Madeleine McCann: Kate McCann Sobs, Gerry McCann Points And 14 Questions
MADDY WATCH - Anorak’s at-a-glance guide to press coverage of Madeleine McCann
DAILY MIRROR front page: “KATE’S TORMENT – ‘I think she is being held by someone in their house..as Madeleine’s mummy I feel in my heart she’s out there’”
“Distraught” Kate McCann is on Spanish TV. She is being interviewed. Says she: “I don’t know how anyone could harm anyone as beautiful as Madeleine”
Pages 4 and 5: “TEARS OF KATE – After six months of holding her heartbreak in check..Madeleine’s mum breaks down on TV”
Three pictures of Kate McCann:
“SO EMPTY: Kate tries to explain her loss on TV”
“TOO MUCH: She can’t hold back the tears”
“SOBBING: Kate and Gerry on TV”
“14 questions Portuguese police are flying to Britain to out to the McCanns and friends” – So reports Portuguese newspaper 24 Horas. Why would the police publish the questions and allow the McCanns and their friends to prepare answers? Why only – or as many as - 14 questions? Unless these are questions made up by the media, questions the police are “expected” to ask…
DAILY EXPRESS front page: “MADELEINE – POLICE WANT ANSWERS TO 14 QUESTIONS. What detectives demand to know”
Pages 4 and 5: “Kate breaks down during TV grilling.” Kate and Gerry McCann are on the telly. Says Kate: “I feel sad and I feel lonely and our life is not as happy without Madeleine…we want people to try to reunite us with your beautiful girl”
And: “We know the truth. We know we are totally innocent. That is why we are calm. We know each other”
Says a “British detective”: “The detectives could be giving the suspects enough rope to hang themselves. It is a common tactic in police investigations to let those under suspicion speak on television in case they trip themselves up”
THE SUN front page: “KATE WEEPS FOR MADDIE – I feel in my heart she is out there”
“Distraught” Kate on the telly. Kate and Gerry are publicising a telephone hotline. No, not 999, their own number
Pages 4 and 5: “MADDIE NEEDS US – So lonely without our lovely girl, sobs Kate”
Three pictures of “Precious..the happy Maddie her mum longs to see”
Three pictures of the McCanns:
“Anguish…Gerry faces TV quiz”
“Ordeal…Kate fights back tears”
“Brave…but the McCanns struggle with their emotions as they relive the night Maddie vanished”
The hotline. Says Kate McCann: “We want to appeal to the people of Spain, Portugal and North Africa to help us and to tell them we have a new central phone number for them to call”
DAILY STAR front page: “MADDIE MUM FINALLY CRACKS – Suspect Kate sobs on TV as she is quizzed”
Pages 8 and 9: “MADDIE’S MUM TV BREAKDOWN – Torment as Kate’s sobs halt interview four times”. Spanish TV journalist Roberto Arce sees Kate “prostrate with pain”
The McCanns hotline number is 00 34 902 300 213
DAILY MAIL pages 8 and 9: “I’M SAD AND LONELY…LIFE IS NOT HAPPY”
Says Mrs McCann: “Somebody knows something. It is not about us. It is about Madeleine.” Is it? We are watching the parents
Gerry McCanns is a “consultant cardiologist”. He says: “We have not been charged with anything”
“Will they find her in Spain?” – Gerry McCann tells El Mundo newspaper (Spain): “The possibility that Madeleine is alive and in Spain is real…If someone had a car, it is clear they could cross into Spain. There is no border guard and no one closed the border the night Madeleine disappeared.” And we look again at the police
THE TIMES page 3: “Sobbing Kate McCann insists that Madeleine is alive and being held”
“Days of hope and despair” – The Times looks at some key dates: June 21 (Madeleine in Malta); August 3 (Madeleine in Belgium); August 23 (Madeleine in Morocco)
DAILY TELEGRAPH front page: “’I’M SO SAD AND LONELY’ – KATE McCANN WEEPS FOR MADELEINE ON SPANISH TV”
Page 5: “’Sad, lonely’ Kate weeps for Madeleine in TV interview” – Kate McCann wept “uncontrollably”. Says he:” I feel anxious she is not with us”
THE GUARDIAN page 12: “McCanns set up phone line to seek Madeleine”
THE INDEPENDENT: No Madeleine news today

They will not get away with this, too many people angry.

1219 The Real Stig
I suspect that Sara Cooper witnessed her child fall and in the grief and shock, ran away and took her own life. I can imagine the horror of witnessing an event like that and not expecting the child to survive. Or the husband could have pushed the girl and the wife ran away…
Oops, look what you’ve done. I’m not going to get started on another case. This case (the Madeleine McCann disappearance) is my first and last crime case obsession. Once is enough!

Real Stig - that’s terribly convenient, isn’t it? To only agree with the reports that support your suppositions…….
………………………………………………
So what exactly is it that the anti-McCanns do apart from trash any report that doesn’t support their suppositions??
A tad hypocritical I’d have thought as the nannies have both been dismissed as liars and the waiter’s words accepted without query?
Stig… little do they know. He he.

Greetings from the Place of the Emperor of Lancashire.
Might as well tell you Mike Hondemburst is right. The shifting sands have settled down to this:
A MYSTERY CALL WILL BE MADE TO THE NEW SPANISH HOTLINE, GIVING THE LOCATION OF THE BODY. THOSE CONTROLLING THE HOTLINE WILL MAKE SURE THIS INFO IS ACTED ON. THE BODY WILL BE FOUND BURIED IN HOLY GROUND IN SPAIN. A MYSTERY ABDUCTOR WILL GET THE BLAME AT FIRST, THEN STRINGS WILL BE PULLED, DEALS WILL BE STRUCK, THE REAL GUILTY PARTIES WILL GET AWAY WITH IT BAR ONE - WHO WILL BE TREATED LENIENTLY DUE TO AN “INSANE INTERLUDE” THEN “DENIAL.” ” THE DNA (DAMNING THOUGH IT IS) AND THE OTHER EVIDENCE WILL BE SWEPT UNDER THE CARPET.
You can call me a nutter and swear at me but I don’t care - one by one these things will come to pass, 100%

The more I read, the more I think the Mc’s are evil in their self-centeredness (is that a word?)
I think Kate has made a complete psychotic break with reality. Gerry is iron-man. Both live in a fake world of I can do no wrong.
This doesn’t look good for them at all. I still don’t know how a mother could eat and drink knowing her daughter’s body was being taken away by Dad and his buddies. And then to have it burned in a drum or dumped in the sewer or whatever, beyond belief. I suppose that’s why I have a difficult time believing it.
I’d be a wreck and crying and thinking I deserved to sit in a dungeon for the rest of my years.
But I suppose that’s why I’m different than Kate and Gerry and maybe why I don’t understand this entire nasty affair.
I just read the earlier posts about the Ramseys by Pat Brown. Oh, poor Jon Benet - What a shame. I never believed her parents in any of it. Maybe self-centered people are just too self absorbed to care about what happens to even their own children.

Stevo?
How do I pass you a pic?
October 25th, 2007 at 9:47 pm
1239 Pat -Thank you - its the sex drugs and rock & roll. Oh no, trying not to think of the McCanns!

“IT was a caring gesture aimed at comforting Kate McCann - but a little Portuguese girl’s kiss in church yesterday left the mum of missing Madeleine sobbing uncontrollably.
After 31 days of torment following her four-year-old’s disappearance, Kate broke down during Mass and desperately clutched husband Gerry.
Then she held Madeleine’s Cuddle Cat to her face and wept openly in a rare display of public emotion.
Her distress was so visible that other Catholic churchgoers - who had left messages and photos pinned to the doors - also broke down.”
October 25th, 2007 at 9:45 pm
Real Stig - that’s terribly convenient, isn’t it? To only agree with the reports that support your suppositions? My question would be why would the McCanns now be issuing this photofit and the timing of 9.15 when the vigil’s lead prayers will not take place until 15 minutes later? Why are they incapable of getting their stories straight? If, as some seem to think, you are a McCann or one of their army of ’spokespeople’ perhaps you could set us all straight, from the horses mouth - otherwise it may be wiser to accept that most people won’t be digging around for the early reports that you prefer to believe but will simply be thinking ‘why is there a 15 minute disparity here’?
As for the abductor ‘photofit’ - joke upon joke, if only any of these PR manoeuvres were either effective or clever.

Like eskimos have all those words to describe snow, the media now have different words to define “sobbing”. If you or I were sobbing it would probably mean crying uncontrollably with real tears. Kate McCann sobbing means no tears and a smack arse face.

We need an artists impression of Kate ‘tucking in’ or Gerry ‘not sedating’
October 25th, 2007 at 9:41 pm
If Maddie was as small as is stated, maybe Kate carried her around in that green backpack she had, she did put it in the boot whenever they went in the car, could explain how the DNA got in there
October 25th, 2007 at 9:41 pm
1230 lol! Holy eclipses! Love it!
I presume Philmabucket realise dher reletaves were a little more involved than she thought, so she shut her gob.

We also need an artists impression of Kate crying so we know what it looks like.

1224 Muddy, Mccanns paid someone to get rid of the body, so this also fits.
October 25th, 2007 at 9:37 pm
1219 though I do not respond to your posts now, you must not try to divert attention from the Mcconns - its now getting really fun, they are rolling out the rope and hanging themselves big time whilst the pj sit back and smile!
I understand that an artists impression of Maddie being sedated is being constructed (to prove she was sedated, you see) so we really dont need you trying to divert attention!

Uta I agree with you. Clarence is made to look like an idiot my the McCanns. I can not believe they are following all of his instructions. As previously discussed by many people, he is there to protect someone else.
Clarence was interviewed on the James Whale show on Talksport the other night, and if you had not been party to sites like anorak, thrashing out details of known facts and possible theories, you would have believed that the McCanns were completely innocent of even neglect and were being being victamised.

Ade - an alternative 12-step programme.
Must go and find the (a) telly and (b) my specs so I can watch Auntie Phil in all her glory. Knew that new wide-angle feature on my telly would come in handy someday.

I still believe that Madeleine was abducted by a stranger and taken to a boat and then killed. Don’t ask me for evidence, I have none. It’s a hunch!
October 25th, 2007 at 9:33 pm
RTE 1 - Irish TV station is doing a 45 minute special about what really happened to Madeleine McCann at 9.45 pm this evening.
Not sure if you can get this on satellite.
Hope Auntie Phil makes an appearance.
Am able to watch - so will let you know later if there are any more ‘revelations’ by our Comical plonker.

Julie the first, that is the video of her “sobbing”. It wasn’t the McCanns that gave the video/interview that headline, so I can’t blame them for that; but, yes, that is the video.

Ok it’s now 12
Updated list of McConnSpin Tactics Codes:
MT1: Accuse anti-McConn poster of being a sponger, out of work
MT2: Be abusive to individuals (e.g call them a tosser)
MT3: Remember it’s about a missing child…
MT4: Raise the neglect debate YET AGAIN
MT5: Ask for links to points and then claim stuff in the paper is not reliable.
MT6: Forensic evidence is completely unreliable.
MT7: PJ are incompetent and lazy (trying to frame them), therefore not reliable.
MT8: We’re not going to comment on that/We can’t comment on that right now
MT9:Ludicrous for you to suggest it happened like that you havent seen the evidence
MT10: We’re co-operating fully and will do anything to help find Madeleine
MT11: That comment/question is hurtful and unhelpful
MT12: Threaten legal action/law suit
User Guide: Simply type MT3 or appropriate MT code as a response to a McArse, thus saving valuable time and bandwidth. Multiple codes are acceptable if separated by forward slash (/).
