Shannon Matthews, Madeleine McCann And Haut De La Garenne
MADDYWATCH - Anorak’s at-a-glance guide to press coverage of Madeleine McCann
EVENING STANDARD: “MAN HELPING IN SEARCH SHANNON MATTHEWS ‘CRUCIFIED’ JUST YARDS FROM MISSING GIRL’S HOME”
A man helping in the search for missing schoolgirl Shannon Matthews is believed to have been crucified outside his house just yards from the nine-year-old’s family home.
Police are investigating the alleged assault of a 43-year-old man who neighbours claim was nailed to a wooden cross through his hands on Sunday night, and some locals claim the attack is related to the hunt for the missing girl.
And the McCanns?
Meanwhile, the McCanns, whose daughter Madeleine disappeared from their holiday apartment in the Algarve last May, have pledged their support to Shannon’s parents.
Writing in his personal online blog, Gerry McCann, said he and his wife Kate were praying for her safe return.
“No matter what has happened to Shannon, there is no doubt she is extremely vulnerable,” he added. “We hope she is found safe and well soon and returned to her family.”
Will the McCanns be called upon to comment on every missing child?
YORKSHIRE POST: “Agencies face abuse inquiry in wake of body find”
Police are searching a former children’s home Haut de la Garenne where they discovered a child’s skull. Police are now searching six more sites at the building now used as a youth hostel.
Police are using Eddie, who works with South Yorkshire Police as an “enhanced victim recovery dog”.
Eddie is said to have picked up traces of missing Madeleine McCann in the back of a car which her parents hired five weeks after she disappeared.

Brandon, perhaps one day if you have children you will understand. As a parent, I can’t bring myself to think the way you people do. It is unimaginable. I don’t know if there are any other mothers on here besides me, but I’m sure they would tell you the same.

I am a mother, but I cannot agree with you SORRY!

LOOK,
Out of interest, have you ever met Kate and Gerry?
February 26th, 2008 at 11:30 pm
Good evening.
Popped in for a while - waiting on puppies to arrive, so thought I’d have five minutes to myself.
Fascinated by our “new” friend LOOK.
How rude. Not been here 5 minutes and has already insulted just about everyone, without so much as a by your leave.
Dear me.
Reminds me of someone, though, just can’t think who. Sure they used to post on here,but were banned.
It’ll come back to me I’m sure.
Meantime… whoosh, clunk, I’m gone

Steve T - they are WORTH more than that!!
Totje - I got a few you could pay while you’re at it…
Dee - its a hard one isn’t it
I still hope that she wandered off and some kindly old biddy took her in for the night. Seeing her parents reaction the next day, thought she might be better off staying where she is, and has not seen anything since to make her chance her mind..

LOOK
Clarence Mitchell has been noticed wearing pink shirts on a couple of occasions. Hence the..er…”jokes”!!
As someone supporting the view that the McCanns may be innocent (other than leaving the children asleep alone in the apartment), you have to be particularly careful what you post in messages. And I’m afraid you have to be prepared for abuse from some quarters. (From others it’s simply a courteous exchange of views.) Anorak is generally very “anti-McCann” although there are exceptions. So put on your tim hat! Want to borrow mine?!
I keep an open mind but haven’t yet seen any sound evidence to support the view that K and G killed Madeleine or covered up some sort of accident which had killed her. Of course, nobody knows what evidence the PJ have. No doubt all will become clear in time with regard to their guilt or innocence but we may never know what happened to Madeleine.

Shoot…. well I can feed puppy from now on fish…. He can’t even find his own ball in the forest

Kate and Gerry McCann are wonderful human beings. Of that I am sure. We can’t imagine how they are feeling at this moment. But I am a great believer in the power of positive thought. Maybe if you pray, as I will do tonight, for Madeleine’s safe return… who knows?
I think that we should be way beyond criticising poor Kate and Gerry now. Some of the comments I’ve read on here are staggering.

There was once a poster called Yampster,
Had a very small brain, like a hamster,
And like all ugly trolls,
He possessed no balls,
So was known as GandolSoothSamster.

I know what you mean, for the first couple of weeks after her dissapearance the horrors that went through my mind of what she might be going through! Well, if it was a paedo that took her, i can only hope she didn’t suffer for too long. Hope that answers your question, without the likes of LOOK and Garth accusing me of wanting her dead.
