I'm not wearing any hat. You're the one that jumped to all sorts of prejudiced, judgemental and potentially libellous conclusions from your amateur detective work.
I didn't jump to any conclusions you fool. I saw an earlier post on here about the father living somewhere else in Scotland and asked the question.
I hardly think a murder case is going to be thrown out of court based on the posts on an obscure message board.
Add ALL the forums to ALL the tabloids to ALL the twitter feeds and facebook pages etc. that will be discussing this....and it's a very different picture.
It has happened before, that a judge has called a mistrial because an unbiased jury couldn't be selected after weeks and months of discussion and vilification in the press.
If this does turn out to be a murder case, I'm sure none of us want anyone walking on a technicality...
I sincerely hope I am mistaken in detecting a certain smugness or pleasure in your repeating that it is the mother who has been arrested. A child is dead. Disgusting and appalling if it is by the hand of the mother or the father.
Yea, sure. I'm smug as anything here.
Alternatively, I'm actually holding back tears because I have a young niece that I love to bits.
My post was out of anger at people automatically assuming that the father or other male relative must be to blame when a child is found dead.
It's unusual to publically name someone so quickly who has merely been detained, isn't it? No arrest or charge, but already named? Maybe they believe she has information to give them which she has been witholding, and this is to force her hand, not that she is necessarily guilty of anything herself.
The Mother has been detained in connection with his death.
I think one of the more significant things police revealed yesterday, was that he had not been at nursery since christmas. I wonder if something happened to him then.
Doesn't mean she actually commited the act but has been detained in connection.

I doubt she will see the news....naming her can't force her to do anything...a sky source will be a police/family leak.
As always BBC are way behind the game, talking about the flooding and then an elongated segment on Milliband's speech about banks.
Not even breaking news on the news bar...
Domestic news hands over to world news at 1AM which will have something to do with that.
I won't be surprised if the mother had something to do with it. After the store broke 2 days ago i always suspected she was involved with his disappearance and now death:(
The story just didn't add up.
This was always going 1 of 2 ways, father abducted him or mother killed him
3 year old kids dont leave their locked houses & walk 33 miles to another town/city without being stopped! If my 3 year old managed to get out of bed, get dressed, not make a noise, open the door, close it quietly behind them quietly...how many roads would they be able to cross before a vigilant member of the public came to their rescue...

It seems to be :SKY Sources are saying that it is the mother

Very plausible. Though I don't know how lawful that is?
I really hope that the person arrested didn't outright murder but maybe something accidentally tragic happened and she panicked and in sorrow had to dispose? Or is that just naivety.
Anyway I 'm not going to continue speculating.
Hopefully this was accidental death and not a murder, a tragic case for the whole family. Imagine for a second how his grandparents are feeling thousands of miles away.
On Sky they said that someone had been detained in connection with the death and that 'according to Sky sources' it was believed to be the mother. I don't think it has been officially confirmed yet.

RIP little boy
Whats wrong with that?

Really? You're surprised by that news? The "story" was full of holes.

Don't know if the father still lives here (Fife) but he was born in Glenrothes, Fife.

Sky News says the person has been arrested.
It'll be another case of child neglect.
Seems to be happening more and more lately.
She's just been named on Sky news.
