Madeleine McCann: The Tapas 7 Speak, Blonde Children In Morocco And Hashish
MADDY WATCH - Anorak’s at-a-glance guide to press coverage of Madeleine McCann
THE SUN front page: “McCANN FRIENDS HIT BACK – FURY OF TAPAS 7. Pals: there is NO pact”
Say the McCanns dining party: “The police told us not to discuss our statement. We’ve always tried to honour this. We wish to state there is categorically no so-called pact of silence – or indeed anything secretive between us. Just the desire to assist the search. It is frustrating that the facts we have done as we were asked is till being looked upon as suspicious”
“COPS IN WINDOW PROBE” – Paolo Rebelo is looking at the window of the McCanns’ holiday apartment. “is this how evil Maddie snatcher struck?”
Four pictures:
1. “Rebelo pushes window
2. Net curtains rustle in breeze as the window swings open
3. Detective leans in
4. Team confer about possible escape route”
“Fund paid mortgage” – Some of the £1million Madeleine McCann “fighting fun”
DAILY MIRROR front page: “NOW THEY BELIVE US – Police finally accept Madeleine was snatched”
Portuguese police are looking at possibilities
Says a friend of the McCanns: “At last, after all these months, Kate and Gerry’s story is being believed. They are very encouraged by the re-enactment of Madeleine’s abduction and the police now accept their version of events”
A policeman climbs through a window. He passes out a “large bundle”
“MADDY ‘SPOTTED 10 TIMES IN MOROCCO’” – Says private detective Francisco Marco: “Several unconnected people have told us of the same girl with the same woman. She has shorter hair than Madeleine. But everything else matches”. Like her name?
“MORTGAGE FUND FURY” – Says Clarence Mitchell: “The fund exists to help them when living costs became difficult”
DAILY EXPRESS front page: “MADELEINE – McCANNS USE FUNDS TO PAY MORTGAGE” – Two mortgage payments on their “£600,000” home
The Express leads with picture of Gerry McCann playing golf. Inset is a picture of Gerry McCann on a bicycle
“We’ve found a kidnapped blonde girl, but it’s not her” – A blonde girl in Morocco. She can speak English. She must have been kidnapped. Right?
Says Francisco Marco: “Blonde children are a valuable commodity in North Africa. They can be sold for huge sums and give prestige to families who buy them”
DAILY MAIL front page: “MADDIE FUND PAYS McCANNS’ MORTGAGE” – Mortgage repayments on their “£500,000” home. (How long before the Express and Mail start a heated debate on the value of the McCanns home and how that value has been affected by the story?)
Page 4: “Is she in the mountains? Investigators scour Morocco in the search for Madeleine”
Says the Mail: “In an extraordinary coincidence the detectives are reported to have already found an English-speaking blonde girl of about Madeleine’s age living with a local family”
How many more blonde children are in Morocco? And can we find them all?
DAILY STAR front page: “Maddie ‘alive in drug den’”
Page 7: “MADDIE’S IN MOROCCAN MOUNTAINS – Ten sightings with rich Arab”
Says Francisco Marco PI of the woman with the blonde child found in the Rif mountains: “My feeling is this woman is some sort of carer who is working on behalf of other people”
Says an “insider”: “It’s a very secretive country and the Rif mountains enjoy official protection because of the importance of the hashish production”
“McCanns in the clear – Portuguese police now believe Madeline was kidnapped”
THE TIMES page 13: “Police return to holiday apartment in attempt to solve Madeleine mystery”
Paulo Rebelo is inside the apartment. He walks to the beach. He passes Sergey Malinka’s home. He is on a road leading to the N125 main road

THE TELEGRAPH front page: “Police re-enact Madeleine night”
Page 17: Paulo Rebelo is at the Ocean Club. Says a source “close to the couple”: “Blonde children are a very valuable commodity in places like north Africa”

are you for real? perfectly reasonable post imo.

746 Blind faith and found faith…
Interesting.
I have blind faith too, that those who have committed an offence usually get their just deserts, though it isnt always easy to see them apparently getting away with something.
It may be that we have all misjudged the Mccanns….
It may also be there is a god….but I suspect not.

The nanny was not sent packing! All the brit staff who worked with madeleine were transferred to other resorts avoid them being chased by the press which would have interfered with the creche. You can find that info easily if you look but maybe its not sensationalist enough for you??
Ian. Sorry. I promise not to encourage Stevo in his crap behaviour ever again!

704 Peter - you dont have to be charged to be guilty of an offence.
If your child is abducted from an unlocked apartment where you left them all alone, it might be said that you were failing in your duty as a parent…guilty of it in fact.
++++++++++++++++++++++++
I disagree with you.. You might be guilty, it’s just not proven, yet.
Failing in your duty as a parent is not, so far as I know, a criminal offence. i.e. Not something you can be directly charged and found guilty of? Happy to be corrected. And no, I’m not defending their baby sitting arrangements, I think they are barking to think it acceptable to leave three children under 4 years of age alone. Sadly, it appears not be a cast iron case that this qualifies as child neglect, in the criminal sense. Crap parenting, but not criminal, allegedly.
Dr Watson is alleging that the Fund is fraud on the basis that there is as yet no evidence that Madeleine has been abducted. I disagree with him.

Stevo 703 - you asked why Murat used his Norfolk address. In all likelihood, this is because his residence papers or identity card has this address. Although he has dual nationality he may be residing in Portugal under his British passport which might be beneficial for tax (I’ve done something similar elsewhere in Europe for similar reasons).

Teddy Boy’s language is inappropriate but his point was well made I thought. Apart from the obvious offensive language, what part of his points didn’t you like?

They do get me down. They are worse than the paedophile who took her> It’s like a sick cult in here. A real sink of iniquity.
None of them care about Madeleine.

The claim that Calopol Night was not available in the UK prior to May 3rd was originally made by Cool and Calm, not me.
October 30th, 2007 at 6:28 pm
740 Really? Interesting.
It does seem as if there has been an attempt to hide some ‘big secret’ doesnt there.
I wonder what is at the heart of the Mccanns confidence that they cannot be found guilty of anything…but then I suppose they were 100% confident that the police wouldnt make them ’suspects’ - is this narcissism..and did I spell that right!

It’s just the thing that keeps coming back into my head. Wish it wouldn’t, to be honest.

I’m afraid I agree with Teddy Boy. The McCanns warrant absolutely no empathy or understanding. None whatsoever. I reserve my understanding for Madeleine. I think you’re the idiot. Blind faith.
October 30th, 2007 at 6:27 pm
What’s a little fraud when you have committed every other sin in the book? Taking the public for a ride is a far less offense than child neglect and child endangerment.

You can put your money on it, that ‘vile’ post will stay. Remember that what goes around comes around. Teddy boy will ‘get his’ eventually. In spades.
Unfortunately we will never get to hear about it.

738 - The McCanns aren’t looking after them are they?

Don’t let them get you down Louise

719. Stevo.
One of the nannies was a British girl, hired by MW for the summer. She was the nanny who reported that she had become very close to Maddie. She was sent packing the day after Maddie was reported missing. I think she knows something that is “not helpful” for the McCann’s. Possibly saw signs of physical abuse, my theory.
October 30th, 2007 at 6:24 pm
725 coolandcalm…I really dont think that would be appropriate.
Although the Mccanns may be guilty of child neglect and misuse of funds donated, as well as trying to pervert the course of justice, you shouldnt be encouraging this behaviour.

Interesting. I keep returning to the idea that they didn’t want Madeleine for some reason. She was perfect enough? We know she cried 18 hours a day as a baby. Did Kate reject her? Did she have problems? Perhaps the twins were better value for money. I get seriously depressed at the thought of the McCanns living the high life and getting away with neglect, accidental death or even murder. Gerry really seems to be getting off on it.

I am thinking that way too
I know some people will say its not nice to suggest it
but incest/paedop involving the group is also
mercy killing

So they take some money for their mortgage - why is anybody surprised any more by the actions of this odious couple? They have obviously decided that they are perfectly entitled to do as they please because they are “grief stricken”, and no decent person could possibly criticise them at a time like this.
Wrong!!!!!!
To my untrained eye these two are just con artists who have spotted the main chance and are grabbing it with both hands. Whether the child was abducted, ran away, was eaten by dingos, sold into prostitution, murdered or whatever, these shits have milked it mercilessly.
I call upon everybody who donated to the “Keep these cunts in luxury” fund to demand their money back.
————————————————————————————————————————————–
I really do think enough is enough, and this ’sick person’ should be stopped from posting these vile messages. You really are absolutely dispicable, I do hope nothing happens to you in your life time to warrant empathy and understanding. What an idiot you are!!!
