The Story / Timeline of Events

The McCanns left three-year-old Maddie and her two-year-old twin siblings, Sean and Amelie at the end of a week-long family holiday in Portugal. Children were unattended and rented in the apartment at the resort Praia da Luz in the Algarve region. And they were having dinner at a nearby tapas restaurant with friends on the night of May 3, 2007.

The McCann family was on holiday along with seven other friends (eight children in total) and began dining around 8:30 pm. They dined in the restaurant which was about 180 feet away from the apartment. They left their kids on unsecured place and was open to the public. Every parent on the holiday look rounds checking on their respective children during the night, and it was at around 10 pm that her mother Kate McCann discovered Madeleine was missing.

In the leading immediate weeks, the Portuguese officials considered the McCanns were responsible for the disappearance of their daughter, creating a theory that their daughter had unexpectedly died in the apartment and they had gotten relieved of her body. In September 2007, her parents have labeled arguidos (suspects), but a year later, the label was lifted due to a lack of evidence.

When the Portuguese chief inspector that directed the case to find her, Goncalo Amaral, abdicated in 2008. He quickly thereafter released a book, The Truth of the Lie, which became a best seller.
