Madeleine McCann: Josef Fritzl, Tabloid Bingo And Watching Kate McCann
MADDIE WATCH - Anorak’s at-a-glance guide to press coverage of Madeleine McCann
DAILY MIRROR (front page): “We’ll find Madeleine ourselves”
It is the McCanns’ “EXTRAORDINARY VOW”.
Any news of Metodo 3, the sleuths who would find Madeleine by last Christmas?
TWINS IN VOW TO FIND SIS - MISSING MADELEINE McCANN: ONE YEAR ON
The McCanns’ three-year-old twins Sean and Amelie have promised their grieving parents they will rescue their missing big sister.
Well, why not let them have a go?
Says Gerry McCann: “Madeleine is everywhere in our lives.” All our lives.
IRISH INDEPENDENT: “’One year on, we’re no closer to finding Maddy’”
Says Kate McCann: “There has been that much speculation in a lot of the media, particularly the written press. It’s taking away people searching for Madeleine.”
Says Kate McCann, and not Clarence Mitchell, the McCanns’ media handler.
POLO SHIRTS (a company selling T-shirts): “T-Shirts can be very valuable tools in helping to find missing children. Think about how many people see you each and every day. If you are wearing a T-shirt with the picture of a missing child on it then all of those people are also seeing the child and, hopefully, watching for her everywhere that they go. In the case of Madeleine McCann, the sale of T-Shirts is also helping to raise money for Madeleine’s fund: Leaving No Stone Unturned.”
Let’s hear it for the T-shirts!
GLASGOW DAILY RECORD: “Tragedy Breeds Tourism”
It is a year since Madeleine McCann vanished.
Madeleine McCann and Josef Fritzl? We’ve already had the McCanns and Elisabeth Fritzl. There’s a link? Joan Burnie sees one..
The apartment from which the then three-year-old disappeared has now become a sick tourist attraction, where people take their own kiddies to be photographed where once Madeleine slept.
Next year, can we expect the Austrian Tourist Board to promote tours of the dungeon in which Josef Fritzl incarcerated and abused his daughter?
THE SUN: “Dungeon rescue gives me hope”
Madeleine McCann and Elisabeth Fritzl? A link?
MISSING Madeleine McCann’s mum told yesterday how the astonishing rescue of Austrian dungeon girl Elisabeth Fritzl has given her fresh hope that her daughter is still alive.
Kate, 40, said that hearing how Elisabeth was saved after 24 years imprisonment renewed her belief that little Maddie may also be held captive somewhere.
It’s Tabloid Bingo! Bingo! Bingo!
METRO: “Dungeon fear for Maddy”
THE GUARDIAN: “Fritzl case proves long-term missing can re-emerge, say McCanns”
The couple had taken hope from the case of Elisabeth Fritzl, the Austrian woman whose father locked her in a cellar beneath his house for 24 years, and fathered seven children with her, said Gerry McCann.
DAILY MAIL (front page): “Kate: one year on: A portrait of torment”
Kate McCann is a “GP”.
DAILY TELEGRAPH (front page): “MADELEINE JUST FEELS VERY CLOSE”
Kate McCann:
It’s a sense, really. Madeleine just feels very close. It’s more of a kind of sensation that she’s there. You try to be objective and think, ‘Is that just because I’m her mum and I want to believe it?’ But it hasn’t changed.

” It was actually a Mrs Fenn, and then the statement was retracted. ”
In this forum, we use to say “she has changed her story”.

I will hold a minute silence tomorrow, May 3rd, at noon, in memory of Maddie and all missing and neglected children.
Good Night everybody!

Go tu lunch
Luckyly, some attendants, who have good contacts with the PJ, insisted that Policia Judiciaria “were working very well”, and that, among those people more “in the know”, journalists, Portuguese, Spanish and British police members (outside the investigation but close to it) the opinion was
unanimous: Madeleine is dead (sadly), her body was disposed of … and maybe somebody else which we don’t know yet)
Justice will be done. It’s just a matter of time.
Have a goo day all

The difference is luvvy is myself and others of the same thinking dont continously spew crap towards the McCanns and call them murderous liars. We have a clear concience. Could you say that if you were wrong?
You are out of order.

Yes, IMO, aggressive. I wasn’t exactly asking all of you … I was questioning it myself … which one is the truth. I’m trying to find the facts and not only see also the fiction and prefer to keep a more open mind regarding what really happened to the poor girl.
The fact is … we don’t know yet!

May 2nd, 2008 at 2:45 pm
In the last two or three years, we have had three unsolved cases of missing children: Yeremi Vargas, Sara Morales and another girl, who name dont remember now. The other case (Mary Luz), is sadly solved. I don’t know in the UK, but surely there are not many more. Imagine the papers headlines, if you should have had 800 case only in onye year?
Who the hell are those Amber Alert dark promoters, and what do they win with the current paranoia?

How can it be justice for the McCanns and Madeleine for that matter if the perpetrator of this crime gets away with it?

I understand peoples disdain towards them but unfortunately the relentless sneering is a bit pathetic in my book. People need to grow up a bit, get some fresh or clock out.
With regard to them ‘acting’. It goes beyond that doesnt it? The motives? - poor reasons debated on here imo. The cover up? They have got to be bloody clever to concoct a story and get friends involved etc etc . The acting? Firkin good actors ‘n’ all.
It just doesnt add up at all if you have any common sense about you. Thats why the antis or in the minority. By a long shot!

Jo,
I would dearly like to know why your posts are so aggressive most of the time … my comment was to Garth and the fact that people find it difficult to believe that the parents could not have harmed the child. Is it really necessary for you to be posting so aggressively? I don’t think so! … There you are, Jo, I’ve answered it myself.
May 2nd, 2008 at 2:39 pm
The director a some Spanish association of missing children families (I had never seen him in my life) told that, only in the UK, more than 800 children are missing in a year… Is he crazy? Or maybe he is counting those who hide under the bed to play hide-and-seek? Perhaps he was a camouflaged agent ot the Amber alert… what a crap!

Dont be so judgemental jo my little darlin. You are not going through what they are so probably cant begin to understand the torment it must play on their minds.
*******************
It is the pain and the torment, THEY have created.The pain and the torment,they would have created for Madeleine IF Madeleine had been abducted.
Yes,Garth,I AM judgemental.I have always stood for justice and truth. Their attitude revoltes me because we are talikng about a little child here,aint we?about the truth and the justice for Madeleine,not for them

Hi
After watching the documentary, found McCanns totally convincing. Ofcourse feel very sorry for them loosing their daughter. And agree with amber alert for Europe.
However have remembered neighbour Pamela Fenton( who has apartment above the one they rented), clearly being reported as saying she heard Madeleine crying for 1 1/2 hours two nights before she disapeared. It was reported at the time that the child only stopped crying, calling for daddy when parents heard returning to villa. Therefore Gerry and Kate were clearly aware that one or more of their children were crying when left alone. They make it quite clear in documentary that they were unaware of them being awake at all when left alone. Have seen reports this week (daily Mirror) that Mrs Fenton still lives in apartment. Would like a reported to check again with her.
If McCanns are found to be misleading public on this point, it would give a big clue to their charectors. Am still unsure what to make of them.

It was actually a Mrs Fenn, and then the statement was retracted. If she has made a statement to the police she has every right to refuse to speak to a reporter as it would break the secrecy rules

Hi Garth,
The biggest problem is that because they left the kids alone, it makes them responsible for whatever happened to Maddie, even if they didn’t harm her themselves. This is what makes many posters here so angry and unable to see past that fact. I watched a YouTube video compilation of snap shots where both only parents show sadness and grief. When I watched that, it is difficult to believe that they are acting and I felt their pain. BUT on the other hand, there are video compilations of snapshots of the parents happy and laughing, shortly after the disappearance and later as the months progressed. Which one is the truth????
…………………………………………………………………………………………….
Well they seem to be much more ‘proficient’ in acting ‘happy’ !

‘Your understanding is correct; for example, the McCann family provided the photo of Madeleine and it was up on the BBC website on the 4th May, 2007.’
i find the choice of photo used odd, it’s the one to my mind which is least typical of madeline. agree with the rest of your post.

Read this trash……..
A) I’d like to know how much time was needed to ‘practice’ the abduction?
B) Was it the 40 mins or so after kate found her missing and reported it to the police? And as for actors, surely they must be pretty good because they’ve obviously fooled the PJ for almost 12 months it would appear. And of course the vast majority of the population. So i guess their acting skills is pretty hot dont you think?
C) Of course, unless they arent acting their account is more likely what happened. Have you thought about that one?
********************
A) 90 minutes…………….CHAPLINS
B) Now you’re catching on Garthy
C) Yes but as you stated in (B) I agree with you the new acting skills are hot and the rest is nonsense !
As for you saying “Read this Trash” don’t be so hard on yourself you might be a slow learner but you are making progress IMO
