Madeleine McCann: The Carnival Of Spotters Reaches Brazil And Yeremi Vargas
MADDIE WATCH - Anorak’s at-a-glance guide to press coverage of Madeleine McCann
DAILY STAR (front page): “Maddie is seen alive & well in Brazil”
Madeleine McCann is on a plane bound for Sao Paulo. She has also been spotted in Argentina and Chile. The Star says 11 million people live in Sao Paul. It’s the world’s fifth biggest city.
Such are the facts. Gerry McCann is a “heart consultant”. Kate McCann is a “GP”. Facts.
Madeleine has also been seen in: Portugal, Spain, Malta, Morocco, Belgium, Bosnia, France, Australia and Dorset.
Says Clarence Mitchell: “There have been a handful of sightings of Madeleine in South America. Some have been reported, others have not.”
How do editors decide which sightings got on the front page and which are ignored? How do the McCanns?
Have you seen Madeleine?
DAILY MIRROR: Maddy is ’seen’ on Brazil jet
Interpol was yesterday investigating an apparent sighting of Madeleine McCann in Brazil. The child was reportedly with a man on a flight to Sao Paulo six weeks ago.
Interpol’s chief in Brazil, Jorge Pontes, said: “The sighting is still under investigation so we cannot reveal details. All I can say is that we have a witness insisting they saw the child on a flight.”
THE SUN: “MADDIE ‘IN BRAZIL’”
Sao Paulo is South America’s biggest city. Fact. Ten million Brazilians live in Sao Paulo. Fact. Taking the Sun and Star’s figures into account we deduce that one million foreigners live in Sao Paulo. And one of those is Madeleine McCann. The search is still hard but now looks a whole lot easier.
Marila Moreira, an Interpol delegate, says a man called Mark called saying he had seen Madeleine at a book fair in Rio de Janerio. How many people live there?
Clarence Mitchell, the McCanns spokesman, says: “Our investigators are looking into this”.
DAILY EXPRESS: “Brazil jet link to Madeleine”
The paper says that Brazil has “excellent air links” with Portugal. The county “attracts millions of holidaymakers each year”.
BBC: Yeremi Vargas went missing in Gran Canaria in February 2007.
Across Europe, the case of this missing child has been eclipsed in the headlines by that of Madeleine McCann. But Yeremi’s family are the first to say they have learned some lessons from the McCanns and are determined to make their campaign as far-reaching.
They are not naturally at ease with the media, far from it.
In the weeks following Yeremi’s disappearance, his mother, Ithaisa Suarez, beside herself with grief and heavily sedated, was hardly in a fit state to give interviews anyway.
Will any more of them spot Madeleine?

Clarrie’s grammar is as bad as Gerry’s
“Says Clarence Mitchell: “There have been a handful of sightings of Madeleine in South America. Some have been reported, others have not.”
A HANDFUL - is singular, you stupid boy.
Write out one hundred times
“There HAS been A HANDFUL”
And if they have not been reported how do you know about them ? Or does ‘reported’ mean ‘by you to the press’ rather than reported ‘by the witness to the proper authorities’ ?

You couldn’t be more wrong, all on M and A are bored to death with the topic. Its agony aunt in the flesh, we are not agony aunt, but Anorak.
But some of the posters need their daily fix of MM, for those who don’t there is the rest of the site.

I was just reading stuff and found this comment from
http://blog.geeklawyer.org/2007/05/25/madeleine-mccann-enough-already/
Madeleine McCann: enough already
May 25, 2007 – 4:02 pm …………………………. it was already enough on the 25th of May 2007
Madeleine McCann: enough already
Geeklawyer knows he’ll get flamed for this but it has to be said: enough, please please please. “Our Maddy” stories have reached the point of terminal boredom.
Yes she is incredibly pretty and very sweet. And Geeklawyer concedes that having her on the front page of every newspaper in the Universe, every website everywhere and occupying 90% of all TV news coverage everywhere may possibly get her back. But Lord it is dull.
If she didn’t have such a hot mum and if her family were not articulate and middle class then the press coverage would have been of the standard “Chav family’s Home Alone outrage: this mum should be jailed.” variety.
Can we have a new excuse for national mawkish sentimentality?”

Yeah and I sighted Elvis last year in Seattle

A friend of mine has just called to say that are 6 feet tall amphibious sardines walking around disguised as doctors!!!
Of all the professions in the World - they choose to pretend to be doctors! In the present climate!
Anyway one these sardines was disguised as a doctor as he lay in a deck-chair just after M disappeared last year, spying on the Clan.
He heard one of the Clan say that they felt as if they were all being bugged.
So they decided to do lots of walks on the beach and running up mountains and playing tennis right in the public eye. All the time. In the public eye. All the time ……
Anyway this big fat sardine reckons that he followed them on several occasions disguised as a hillock or a rock and could not believe his ears and some of the things they were discussing. Allegedly.
Anyway he told Amaral everything he knew and whoosh, clunk …. The rattle of iron keys and manacles.
Wow! Bugger ne!
May 14th, 2008 at 9:26 am
Fab news about the three month extension if really true. I can almost smell the perspiration already!
Admit that a big sardine came in the apartment and munched on …..
May 14th, 2008 at 9:37 am
Once again the British press has silly news of M sightings,when they should be reporting that there is sufficient suspicion to have the McCs arguido status extended.!The alleged sightings are mere diversions yet again.

coco
yep!
Officially official
Look up at Joana”s website
Nevertheless, Madeleine was found safe AND well on a plane, enjoying some holidays away from her family,sardines,aliens and straight monsters.
Before hand,she was searched as well,last week end in spain when she didnt turn up at a meeting with M3,present at a Guardia Civil road checks for….stuffed prawns.They decided the to look for her.
Out of this worl,I know but hey! the mccanns world is definitely on a different planet where absolutely everything is possible as long as you subscribe to “special monitoring” and have a psychotic profile.
