Madeleine McCann: Gail Cooper Says And Amy Fitzpatrick
MADDYWATCH - Anorak’s at-a-glance guide to press coverage of Madeleine McCann
THE SUN: “Potential Maddie witness snub”
“The British woman who may have seen Maddie McCann’s kidnapper has NOT been quizzed by Portuguese cops”
Gail Cooper says she saw a man. An artist’s impression of the man has been released
Gail, of Newark, Notts, says: “They never contacted me. He must be found, even if it is to rule him out”
IRISH INDEPENDENT: “Mum vows to continue search for missing teen Amy”
“Mari Luz Cortes vanished on January 13, as she went to buy sweets from a local kiosk in the Spanish town of Huelva, near the border with Portugal. A massive search for the five-year-old is ongoing.
“The disappearance has been linked to that of Madeleine McCann from the Algarve resort of Praia da Luz, although police said they did not think the two cases were connected.
Ms Fitzpatrick yesterday said that her only daughter is “still just a kid”.
“She is only 15 and she has disappeared without trace.”
Amy Fitpatrick was 15 when she vanished after leaving her friend’s house near Feungirola, in Spain, at 10pm on New Year’s Day. She set out on the 20-minute walk to her own house, but has not been seen since.

Brandon Flours,
I have 3 bunnies, I could let you have one.
Do you fancy black, white or grey. Very cute, hand reared, tame, house trained.
Only thing is we are going to have teleport them there. I will get onto it straight away. Just let me know your preference for colour. P.S. They are all female.

http://forums.mirror.co.uk/viewtopic.php?t=37418&start=0&postdays=0&postorder=asc&highlight= This statement deserves a thread of its own - the statement came through this afternoon on the ‘Sign Petition to Jacqui Smith’ thread - many of us emailed her and the Home Office, demanding clarification of reports in Correio di Mahna and on Paolo Reis’s thread that the Home Secretary is delaying interviewing of the Tapas 7:
[quote=”MirrorIain”]Please be advised, we have been asked by the Home Office to give their response to this thread, which follows:
“It is not our usual policy to comment on individual cases, however the Home Office has not received a formal request for Mutual Legal Assistance concerning the McCann investigation. It is not appropriate to comment further.”[/quote]
I have emailed this to Correio di Mahna (I think!! via their website), but calling all Portuguese posters - Please, please publicise this response from the Home Office to the Mirror Forum to your national press!! We cannot allow the British government to try and hide any stalling on the McCann case by using the excuse of Portuguese bureaucracy!!

RedRooster,
Sledge will waste your time spouting inane nonsense. He will not back anything up. He will make statements as if they are facts but will give no sources. He may allude to something long since discussed and rejected (by ourselves and the authorities) as if it is new, then refuse to acknowledge being debunked. He will never admit to being wrong and will not give anyone else the courtesy of considering their views.
He knows all this.
He will rot your brain!!
He likes to imply that he is part of team McCann and privy to their information and sources, but, even if there is a grain of truth in that, he is nothing more than a tiny cog in a huge machine. K&G don’t give a flying toss about him, so why should we?.
He is a rather sad individual, not deserving of our consideration (despite what I am writing here)
At one point Karen thought he was from Glasgow - I don’t know if that was true, but I sincerely hope not.

Coolandcalm’s claim that we have been ignoring Amy Fitpatrick on this blog is untrue.
I quoted and subsequently discussed Anna Pukas article in the Express on January 12th.
‘Since Amy vanished, her distraught mother and stepfather have made only one public appearance.
At a brief press conference five days later, they appealed for her safe return and for any information that could help bring that about. Since then they have been resolute in their refusal to say anything more and have turned the media away, saying: “Don’t make this another Maddy.”
It is a most revealing – and in some ways chilling – comment on the Madeleine McCann case from people who are better placed than anyone to form a view.
Like Madeleine McCann, Dublin-born Amy Fitzpatrick disappeared while in a foreign country. Like Kate and Gerry McCann, Amy’s mother Audrey (she is also the same age as them, 39) has had to place her trust in a foreign police force and foreign laws operating in a foreign language.
Unlike the McCanns, however, she has not mounted an extensive publicity campaign to find her daughter. She has not placed posters bearing Amy’s picture in shops or stuck them on the walls of the gated housing complex near Fuengirola where the family lives. She has not, and will not, give interviews about Amy to television or to glossy magazines.
The reason she has not done any of those things is because, in her own words, she does not want the investigation into Amy’s disappearance to “turn into a circus”.
In all probability, Audrey Fitzpatrick intended no slight to the McCanns but given her situation and its similarity to that of the McCanns, could there be a more damning indictment of the McCanns’ conduct over their daughter’s disappearance?’
I do appreciate that coolandcalm wouldn’t touch a damning indictment of the McCann circus with a bargepole, but pretending now to care about Amy Fitpatrick’s disappearance when she happily ignored the very lengthy article about it back on 12 January is pushing it too far.
