Parents’ Worst Nightmare: The Story of Madeleine McCann

Sleeping Soundly

As the adults of the trip laughed and dined at the nearby restaurant, their children slept soundly in their apartments. The adults of the trip, including the McCanns, regularly left the restaurant continuously throughout the night in order to check on the kids. At around 9:05 PM, Gerry McCann checked on the kids and they were soundly asleep. He did however notice something strange, he remembered pulling the door almost all the way shut and now it was wide open. He must have thought his mind was playing tricks on him so he again pushed the door till it was almost shut leaving it only slightly ajar. Gerry then returned to the restaurant.
