Answer 1

Having the twins tested is nothing to do with Madeleine anyway.....the twins may not have been sedated but Madeleine could have been?!

Answer 2

Because their system is clean now and the drug traces are gone.

Answer 3

I don't think that's true. It might have been rife on the internet, but I don't think it was an issue until they were made suspects.

Edit: I copied this quote from Anorac's question.


Rachel Woods, the general manager of TrichoTech, a private toxicology laboratory that carries out tests on behalf of the Home Office, said: “Anything that enters the blood-stream also enters the root of hairs and stays in the same position as the hair grows. If there was nothing found in the hair, that’s pretty clear-cut.” David Gerrie, an analyst at Guy’s Hospital Medical Toxicology Unit, said: “Traces will remain in the hair until it falls out or is cut. Hair grows at about 1cm per month so to test for five months ago you would need a 5cm-long hair.”

and......... * Madeleine grew to become right into a ward of court docket while the fund grew to become into being set up. Why? Kate McCann refused to respond to this maximum worry-loose question alongside with 40 seven others while she grew to become into pulled in by making use of the police purely before being given Arguida prestige. * Madeleine’s medical records have been withheld from the investigating police stress in Portugal. Why? What grew to become into there to conceal? * Gerry and Kate McCann destroyed mandatory cellular telephone info on a minimum of could 2nd and could third, 2007. they did no longer supply any rationalization why or who’s numbers they destroyed. * The McCanns stated they could return to Portugal in the event that they had to. The police wanted them to return to do a reconstruction of the evening of could 3, 2007. The McCanns refused to bypass. This grew to become into while they advised donors they could cooperate completely with the police. * 15 out of nineteen genetic markers of Madeleine McCann have been discovered interior the boot of the vehicle employed by making use of the McCanns. Cadaver and blood canine detected the fragrance of death interior the vehicle. The McCanns have no rational rationalization for this. * for the duration of the time the McCanns have been named as Arguidos, they hid at the back of that prestige as a trend to refuse to talk to the media. on the grounds that that prestige grew to become into bumped off, the McCanns have not come forward to respond to any damning questions with regard to the activities in April and could 2007 on the sea club hotel the place they stayed. Why? * After contacting the business enterprise - Madeleine’s Fund: Leaving No Stone Unturned constrained - quite a few cases interior the previous year, they have steadfastly fobbed us off and refused to offer the any solutions to questions with regard to the fund. What have they have been given to conceal? * After fleeing back to England from Portugal, the McCanns advised each and every person they could take a lie detector attempt. presently after this they recanted that supply and stated they'd not now take a lie detector attempt. * Captured on movie while they didn’t be attentive to the digital camera grew to become into nonetheless rolling, the McCanns have discovered this finished concern to be a huge snigger. Gerry McCann even sat sucking a lollipop and joked at the same time as the police have been waiting to pay attention from a available kidnapper early on interior the learn.

Answer 5

Both are Doctors they knew that any traces of sedatives would not show now.That is why they refused in Portugal.It stinks of Bull S***, everyday something else comes out about this case that simply just doesn't add up

Answer 6

Traces of certain drugs are out of your system in so many days/months. Weed is out of your blood stream in 72 hours. Cocaine is In the blood for 48 hours and up to 4 days in urine and 90 days in hair. Steroids stay in the blood stream for up to six months. Antihistamines can stay in the body for up to 3 months.

Name the drug that you are looking for and I will tell you

It's my job to know and believe me I know what stays in the body and what doesn't. I have worked in the same job for 15 years and I work with the after effect of drugs (and other causes) and I don't mean people in rehab. There is no rehab for the people that I work with.

Answer 7

Pure and simply because these type of tests are only considered valid up to a period of 90 days. Madeleine has been missing for over 170 days. The McCanns know this 'evidence' could never be used in a court of law, but thats not why they have paid from the fund for the tests. They are about their continued propoganda war with the Press and general public. Note as well that the gullible Pro McCanns on YA will also fall for this 'evidence' is in some way proof that the McCanns are innocent.

Answer 8

They had to wait for all traces of drugs to leave the childrens bodies. Being doctors they will know exactly how long that takes. I think the question should read " Why didn't Gerry allow the twins to be tested for drugs in Portugal" after all the PJ asked him if they could test the twins and he said NO. I wonder if the "private clinic" where he had the tests done is run by more "friends" of his.

Answer 9

I would say you are coming across as a mccan stalker, you are truely obsessed with them, dont you care that a child is missing,have you any friends, then go out to play.

Answer 10

Nail on the head, just me! good to be back, lightning blew my pc to bits! 200 euro's later all is well.....

edit; there still guilty as sin!

Answer 11

Well, They ARE doctors so they would know all about drugs and how long it stays in the body.
