Madeleine McCann: Kate McCann’s Message And McCann Posters For Mari Cortes Luz
MADDYWATCH - Anorak’s at-a-glance guide to press coverage of Madeleine McCann
DAILY EXPRESS: “I feel your pain – Kate’s note to kidnap parents”
Kate McCann has delivered a “heartfelt message of support” to the parents of missing girl Mari Luz Cortes
Writes Kate, a “GP”: “I feel your pain, as parents we know what you’re going through…I am praying that Mari Luz is found quickly, safe and well”
Not that it’s all about the McCanns, a Maddy 2. Although: Says Juan Jose Cortes, Mari’s father: “Only now I understand what Madeleine McCann’s parents are suffering”
Neither Mr Cortes nor his wife are named suspects in their child’s disappearance
The McCanns have offered to equip posters of Madeleine with a shot of Mari – 12,000 of them are to be put up in Spain, the Balearic and Canary Islands
Mr Cortes says thank you but “We don’t feels strong enough to make a decision”
Says Clarence Mitchell, the McCanns’ spokesman: “The posters could lead to vital clues in both cases. Mari Luz’s face would sit along Madeleine’s… We just want to help”
Help who?
DAILY STAR: “’I KNOW THE PAIN YOU ARE FEELING’”
“Madeleine McCann’s mum has told the parents of a child feared snatched by the same abductor: ‘I feel your pain.’ GP Kate, 39, sent her words of comfort to the parents of five-year-old Mari Luz Cortes when the McCanns’ private detectives met them to investigate links between the two cases”
How did the papers come to know of this message, and how can knowing help either child?
“POLICE reject claims of link” – Portuguese police do not “believe” there is a link between Mari and Madeleine
Kate McCann is a “GP”
DAILY MAIL: “McCanns comfort lost girl’s parents”
Kate McCann has sent an “emotional message” to the parents of Mari Luz Cortes
THE McCanns will have to wait until September this year to discover why they were made suspects
THE MIRROR: “KATE’S PRAYER OF HOPE”
“I FEEL YOUR PAIN – Kate’s message to parents of missing Spanish girl Mari”
Reports are that police are seeking a “local sex pest” in Huelva
“70,000..the number of kids under 16 that go missing in the UK every year. Only 10 per cent vanish for more than five days”
Any more room on those posters? How are they remembered?
DAILY TELEGRAPH: “McCanns tell lost girl’s parents: We feel for you”
Says a friend of Mari’s parents, Irene a
nd Juan Jose Cortes: “They have been touched by the fact someone who is going through her own turmoil can find the strength to think of their moment of need”

If the UK have a representative on EuroJust….then the UK must be a fully
signed up party re EuroJust. The fact that their first rep eventually became
EuroJust’s President is icing on the cake.

They also became prime suspects and had extensions put on
those questions are just a formality IMO
hopefully for the pj and us to take the piss out of really

Hello Stevo,
Nice to hear you!
Yes, they are sickening! I just hope they will be charged. Bearing in mind all the protection they had, if they could be let off the hook, it would have happened by now. I hope Kate goes crazy, if she is at all normal at least a little bit. Only a total remourseless monster can stay sane in such cituation.

Michael Kennedy, was the UK’s representative for some years, eventually
becoming EuroJust’s President, a position he held until last November.
He is Scottish I think.
UK fully signed up am sure.

Great re Daily Mirror,
but they got away with just an apology, that’s nothing to them. The newspapers will only stop publishing such c..p if the could be punished financially. The PCC is a shield for them, in fact, where people go to instead of going to court, and let off steam, and then do not sue.
It is a clever way to make us believe that “something is being done”. But Tony Parsons does not know what remourse is, and he can give an apology to anyone if needed without giving a toss about it. Suing is the only thing that will teach him.

307 Peter O Says:
“My point was that if/when these letters are sent, if they are ever sent, then it would end the rumour mill if they announced that they had done so in a manner that is not open to interpretation .”
But you also said:
“Then those of us in the UK with an interest in this case could ask pertinent questions of MP’s etc. It would also make it pretty damn difficult for the UK media to ignore that particular piece of news.”
I agree with your analysis, but what effect would that have, if any, in your opinion? And why should that effect be desirable for the portugese autorities?
+++++++++++++
Please go back to the beginning of thread(s)….
People complaining/commenting that UK is holding it up. However, there is no verifiable evidence that letters have, or are about to be, sent. I’m just making the point that until there is clear evidence that letters have been sent and not responded to in a timely fashion there is little point in anyone complaining to the UK authorities. Though I have asked for a comment from MP on yesterday rumour in the Daily Mail.
I don’t what impact if any this may have on the Portuguese authorities. For all I/we know they may be quite happy for speculation to continue for a good while longer just yet.

The thing is, we don’t know that they are coming here to charge then. From what I have read they are only coming here to ask further questions of all the T9, via English Police.
Please prove me wrong.

I missed all the kerfuffle (thanks PH) about the ‘reasons why they lied’ list cross-posted by Tony B from the Mirror forum. Does anyone have that address or has the posting dissappeared from the Mirror also?
Sorry M & A - does asking for the URL put you at risk?

The PJ gave them opportunity to answer all the questions when in Portugal.
They declined.
The PJ, thank heavens, don’t dance to CM’s tune.
Which is only PR after all.
