Madeleine McCann: In Morocco, Killed By Steps And The 6ixth Sense

gerry-mccann-kate-mccann.thumbnail Madeleine McCann: In Morocco, Killed By Steps And The 6ixth SenseMADDYWATCH - Anorak’s at-a-glance guide to press coverage of Madeleine McCann.

DAILY EXPRESS front page: “MADELEINE: SHE IS IN MOROCCO. I saw her, says reliable new witness…but police says she fell down steps.”

A non sequitur to get the Madeleine McCann week underway.

THE WORLD’S BEST NEWSPAPER hears Samantha Peart say that she saw a girl who looked like Madeleine in Morocco on June 10. She reported it to police, who did “nothing”.

Mrs Peart’s husband is a “stockbroker”. Gerry McCann is a “consultant cardiologist”. Daily Express readers should insert there profession [here].

And the latest theory is that Madeleine died in an accident – she fell down some steps.

Can Madeleine cement her place as the Express’ new Princess Diana, who also died in an accident (?), the paper finds it hard to believe happened?

Page 4 and 5: “Now police say she fell down the steps.”

Page 5 is split in two: “SHE’S DEAD…” and “SHE’S ALIVE”.

DAILY MIRROR pages 4 and 5: Kate and Gerry McCann are “linked in anguish”.

THE SUN page 9: “150 DAYS, 150 NIGHTS…WE PRAY FOR MADDIE.”

Kate and Gerry McCann are in church. They go to church a lot. We always see them go. Father Keith Tomlinson asks: “I think I’m right it saying it’s been 150 days, 150 nights, since that terrible day…We pray for Madeleine and her family.”

“STEPS PLUNGE SLUR” – Portuguese police think Madeleine fell down a flight of stairs at their holiday flat. A “senior police source” says they are “100 per cent certain” the girl stumbled down ten steps head first. He adds: “The only thing to investigate is how the body disappeared.”

Says Clarence Mitchell: “It’s ludicrous. Leaks appear on a daily basis. It’s hurtful.” Mr Mitchell likes the word “ludicrous”.

DAILY STAR page 7: “KILLER STEPS – British cops claim Maddie fell to her death.”
“TV psychic offers help” – Colin Fry, star of TV show 6ixth Sense, says he can use his powers to track down Madeleine.

THE TIMES page 21: “A sacked maid seeking revenge is latest suspect over missing Madeleine.”

Sunday’s news hits the Times. The tip-off emailed to the official website of:

a) The McCanns
b) Prince Charles
c) Girls Aloud?

The answer is… (b).

Clarence House informed Scotland Yard, who informed Leicestershire police, who informed a journalist, who informed the world.

“Mother who buried child in garden to be deported to UK” – The Times sees fit to underscore the McCann story with the tale of Tracy McHugh, who secretly buried her newborn baby in her Florida garden.

DAILY MAIL page 6: “Now the Portuguese say Madeleine died in fall on a staircase” – but the Star says the cop making this slur is British?

DAILY TELEGRAPH page 11: “Madeleine died after fall down steps, say detectives” – Say Portuguese police.

The McCanns are in discussion to appear on US talk shows. To keep Madeleine in the news. Madeleine has not been spotted in the US. Not yet.

THE GUARDIAN and THE INDEPENDENT: No Maddy news.

The Sightings So Far

  1. 1 Tony Bennett Says:

    1029 Kate (Sunday’s thread) said:

    “I see the grief. I see the torture in their faces, the anquish is there. In their bodies as well, they are thinner, more gaunt looking. It is wearing them down”.

    REPLY: Most of what you say is probably true - the ‘torture’ in their faces, looking more gaunt etc. I assess this, however, as being due to the mental torture of having been responsible for the death of their daughter, and the strain of continuing to cover it up, however effective they think they’ve done it so far, and however brilliantly they perceive that their legal and media teams have worked for them. It’s not because they are upset that their daughter has been abducted

    1004 Kate (Sunday’s thread) said:

    “outright hatred of the McCanns”

    REPLY: I doubt of any of us ‘McCann-sceptics’ ‘hate’ the McCanns. If it turned out, after all, that they had a part in their daughter dying that night and then covered it up with a hoax abduction, I would not hate them at all. More than likely I would pity them for the tortured future they would have to endure.

    Are you sure you’re not projecting your own hatred of McCann-sceptics on this forum on to the McCann-sceptics? It’s a very common psychological phenomenon

  2. 2 Jacqueline de Croÿ Says:

    The Portuguese co-investigators in the McCann case and charged for beating Leonor Cipriano, smothering or falsifying the evidences have also failed to notice that the key testimony, brought by her lover and which led to her condemnation for having chopped Joana in pieces and given her to the pigs, has told “The Sun” she never did anything.

    “The Resident” of 20 October 2005, whereas the verdict was due for November 11:

    “The trial included key testimony from Joana’s stepfather, António Leandro, who related that Leonor had confided to him that she had had a sexual relationship with her brother. He also told the court that during this conversation, which took place a few days after Joana’s disappearance, at judicial police headquarters, Leonor had admitted that she and her brother had killed the little girl”. (…) “The key element was a saw allegedly used to dismember the child, recognised by the liar as a saw he kept at home.” http://portugalresident.com/portugalresident/showstory.asp?ID=10046

    Portuguese sniffer dogs never found the bones in the pigsty.

    “…So, they decided to get rid of he body and cut it in pieces, keeping some of them in the freezer, while they gave the other pieces to be eaten by pigs (this is what police believes is the strongest possibility, because there was no other trace of Joana Cipriano, unless the blood samples in her mother freezer…)” http://gazetadigitalmadeleinecase.blogspot.com/2007/07/truth-about-leonor-cipriano-mother-of.html

    ‘These cops framed my wife” - By OLIVER HARVEY - The Sun - September 08, 2007

    “Leandro, Joana’s stepfather, said: “Leonor never did anything yet she was arrested. I am fearful the same thing will happen to Kate McCann. Whenever I watch the news it reminds me of Joana. It is hard.”

    Two people have already spent three years in Portuguese prison in this case, though the key witness has lied at the intention of the international press. Hopefully, England will not let Kate McCann be victim of this sort of “justice”.

    Is that you as anonymous.
    I was wondering where you had gone.
    Always found your voice rational and knowledgeable
    Do you think this is ever going to end.

    Wow sounds like Mary Magdalene and the disbelieving disciples write for the Express.

    What does the 6ixth Sense have to do with anything Anorak? Have you been reading peoples forums by any chance?

  8. 8 susanna Says:

    I posted the other day how I had a dream.
    There was a room with a table. On the table was a 30 piece puzzle with Madeleine’s face. A piece in the center was missing.
    A Dutch/German detective handed a piece to the PJ. It fitted perfectly.
    The puzzle was complete.
    The reason that I mention this again is on some posting I read yesterday, it claimed that Strongwood had never stopped investigating.
    It was a lie that the PJ informed them that their investigation was illegal.
    So perhaps with a little help from a Dutch Team that case can be closed.
    It certainly is time.

    3. Hey Susanna,

    Yes it is me or should that be “I”? Someone kept signing on under my name so for now I an anonymous (kind of).

    I was hoping you had some nice tea out on your terrace? Right now I’m drinking this fantastic black China tea infused with tangerine and ginger. Really nice. I’ve appreciated your intelligent thoughts on this mystery as well.

    I was away in Prague for a week. We got back Thursday last. I tried reading through old Anorak messages to catch up. Then I found someone had used my name and was like “Oh brother!” I decided to skip the old stuff and read the current threads.

    Thanks for the kind words.

    I don’t know if this case will ever be resolved. My husband was talking about all the well known unsolved mysteries in the world and it was disheartening to think Madeleine’s story may move into that category.

    In Prague we met a lot of Brits and many of them believe Gerry is a Freemason and this has something to do with Madeleine’s disappearance and the preferential treatment they are receiving. I don’t know there are so many theories out there!

    Morning Folks.

    A question for Monday;

    “Why is the British government to interested in, and supportive of, the McCanns when they haven’t done so for anyone else in similar circumstances….. ever?”

    a) Is it linked to the Gordon Brown-Andrew Brown-EDF Energy-COMARE-Gerry McCann connection?

    b)Is it linked to the Gerry McCann-Peter McCann-Castle Craig-Famous folks with bad habits clinic info?

    c) Is it because they seemed like really nice folks and the government felt they needed special help.

    d) Something else…..

    Answers on a postcard to the regular address…..

    The good old Limey cops………………..MADELEINE McCann died after tumbling down steps outside her family’s holiday apartment, a team of British police claim.

    They think she stumbled and cracked her head on the floor after waking up and looking for her missing parents.

    That is the shock judgement of Brit officers brought in to search the family’s apartment in Praia da Luz, Portugal, with sniffer dogs specially-trained to detect blood and death.

    Last night it was alleged that it was UK detectives – and not their Portuguese counterparts – who first raised suspicions about the possible involvement of Madeleine’s parents.

    And after their report last week, Portuguese detectives are said to be “100% certain’’ the four-year-old died at her family’s Algarve flat on May 3.

    They had thought Madeleine and her two-year-old twin siblings, Sean and Amelie, were given sedatives to help them sleep while parents Kate and Gerry, both 39, dined out with pals at a tapas bar 40 yards away.

    But, according to Brit police information leaked to a Portuguese paper, Madeleine woke up and went to look for her parents.

    There are “strong suspicions’’ the dazed youngster stumbled down 10 steps outside the door.

    The paper claims: “The death was due to traumatic shock to the back of the head against ceramic tiles on the stairs.
    “The only thing left to investigate now is how the body disappeared.’’

    Portuguese detectives now plan to send a letter to British police with more than 40 key questions they say the McCanns must answer.

    British officers will then decide how and where those questions will be posed.

    The move was ordered by prosecutor Luis Bilro Verao, who also wants the couple’s holiday pals re-questioned too.

    And, according to Portuguese newspapers, at least some of them may be named as official suspects – like the McCanns.

    Earlier this month Mr Verao said the pair would not be re-quizzed unless new evidence arose but the British findings have prompted a rethink.

    Results of the latest forensic tests at the apartment are due within days. And detectives have been searching in fridges and cool spots where the body may have been hidden.

    It also emerged last night that suspicion fell on Maddie’s parents back in mid-July, after Portuguese detectives said the case had stalled and first appealed to the UK for help.

    A Brit police source said: “Our detectives use a mantra in big investigations – ‘clear the ground under your feet’.

    “Here, that meant look at the apartment and the circle closest to Madeleine – her family.

    “They should have been the first to be looked at properly.’’

    The McCanns deny any involvement in Maddie’s disappearance and say she could still be alive. They say they are being framed by Portuguese police desperate to solve a case they have bungled.

    5. Lucy,

    I believe Anorak is like an omniscient benevolent God who is simply giving us the news for the day. He’s a humorous jolly God and I think the “6th Sense” headline is a turn on DAILY STAR’s page 7: “KILLER STEPS – British cops claim Maddie fell to her death.”
    “TV psychic offers help” – Colin Fry, star of TV show 6ixth Sense, says he can use his powers to track down Madeleine.

  13. 13 susanna Says:

    Paulette,
    There is an article on Propaganda Matrix about pedophilia in government circles.
    Freemasons etc.
    There is obviously some reason this couple is protected to the extent they are and I am afraid it is probably by some forces that control more than we realize they control.
    I find the very fact that the war in Iraq has continued for so long despite being based on a lie is indicative that the truth cannot prevail in our current society.
    That having been said I am very warmed to hear about the aborted attack on Iran with the American airforce jet armed with nuclear warheads. The Truth Seeker reports that it was planned to launch an attack on Iran but members of the US Airforce and Intelligence blocked it. Since then 6 personnel involved in the situation have been killed.
    But the fact remains that for the first time in ages it seems that intelligence won over blind hatred.
    And I think once true intelligence breathes air it grows into something rather beautiful.
    I believe Madeleine came to allow that intelligence to gather.
    I believe the tide is turning.
    My jaded cynicism is drying out and hope is born.
    Within two days, I believe this case is going to have a major turn.
    That just came to me now,
    My current favourite terrace drink is hot water and lemon with a sprig of fresh peppermint.
    Have to go and home school four kids now, will catch up later.

  14. 14 Jacqueline de Croÿ Says:

    Incredible: Portuguese police had forgotten to look for Madeleine in the fridge!

  15. 15 Colombo Says:

    11 lady if you wanna know about freemasonry ask the Scotch people,as GM is an alleged devout RC he would be very unlikely to be linked to masons,all to do with bigotry and religion I hear.

  16. 16 Anonymous Says:

    13. Maybe it’s different in the US and Italy? Many Freemasons in the US are RC, Jewish, Methodist etc….The only requirements in the US is that you are male and believe in God. I say this because I have friends who are Masons. None are 33º though. That level I am not certain I know how one attains it. Burlusconi is a Roman Catholic and a Freemason. A few Italians I have met believe the reason the McCanns are being protected and have such massive government assistance is solely due to Gerry’s Freemason membership (not sure what it’s called).

  17. 17 Jacqueline de Croÿ Says:

    15. Freemasonry is completely different from one country to another. In Belgium, it was the antichrist while in Sweden any good Christian had to join the freemasonry. Should all freemasons hide their children in the fridge, police would have a lot of work.

  18. 18 bunnboo Says:

    If the Uk cops first considered the mccanns guilty does that make it more credible than the ‘keystone cops’ in portugal? For me the fact that they think that she fell down steps they must have some forensic eveidence pointing to this. I think it won’t be long til this is all out in the open. Are the UK cops still going to interview kate?

  19. 19 Toni Says:

    Good Morning all, well day 150 came and went, sorry SSS, was hoping for something. I think the missing maid needs to be found, one of the first drawings one of the other psychic’s did was of a female in a maids uniform, she said find the maid and you will find maddie..

  20. 20 bunnyboo Says:

    i think it is being member to an orange lodge that is more to do with bigotry than masons, as they are solely for protestants (mainly bigots) and masons are non denominational.

  21. 21 Colombo Says:

    14 the term 33 as in degrees pertains to the Royal Arch a higher or highest level od Freemasonry,how do I know this,because my late uncle a Scot was a Past Master of that noble fraternity,he also told me that it was not wise to put an RC forward,as the “Craft” was seen as singularily against the church of Rome.The very odd thing is that while telling its adherents {church of rome that is} that Freemasonry is devil worship,two of the highest Masonic lodges are Vatican based,namely P1 and P2,who were linked to the infamous Calvi,God’s Banker case,all rather strange,murmerings also of another organisation Opus Dei,which is strictly devout RC’s only.

  22. 22 man on a hill Says:

    11 Susanna. It’s no surprise to hear that you are a home schooler, my partner does that for our two little one’s. You don’t sound as if you are a big drinker(if any) either. And you probably don’t put your children in childcare. You might even be one of the few people in the world who have a satisfying sexual relationship with your partner of choice. Congratulations, you are now free to talk about this case with an open and honest heart.
    If you are a boozer/doctorl/churchgoer/holiday addict/sexual deviant or anyone that holds position and wears a badge for the state the temptation to defend the McCanns must be intolerable.
    Make no mistake it is the state, it’s drugs and it’s lack of love that are on trial here.
    And to the person that told me to “chill out” yesterday, that is just another way of saying “shut-up I find your words uncomfortable”.

  23. 23 Batman Says:

    If it is British cops saying Madeleine fell down the stairs, seems like they too are dismissing the abductor story. There must be more forensic evidence than any of us know about. Hopefully it will all end soon.

  24. 24 m.e. Says:

    Brit police source..”They (the McCanns) should have been the first to be looked at properly.”

    A statement of the obvious. Pity the portugese police dont know how to do basic policing.

    If they had done this (and there were clear reasons to be suspicious) we would likely be much nearer knowing if the McCanns were involved here.

  25. 25 firestar Says:

    i’d be surprised at a catholic freemason, especially since the pope wiped out the knights templar in the first place.

    one condition of joining is to not like catholics or the pope.

  26. 26 firestar Says:

    17?
    you were hoping for something?

    i think we have the real story at last.

    i’d say that’s quite something.

  27. 27 firestar Says:

    it’s worth looking at last nights posts from about 1 am onwards.

  28. 28 firestar Says:

    in summary.

    she was sedated.

    woke up and went to look for mum

    fell down the steps and died.

  29. 29 Tessa Says:

    11 - That having been said I am very warmed to hear about the aborted attack on Iran with the American airforce jet armed with nuclear warheads.

    Susanna, what are you talking about here?? Are you making up stories? This is a serious allegation. There was not aborted attack on Iran with nuclear warheads. Where are you getting your information from?

  30. 30 Anonymous Says:

    23. Lots of Roman Catholic Freemasons in the US. And Silvio Burlusconi the wealthiest man in Italy; 37th wealthiest person in the world; Roman Catholic; media mogul; former Italian PM is a Freemason.

    It appears it’s just in certain Eruopean countries where Masons and Catholicism is an unwanted combination.
