Madeleine's parents have returned home to a storm of allegations, leaks and accusations. Cole Moreton and Ian Herbert in Praia da Luz sift the evidence
Kate and Gerry McCann returned to Britain six days ago with the tide of public opinion turning against them. The huge outpouring of sympathy and support that followed the disappearance of their three-year-old daughter Madeleine in Portugal on 3 May had given way to shock and confusion for many of their supporters when the couple were named as formal suspects by police.
They flew back to Rothley in Leicestershire with friends claiming they were being framed. But while many people could believe the McCanns were going through hell, others suddenly felt able to express rage.
A BBC Radio 5 Live phone-in on the McCanns on Monday was abandoned after a flood of critical calls. The Leicester Mercury had to withdraw a website opinion page "bombarded" with "nasty, spiteful and defamatory" comments. More than 17,000 people signed an online petition calling for Leicestershire social services to investigate the McCanns for leaving their children sleeping alone in Praia da Luz that night. Social workers did go to see them, but had been invited.
