Madeleine McCann: Marcos Correia Knows, A Find And Jeremy Vargas
MADDYWATCH - Anorak’s at-a-glance guide to press coverage of Madeleine McCann
DAILY MIRROR front page: “DIVERS HUNT FOR MADDY IN LAKE – Underworld tip-off leads to fresh search”
“The hunt, near the Algarve resort where she went missing in May, followed an underworld tip-off to lawyer Marcos Correia
Says Marcos: “They told me she was thrown into a deserted lake with murky waters. I’m convinced this is the place”
Pages 4 and 5: “I believe this is where Madeleine’s body lies”
Mr Correaia is a “Good Samaritan”. He is paying for a team to search the lake. And the name of this lake? It’s the Barragem do Arade reservoir. The police have been here before
Marcos says: “I was able to identify the site on December 10 and immediately informed police. Who did nothing”
The Mirror says he was “ignored”
Says Marcos: “I got tried of waiting for them to act on my information, so I decided to act”
The police went to the reservoir in October, and here
“MY BOYS LOST TOO” – Jeremy Vargas is missing. He went missing form Gran Canaria eight weeks before Madeleine McCann vanished
Says Jeremy’s mum Ithaisa Suarez: “Police from Madrid told me that they have been in contact with Portuguese police investigating Madeleine”
DAILY STAR front page: “Maddie: Divers’ shock find at bottom of lake”
They’ve found here?
Page 12: “’Maddie’s body is in this lake’,” says Marcos Correia. Divers have made a “significant” find
It’s a…length of knotted cord “which could have been used to truss up a body”
Says Marcos: “I am determined to carry on until I find Madeleine’s body or satisfy myself she is not here”
Says the dive coordinator Alan Wilson: “The divers are searching entirely by touch, feeling in the silt”
The search could take some time
DAILY EXPRESS: “MADELEINE: LAKE IS SEARCHED AFTER UNDERWORLD TIP-OFF”
A team of frogmen are “trawling the massive Barragem do Arade lake 30 miles from Praia da Luz where the little girl went missing last May”
Found anything?
“They have recovered a length of plastic cord which has been handed to Portuguese police and are examining a large square-shaped block found at the bottom of the reservoir”
What other treasures lurk in the deep?
Says Marcos Correia: “It is logic that if you throw a body in the water you would tie it to something to weigh it down. It could have been a madman or a gang, I don’t know”
But let’s speculate, anyhow
Says the McCanns’ spokesman Clarence Mitchell: “We are grateful to anyone who has important information in the search for Madeleine”
“PARENTS ‘WERE MADE SUSPECTS TOO FAST’” -Words from Alipio Ribeiro, the Policia Judiciaria’s national director
THE SUN: “Maddie divers in lake tip-off”
“A lawyer claims he was told Maddie, four, was killed within 48 hours of being snatched in Praia da Luz, 40 miles away. Police have dismissed the theory”

Plastic cord. Well that settles it!

Living at the bottom of a magic lake like a little mermaid. Obviously.
February 4th, 2008 at 8:12 am
Says Marcos Correia: “It could have been a madman or a gang, I don’t know”
I agree, could have been a madman/women and/or a gang.
February 4th, 2008 at 8:20 am
Or it could’ve been the parents, oh no, too complicated…
It was the bungling police, or was it Mr Jenkins the janitor?
February 4th, 2008 at 8:38 am
Can anyone confirm the whereabouts of Michael Jackson that night? His latest batch of surgery gives him a striking resemblance to all the suspects.
February 4th, 2008 at 8:43 am
If we suppose that the drs’ mcc know where maddie was ‘dumped’ (sorry can’t think of a nice way of putting it), could the marcos correia stories be the actual preparation for them actual finding her???
He appeared from no where around 3 weeks ago giving us a story that tied in to what met3 were saying. Remember the claims that maddie was spotted being transferred from one car to another two days after she dissapeared? If they find her body team mcc will be all over the press stating that this lawyer independent of team mcc proves that they had nothing to do with it. IMO
I have tried to google marcos but all the links seem to be in portuguese, perhaps one of our portugeuse posters could check him out? does he, for example, have any links to the mcc’s portuguese defence lawyer?? where does this man come from? why is he spending his own money to search this lake??
Team mcc have been oddly quiet about him and his stories IMO- their usual form would be to jump all over stories that ‘proved’ their innocence. Are they trying to keep a distance to increase his credibility in the event that he finds maddie??

Morning all
So here we are again…..the only thing they want is to be cleared.
No news about going to portugal where poor little Madeleine”s body is.
Where did this man find the cash for the “hunt”?
Yes,the PJ have looked in that lake already.
They have not dismissed anything as we all know…..they were hasty in stopping them leg it to the UK.
I agree with Ribeiro who is not “precipitating” himself about ther arguido status either to remove it or maintain it.
No news from Mari Luz…oh no,excuse me! Her parents are selling their only property valued at 150.000€ to have her back.
No further “support” from our wonderful pair???
No news from Yeremi.Are tyhe spanish cops looking for him? did they look for him properly?his parents are real bad coz they did not make a media circus and over all they didnt go to the Vatican in a private jet???? wow…some people need parental guidance dont they?
BUT are Mari Luz and Yeremi” parents arguidos????? or is it too precipitated?
Little children,you,and so many others, we think about you.One day,justice will tell and will be made to you.

I doubt very much he is spending his cash 1000 pounds per DAY??? and apparently according to the Daily Express
We have 2 things here: a new spin and parents who are not flying to portugal and BE there just in case they find Madeleine”s body……

Or maybe another smokescreen to focus attention from the correct location.
