Shannon Matthews found alive

[BoredBloke]

"Earlier this week, Ms Matthews, 32, a mother-of-seven from Dewsbury, West Yorks, said: "She got abducted. That's all I can say.""

This has been a dodgy story from day one. The mother knows far more than she has said or has been released.
Her body language and manner has suggested that she knows who has taken her daughter and why.
Whether the girl was ever in any danger is open to debate. I suspect it was possibly the girls father or an ex partner or similar who was punishing the mother. It may have been the local mafia/yardies who have taken her against an outstanding debt or pending court appearance where she is the witness in which case she may have been in danger.

My opinion. No factual basis or evidence.

could have been father/ex-partner. but no way was any sort of criminal with any brain kidnap a child. they would sooner kill the mother. far less chance of getting caught. and in prison those who commit crimes against childen/vulnerable/frail get a very very bad time.

No wait! Perhaps she was abducted by aliens who wanted to see what an earthling child looked like and then returned?

Well whatever the ins and outs it is a good result anyway.
