Doomed from Day 1?
In the complex they were staying in, the couples and their families occupied 3 apartments, and the McCann’s remained on the ground floor in a two-bedroom space. The three kids slept in one room, which was closer to the apartment’s front door. It had one window measuring about waist high that had a walkway right outside of it. Just for safety, Gerry and Kate made sure to check the windows and doors at all times, assured that they were securely sealed to keep their children safe inside. They were able to lock the window completely, keeping it closed from the outside world. But the front door to the apartment could only be locked from the inside, causing them to leave it closed, but not locked as they headed out for dinner.
