.

A sniffer dog was able to tell if she was dead or alive when she was carried from the room?
Well, I’ll be! A talking, clairvoyant sniffer dog - in Portugal, no less.

Dead bodies smell different than live bodies.

Okay, no kidding. Do you have a source for that and why that would be? It is the temp, lack of sweat, etc.?

How long would the body have to be dead for the change in smell to occur, or is this just BS?

I really don’t know, so I am interested...

You can google cadaver dogs as well as I can. You’ll find a boatload of information. It’s really pretty interesting stuff.

Ever owned a dog? Their sense of smell is pretty incredible.

Perhaps they simply didn’t wish to release this info as they didn’t want to alert the suspects that they knew where the crime had occurred.

Apparently, yes. Cadaver dogs are a subset of that class of dogs known as ‘sniffer dogs’. Pretty fascinating reading if you google it.

Then the whole story looks really fishy... because when you imagine that the girl was murdered and then her body immediately taken away, it would be minutes and not days and you would think that the scent would not differ much from the scent she had a few minutes earlier.

It probably takes some time for a body's scent to change from that of a living person to a cadaver.

Now this whole sad event transpired while her parents were merely out for a few hours with friends. It just doesn't seem like enough time for her to have begun to decompose.

Unless, of course, they now think that the parents killed her accidentally or something, later removed the body and are trying to cover it up.

That’s kind of how I read the story.

The parents have something to do with it for sure. The girl lay dead in her bed for two hours before she was removed. I have no explanation why any child abductor, child abuser etc. should act like this if he/she isn’t really closely related to the girl. Someone unrelated would either abduct the girl alive, run away with the body right after killing her (maybe not noticing she is dead), or simply run away after killing her.

My theorie is that the mother or father freaked out and beat her up so badly that blood splattered to the wall. Then didn’t knew what to do, got themselves an alibi and tossed the body into the ocean.

Unfortunately, I find this scenario believable. It would explain the stupidity of the parents (allegedly leaving children alone in a strange place while they are a loonnggg dinner) and the lack of evidence about the whereabouts of the child (nobody saw her).

Here the details:

- Brother is outside playing. Parents inside are beating Maddie up. Blood splattering to the wall. They cover the body with the blanket as if she is sleeping.

- Parents put the brother to his bed in the same room were maddie is “sleeping”. Tell him not to wake Maddie up because she is very tired and already asleep. Brother is tired from playing and falls quickly asleep.

- Parents go out dining with friends to get an alibi. Later on the father leaves the round to “look after the kids”.

- Father sneaks into the room were the brother sleeps and removes the body from the bed.

- Father rudders a few hundred yards out into the ocean and tosses the body overboard.

- Father comes back to the round and tells that Maddie is nowhere to be found.

Oddly creepy, as they said the cat didn’t seem to want to comfort them, but just wanted to watch them die.

That is so typical!!!

That is why I love dogs.....hate cats!

If there was that much blood, or wounds that severe, it smells. And I mean smells. You do not have to be a sniffer dog to smell it. Little brother would.
