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”

There are thousands of deaths every year in car accidents. There are a couple of plane crashes every year. So the children were at a higher risk during their journey to Portugal, than during the time their parents had their dinner in Portugal.
And of course, the travelling risk was easily avoidable. There is no need at all to travel to Portugal for leisure purposes. But nobody would ever say that parents who travel with their children endanger them in an unacceptable manner. How comes?

Absolute nonsense! Travelling by public transport is a common, normal, and everyday occurrence. This is what I meant by “normal” and using public transport is about as normal as you can get. This is a good example of how not to do an analogy.

Stevo, about 30 kms from the Italian border, on the coast and not that far from an airport. Let me know next time you come. As we shall still be posting by September, according to the latest news, you have time ahead. (I have made up my mind I’ll post on Anorak every day when I can, until the case is solved and we know the truth).
About pools, we either must fence them with a fence at least I60 cm high, or have them fixed with an alarm that will set out in case a child falls into the pool. It is not even because of the insurance, it is compulsory by law.
Every year in June I go to California fetch my 2 grand-children, and with the jetlag, the 3 of us have very disturbed nights here for a while (while my husband sleeps soundly, sees nothing, hears nothing). You can’t imagine my fright in case I am asleep at night and the children wake up. They are attracted by the pool like moths by the light, especially the little one who can’t swim yet. Therefore the doors are locked, the french windows secured, the shutters closed, the keys hidden. The little one, aged 4 is able to open the most difficult, heavy doors (unless locked).
It was almost the first thing I thought about when I saw the layout of the MW resort, with all the swimming-pools. I find it hard to believe that the MC, being doctors and well aware of the dangers, could have left the door of their apartment unlocked. In California, my children have a device such as when a door to the inside or outside garden is opened, a pleasant bell sound goes in every room of the house, then a voice says : “front door open”, or “garage door open”.
In the United States, you often see children with their parents in restaurants at any time. They eat with their fingers and make a real mess with their food, but the managers don’t seem upset!

776 yes i believe when kate ran shouting they have taken her.she did mean it at the time but i believe she was refering to husband and dr p.i believe it was then the body was moved
———–
catkidd,
i know my holier than though username might cause some painful wincing - even i do sometimes - but i’m not a devout nothing. next time, my post number and ‘pray for rain’ or something to that effect will do.
i’ve wondered what she really meant by that statement too, and if there was a possibility she was not informed of plans to remove the body from the apartment and so being in a state of utter bewilderment at finding her gone(… IF this is the scenario that obtained on the night, btw!)

If living abroad we still need our home fix. That could be sausages, bacon, fish & chips ,or tv etc. That is because we are homesick until we go home & wonder what the hell we were homesick about!! Abroad you will always see the foreigners around the newstand reading the front pages just to see what’s happening back home.

“Chenier, I like your definition of risk, it says it all.”
It’s not Chernier’s definition. But anyway, it’s not about risks, but about the perception of risks.
There are thousands of deaths every year in car accidents. There are a couple of plane crashes every year. So the children were at a higher risk during their journey to Portugal, than during the time their parents had their dinner in Portugal.
And of course, the travelling risk was easily avoidable. There is no need at all to travel to Portugal for leisure purposes. But nobody would ever say that parents who travel with their children endanger them in an unacceptable manner. How comes?

Another pointless analogy. What the McCann’s allegedly did in terms of their evening childcare arrangements is completely unacceptable.
Except of course it is quite probable that events were not as the McCann’s have described them on the evening of May 3rd, what they have described is what they would like us to believe, in my opinion.

******************
Still catching up posts…[and skipping a lot]
Wasn’it funny to see how people misunderstood what was the issue?
It wasn’t printed in many papers [nor was it often repeated] who was the person that went to the reception to let them call the police. Sledgie knew though. Although s/he didn’t provide the right link to the article that contains the info. That’s it, quite simple.
Now Matt. time to confess???
January 18th, 2008 at 9:32 pm
Wow Mrs T - how did you get him to agree to that?
Actually Mr Noseycow irons - he has to as he insists on a clean shirt for work each day - so I provided him with an extra tall ironing board (he’s 6′3″) and a clean shirt every day

7 kids were left in McCann flat
Wednesday, October 10, 2007
SIX other kids were with Maddie on the night she disappeared, police in Portugal claim
More…
**********************
Any one remember that one…? no one woke up!
++++++++++++++
Old rumour, never confirmed….
What I found interesting about the rumour at the time was that seven children and not the eight that ought to have been in the overall group was mentioned. Where was the missing one?
As I say though, this rumour has never been confirmed.
******************
8th child was probably the 7 month old baby of the Paynes - they had the baby monitor with them and may be left their baby in their own room.

And others might ask why you are so certain that checks did take place?

Good Evening to all,

that would just be stalling for time: the Eurojust machinery would just spit another right out. more effective would be a cabinet reshuffle - everyone understands when government is in a state of flux. (careful now - i’m not dropping hints here about anything!)

Do you like reiki? I have never been very convinced. But then, I suppose different ones use differing techniques.
