What happened to Madeleine McCann?

Madeleine was born May 12, 2003.
She was a 3 year old Brittish toddler.
She disappeared on the evening of 3 May 2007 from her bed in a holiday apartment in Praia da Luz, in Portugal.
One newspaper called her disappearance as  "the most heavily reported missing-person case in modern history".
Her whereabouts are unknown.

Timeline
2.29 p.m.: The last photograph of Madeleine is taken at the pool.

6 p.m.: Kate takes children back to apartment.

6.30 p.m.: Gerry asks David Payne, one of the so-called "tapas seven", to check on Kate and the children at the apartment.

7 p.m.: Gerry returns to the apartment and the children are put to bed in the front bedroom overlooking the car park and beyond it, the street. 

Madeleine is placed in the single bed nearest the door. 
There is an empty bed against the opposite wall beneath the window. Between the two beds are two travel cots containing the twins.

7.30 p.m.: The McCanns shower and change.

8 p.m.: The couple share a bottle of wine together.

8.35pm: The McCanns are the first of the group to arrive at the tapas restaurant, 50 yards away from their apartment.

8.55pm: The group has ordered starters when the routine of checking on the children begins. Matt Oldfield goes to check his own apartment. 

He also tells the Paynes, who are still in their apartment, that the group is waiting for them at the restaurant.

9.05pm: Gerry returns to the apartment through the unlocked patio doors to check on the children. 
He enters the apartment and sees that the children's bedroom door, which they always left slightly ajar. 
Thinking this is odd, he glances into his own bedroom to see if Madeleine has gone into her parents' bed. 
But he sees that all three are still fast asleep where the McCanns left them. This is the last time he would see his daughter.

9.08pm: Gerry sees Jeremy Wilkins, another tourist at the resort, on the opposite side of the road as he walks back to the tapas bar and crosses over to talk. 
Wilkins and his partner are eating in their apartment since their youngest child will not settle. 

9.10pm: Jane Tanner walks up the road, unnoticed by Gerry and Wilkins.
She spots a man walking quickly across the top of the road in front of her, going away from the apartment block and heading to the outer road of the resort complex. 
He is carrying a sleeping girl in pink pajamas who is hanging limply in his arms. 
Her daughter is fine; Tanner returns to the table.

9.30pm: Kate gets up to make next check on her children but Matthew Oldfield and Russell O'Brien are checking, too. 
Oldfield offers to check the McCann's children.

In the McCanns' apartment, Oldfield notices the children's bedroom door is open again. 
He merely observes all is quiet and makes a cursory glance inside the room seeing the twins in their cot, but not directly seeing Madeleine's bed. Afterwards, he could not say for sure if she had been there or not. 
Nor could he say if the window and shutter had been open.

10.00pm: Kate checks on the children. 
She becomes alarmed when she reaches out to the children's bedroom door and it blows shut. Inside the room, the window is open and the shutter is up. The twins are sleeping but Madeleine's bed is empty.

Shortly after 10pm: Rachael Oldfield goes to Tanner's apartment to tell her Madeleine has been taken. 
Tanner says: "Oh my God. I saw a man carrying a girl."

10.15pm: Oldfield goes down to the 24-hour reception at the bottom of the hill to raise the alarm. 
Police are called.

10.30pm: Local police are first to arrive on the scene.

11.10pm: Detectives from the Policia Judiciaria (PJ) arrive having been contacted by police constables.

Around 4.00am: Physical search for Madeleine is called off, according to witnesses. 
Detectives from the PJ leave

Interesting....
There was never any evidence that Madeleine was abducted,  just the claim by her parents.

The crime scene was never secured.

Cadaver dogs found the scent of blood and a dead body in the McCann's apartment in the closet and behind the couch.
On some of Madeliene's clothes.

The parents washed Madeliene's stuffed animal she was sleeping with when she disappeared.
The cadaver dogs still found traces of a dead body on that as well.
Who washes their missing child's stuffed animal right away or at all?

Curious
Also the dogs found blood and dead body smell in the rented car. 
The only prints on the window was that of Kate.

It was impossible for the abductor to go through the window, without supporting themselves on the bed.

There was no trace dragging anything or body through the window.

Gerry admitted to using some kind of sleep aid for Madeliene in the past.

The Smith Family's statements that identified Gerry as the man they saw carrying a child fitting Madeleine's description towards the beach.

Kate didn't physically search for Madeleine, she sat in the bedroom deleting calls and text messages from her mobile phone.

Kate McCann refused to answer 48 questions in a police interview which could have helped find her missing daughter. 

The fund set up to find Madeliene was partially used to pay the McCann's Mortgage.

On May 1, 2 days before Madeleine was reported missing the McCann's upstairs neighbor Mrs Fenn had heard Madeleine crying hysterically for an hour and fifteen minutes.

May 4, 2007 when the police took pictures of the apartment there was Madeleine's pink blanket and Gerry's blue sports bag. Both had disappeared from the apartment.

A few days after Madeleine had disappeared Father Pacheco gave the McCann's keys to his church.

7 months later he told friends that he had been deceived, he claimed the McCann's had deceived him and had caused him numerous problems. 

He removed all traces of Madeleine from his church.

 Investigators were convinced Kate had confessed to him but he insisted he would stand by his priestly vow and take whatever she had said to his grave.

What i think happened.
I believe Madeliene heard the dad talking under the window to his friend. 
She was a little groggy, but she was awake and already out of bed.
She went over to the couch and climbed up on it.
She tried to peer out the window and hit her head.
Some one checking on the kids, possibly Gerry, went and discovered Madeliene after discovering she wasn't in her bed.
They possibly hid her in the closet, before getting assistance in hiding her body.
Or Gerry took her body down to the ocean.
That is why Jane said she saw someone carrying a girl, and the description she gave somewhat matched Gerry.
They were trying to cover their tracks.

I think if they searched Cape St. Vincent, they might find her.

What do you think happened?

i think they need to at least be charged for endangering all of their children.

Evidence that Madeleine died in the apartment.
Possible Madeleine sighting
I like how she did this video of this case.

The video the Mccann's apparently didn't want anyone to see.
