Toscano’s ‘The Frenchman’ Denies Abducting Madeleine McCann
ANORAK’S man in Portugal, Paulo Reis, hears from The Frenchman, Bernard Alapetite:
“I just came back from holidays and I think those informations and accusations are ridicule. I don’t know who you are. I’ll just tell you that I was in Portugal, for the last time, in 1977″ –
This is a full translation from the reply that Bernard Alapetite, the man accused by Spanish “investigative journalist” Antonio Toscano of being the kidnapper of Madeleine McCann, sent to Gazeta Digital after we asked him a few questions about Toscano’s accusations (…)”
The movie “Like a Brother” was presented at more than a dozen film festivals, including London and Lisbon (9th Gay & Lesbian Film festival, 2005). But Mr. Bernard Alapetite published also several books with pictures of young boys, as referred in the site “La Garconnière” (…) In the portfolios shown at that blog there are images of boys that seem to be as young as 10/12, taken in California, USA, in a style that remembers the once “fashionable” Mapplethorpe and his nude pictures of 4/5 years old children (..)
There is another area where Mr. Bernard Alapetite had an “interesting” activity: the political field. He was one of the collaborators of “Gaie France Magazine”, an extreme-right homosexual publication (…)
Another extreme-right publication where Mr. Alapetite wrote was “Defense de L’Occidente”. In one of its editions of 1976, his name appears with other well known extreme-right politicians, like the Spanish José Antonio Primo de Rivera and the Holocaust negacionist René Faurisson.”
Robert Murat remains the only suspect…

Yeah, and with this information we are satisfied? Only this man reaction? Sorry but it doesnot explain anything. This Bernard Alapetite is still a very dangerous but also influenced bussinessman, the man is not only in legal, but also STILLin illegal bussiness. The french know this, and the other authorities know this too. What worries me even more, why the media and the police is so damn fast in considering that Toscano is not giving any lead of crediblity and that Alapetite really does not have to do anything with Madeleine obduction….
Poor Robert…

well whatever it is they are holding their cards pretty close to their chest on this one, I guess we are getting info on a need to know basis, which is good if it helps the investigation. I think the media publish far too many ‘facts’ anyway
July 1st, 2007 at 12:43 pm
THIS REPORTER SAID THAT THIS FRENCHMAN HAD OFFERED HIM VIDEOS OF CHILD PORN WHILST HE WAS UNDERCOVER, DOESNT JUST SAY OF BOYS THEREFORE HE NEEDS TO THOROUGHLY INVESTIGATED, PEOPLE ARE SAYING WHY WOULD HE TAKE MADELEINE IF HE WAS INTERESTED IN BOYS, DONT BUY IT AT ALL THERES SOMETHING NOT RIGHT HERE, EVEN IF HE WASNT IN INVOLVED HE MIGHT NO SOMETHING IF HE HAS ALL THESE LINKS, PEOPLE LIKE THIS MAKE ME SICK,I JUST HOPE MADELEINE IS OK AND THESE ANIMALS GET WHAT THEY DESERVE.

There are hideous people out there but does highlighting one help solve the mytery?..
July 1st, 2007 at 2:36 pm
Have you got a photo of Bernard Alapetite?
July 1st, 2007 at 3:01 pm
Why is the spelling, punctuation and grammar so appalling in all these responses?
July 1st, 2007 at 3:19 pm
Yes you are right about this Robert Murat. It is also amazing that the portugese police are so low-profile about him. But that might be a media trick. Funny thing is that he is now again in the middle of the investigation….And than the strange story of this witness… Coming up with this after more than 7 weeks past; Murat has been seen in the room of Madeleine the night she was obducted..?
And than this bussiness relation that Murat is having with a english organisation in England?
I have understood, that not only portugese police, but also british investigators are aligned in this case. I must be convinced that Gerry and Kate are clever enough.
The only thing what bothers me, is that Antonio Toscano, and now again ALapetit is so eagerly being acquitted on appeal by the media? Why? I mean nobody is defending the Arab boat story either?
Why being so fast and eager in judging Toscano while the prove of this man being a hoaxer is not given?
Why have opinion about it, and not just find it out…dig it out!?
And this Alapetite with his extreme-right opinions and relations… Make me think about Nihoul and the whole story in Belgium, Also extreme right relations, and now so called ;’legal filmproducer…
This man is also a bussiness man, went into jail, and is now walking free on the streets. He even has a own website Same story as Alapetite? Seems like that these man have some much influence and power, that certain people are afraid….. Also at higher levels and in political very sensitve levels. With other words; enough to cover up. Find out about Belgium story, and you’ll see that when the investigations become really interesting….and the big fish are almost caught, at some point and strange reason, the whole thing is covered up and witness just dissapear……??? They took Dutroux, but never really Nihoul… All the people that had evidence against this man have been systematicly been killed…..
This Alapetite ‘could’ be the same story. At the othter hand, we just do not know. What I just do not understand in general, is that people like Alapetite, Nihoul, and so many others, just serve a few years in jail, and get free, while we know that they have connections with child abuse, and in some cases prove of child abuse, rape etc! Why let them walk on the streets ANYWAY? Are they neccesary for providing the sjit for the wealty rich and prominential people who want to hold their hands clean? Iam pretty damn sure!!!!! And that is also the reason why child porn, and abuse will always exist. Because of this terrible powerfull, rich, but also awfull people….. And thereby; money rules the world, and you can really buy anything. Also a child…

my spelling, punctuation and grammar are so bad, because I am from Italy.. sorry

“Also at higher levels and in political very sensitve levels” (from Alias)
Souinds about right to me.
July 1st, 2007 at 5:00 pm
Yes Anorak, I am afraid that you are, indeed very right: the horrors inside the secret garden…. But we never will find out, because the people involved are obviously that powerfull, that also ‘the madeleine Mc Cann case’ fears the risk of a cover up.
Thougt every year, children dissapear. And there is a lot of evidence, that these children are being used by these paedophile networks. These networks seem to work international, and,apparently, very hard to dismantling. Guess why…..
July 1st, 2007 at 6:13 pm
Alias, decent people want rid of them , but its the bastards within those ‘rings’ that have the power and money, and possibly even contacts where they shouldn’t.
BTW I think your English is fine, my Italian is non existent.
July 1st, 2007 at 6:28 pm
I agree with you Alias. Well said. You make your point…don’t worry about your English. I teach English composition, and have many foreign students in my classes. You present your thoughts with great insight. Your heart speaks loud and clear!! Money does rule the world, and everything can be bought for a fee.
Your are so right…the paedophile networks include the rich and powerful, otherwise they would be broken up. There are too many people in high-up places who have things to hide. I also think there is probably a little bit of incompetence on the part of the police investigating these matters. Just my two cents.

Here you find a picture of Bernard Alapetite

Alias- very well said. The Belgian case was truly scandalous. I hope that is not what is happening here.
July 1st, 2007 at 9:39 pm
“I mean nobody is defending the Arab boat story either?” - Alias
Not really sure what you mean Alias but, my opinion about the “Arab” boat
story is like evey other Malta “sighting”. It’s either a misidentification by
over eager “Madeleine” hunters and tourists or the stories are complete
unsubstanciated rubbish. To think how many people actually took any of the the Malta “sightings” seriously is a sad indication of the low intelligence of those that actually believed it that it could be Madeleine.
You won’t find the most high profiled missing girl in the world on the tiny tourist,British hoiday destination of Malta any more than you would find
Osama Bin Laden wandering down Oxford Street in London.
Of course If there were reports of people who said they spotted Bin Laden
shopping for the latest Paris Hilton DVDs in the Virgin Mega Store, some sad people might actually believe it to be true!
July 1st, 2007 at 10:37 pm
I think people really need to read this whole article that may actually be the first thing we have seen that has any logic. Nothing else makes sence. If this article is wrong then I am sure no one minds being proven wrong here, so would some one please give facts so that we can understand more of what has happened to this young child.

Thats roughly what I thought, or an ‘accidental’death such as choking on vomit etc
The other thing I don’t understand is why Kate appeared and said ’she has gone’ they have two daughters , don’t they? which daughter?
July 1st, 2007 at 11:08 pm
Ahh the famous “Mccann hoax” story that’s been doing the rounds on various forums in the past few days.
It does raise some interesting points that have actually cropped up before in other forums. The trouble is it does base some of its conclusions on information that hasn’t rigourously been proven such as the “they’ve taken her” quote supposedly uttered by Mrs.Mccann.
The conclusion is that the Mccann’s staged this for money and fame, I don’t really buy it though.
The Mccann’s have made mistakes along the way and I don’t particuarly like the way they have managed their affairs ie. the setting up of the fund,
or the organising special Madeleine events or telling the Portuguese police
how they should be conducting their investigtion, however staging a disapearance doesn’t ring true either.
July 1st, 2007 at 11:32 pm
great story but that guy should write a novel !!
I put onus on the word story !
sorry i don’t buy that at all
July 1st, 2007 at 11:37 pm
I still say I should really like to see the PJ’s suspect list.
Think concentrating on one trait from Gerry McCann , his arrogance is the clue.
Oh I agree there are whopping great holes in the theory to drive a bus through, but there are similar holes in the McCanns version of ‘events’.
The Police have really got their work cut out, but oh to be a fly on the wall
(Billy, shut up, I won’t be swatted)
But its odd so few people actually believe the McCanns.
I think accidental death is more probable and its snowballed into this monstrous thing
July 2nd, 2007 at 12:06 am
Anonymous, the accidental death theory is more believable than the “staged disappearance for money and fame theory”. It seems plausable enough that one parent isn’t telling the other the complete truth about what happened. One big problem with the “accidental death” theory is the question about what happened to the body. If there had been an accident then I’d be pretty sure that a body would have been discovered by now.
My theory is that perhaps all the publicity plus Madeleine distinguising eye
imperfection has made the abductors “get rid” of the evidence quite quickly, dumping the body out to sea seems a distinct possibility given that Portugal is one big coastline. I’m obviously hoping I’m wrong and that she is still alive of course.
July 2nd, 2007 at 2:27 am
I highly doubt that it could have been an accidential death, since both Kate and Gerry are doctors (did we forget about this?). You have to remember that although we see some plausability from what we read in that article, there is also much more that we just do not know, and unfortunetly do not get to see. If you go back and read the whole article again, you might just be able you answer some of your own’ questions.
July 2nd, 2007 at 2:57 am
*Some how I do not think that the McCanns’ would have staged little McCann’s abduction for money or fame, but for a higher purpose: Power.
*Why, out of all days, did the “Messages of Support” on the McCann’s website, all of a sudden come stop on June 30th, after the ‘article’ was so pulicized? Was it because the McCanns’ did not want to make the content public any longer, or was it because persons did not want to write any longer?
*It seems as though my own family has been more upset about little McCann’s abduction (if you can call it that), than the McCanns’ them selves; and my family is on the other side of the world. The whole situation is extremely odd!
July 2nd, 2007 at 3:50 am
AM, I’ve gotta say that the Mccann’s did this for “Power” is even a more remote and unlikely motive than for the money and fame.
Whilst this theorist has a right to field his own theory as we all have, I think this ones barking up the wrong tree!
July 2nd, 2007 at 3:58 am
Perhaps it was’t clear from my above post, I but I do not actually support the “accidental death” theory, but find it a more plausible explanation than the Mccann hoax theory.
AM you ask did we forget that they were doctors… no I certainly didn’t, but don’t see how that is all that relevant anyhow. Just because they were doctors doesn’t make any of there children immune from fatal accidents does it?
July 2nd, 2007 at 5:21 am
That just does not make sence. As a child, I grew up going in and out of hospital; some of the times, the only reason I was alive was because my mother was a nurse, she would know what to do. She was only a nurse; the McCanns’ are both doctors. I do not know what part of the world you come from, but in my country if some thing goes wrong with our children, or if there was an accidental dealth, we call for help. The autopsie will show what happens. So you see in this case it would definitely not make any sence to hide an accidental death, that is unless they were trying to cover up something.
July 2nd, 2007 at 9:12 am
I know they are both doctors, but they were both absent, and could have found her already dead on their return from the tapas bar.
I feel what they are trying to cover up is the fact they were absent, and she came to grief in their absence, and it possibly could be ‘mis’contrued as ‘manslaughter’, and they didn’t want the embarresment of being known neglecting parents as they would put the twins custody in jeopardy and also their careers. They do have an awful lot to lose over these allegations - loss of status as parents and doctors- but to me the ‘abduction’ theory reeks of ‘merde’
People with less medical knowledge may have thought it would be ok to’discover’ a dead child the following morning? but they (the McCanns) would know and understand about rigor mortis etc
But the spin we are being spun from the Mccann base is as true as the Barrymore body in the pool
July 2nd, 2007 at 9:47 am
Maybe a bit being deluded here. It is sad to find out that the world is getting so hung up on their own stories together with stupid people who like to eat such stories.
Come on people, get a grip, or go to work, or sport, do something what is good for your health and body, so you can clear your mind.
It is really unbelievable. This famillly is in very deep grieve, you cannot even imagine…!!! and here is somebody who has read a lot of detective stories, with some who like to believe it, because it is maybe to hard to really accept the reality.
If you like this stories, I suggest that you google some more on the internet on paedophile rings, child abuse etc… Instead of making up such bullshit. Maybe that will satisfy you. And that is reality, instead of a made up story…. Have a good meal……….
July 2nd, 2007 at 10:44 am
there is no proof that she was abducted at all
July 2nd, 2007 at 11:31 am
Alias can’t help noticing how extremely fluent you have become…
