In part I of our season 2 finale, we discuss the high profile Madeleine McCann case- a case which is still highly debated and unsolved to this day.

The McCann family was vacationing in Praia Da Luz, Portugal in May 2007 when their three-year-old daughter Madeleine was abducted from her bed while her parents were at a restaurant with friends only feet away from Apartment 5A. Shortly after her abduction, the Portugal police begin an investigation into the missing toddler only to quickly zero on three major suspects: An interpreter named Robert Murat ( a British man who injects himself into the investigation in an attempt to help locate Madeleine) and the girl's own parents Kate and Gerry McCann.

In part one of our discussion, we talk about the circumstances and timeline surrounding her disappearance and the events directly following the abduction. Also, we take a look at these three major suspects who were given official "arguido" status in the early stages of the investigation and how the police's tunnel vision on these two possible scenarios may have distracted them from other leads that could have been much more promising.

Our discussion and dissection of one of the world's most high-profile missing person's case is one you don't want to miss!
