The Kate McCann Calendar, Elisabeth Fritzl And A Suspect Strike Again
MADDIE WATCH - Anorak’s at-a-glance guide to press coverage of Madeleine McCann
DAILY MIRROR (front page): “KATE: I need to know Madeleine is alive..or dead”
The Mirror says Madeleine McCann went missing on “May 3 2007 9:15pm.”
Or not. Such are the facts.
THE SUN (front page): “MASDDIE – Part Two of our harrowing series”
How does it end? First read the “12-PAGE SPECIAL”.
“Maddie – A YEAR IN THE DARKNESS”
A case told in headlines:
“’Do a year in jail and you can all go home.’ NO!’”
“Tears of relief and sadness as McCanns come home”
It’s the Kate McCann calendar – 12 pictures of Kate McCann, one for each month Madeleine’s been gone. A straw poll in the Anorak office says Kate makes a decent Miss September and blooms in April. May is not her best month…
“Theory after theory..but not a single proper lead”
“So many Maddies, and wild goose chases”
“The life of torment they now endure”
“’Maddie suspect’ bid to grab girl”
Robert Murat?
A MAN matching the description of Madeleine McCann’s suspected abductor has tried to snatch a 15-year-old girl, it was revealed last night. Portuguese cops are looking into last month’s incident, which happened 30 miles from where Maddie vanished last May 3.
The man exposed himself to the Dutch girl in the village of Senhora da Rocha and tried to pull her into his Jeep. She fled from the fiend, who was about 40 with pony-tailed long hair. Police have circulated his description
DAILY STAR: “DEATH THREAT TO MADDIE PARENTS”
Says Clarence Mitchell: “On two occasions we have had to refer to the police but I don’t want to go into any detail about that.”
Good of the Star to fill in the silence.
“’Match’ is back in picture” – Detectives are “probing” the attempted abduction of a Dutch girl 30 miles from where Madeleine went missing.
Is it the same man the McCanns’ private detectives fingered, the one Gail Cooper saw? Or not?
THE HERALD: “Why sex-addicted peer cannot say he’s a victim”
Madeldine McCann and sex addict peer Irvine Laidlaw. What link? Colette Douglas home looks at the matter?
And then there is Madeleine McCann. The anniversary of her abduction is on Saturday. I know a little girl the same age as Madeleine and have seen over the year a maturing in her that Kate and Gerry McCann have missed. Madeleine is five now. She should be getting ready for primary one. She is a victim, even if she has been abducted by a well-meaning family who want a child. And that’s the biggest if of all. Her parents, too, are victims. They have lost their lovely little girl; they have been accused of harming her; they have been vilified for the admitted error of leaving her sleeping while they ate dinner 50 yards away. They live in an ongoing nightmare of not knowing where she is or even if she is alive. Stories such as that of Elisabeth Fritzl must sear them to the bone. If such a thing is possible, then what might Madeleine’s fate be?
Tabloid Bingo!

The spin appears to be getting weaker….and weaker….and weaker.
Too much and it just dilutes itself.

Colette Douglas Home didn’t do her research - Madeleine would be preparing for Primary 2.
And why would the Elizabeth Fritzl case sear them to the bone? What has a father keeping his daughter in a cellar got to do with a child going missing from an apartment?
How do these hacks get jobs????

I believe she’s married to someone important.
And she was the lady who decided to ignore the lengthy coverage in her newspapers of a baby killed by her father who only admitted it 15 months later, in favour of a rant on How Wonderful the McCanns are and how we need to Declare War On Child Abductors!
Which gives you a very clear idea of what her priorities are…
