Madeleine McCann: Death Threats And A Bedroom Intruder
MADDIE WATCH - Anorak’s at-a-glance guide to press coverage of Madeleine McCann
LEICESTER MERCURY: “DEATH THREATS MADE TO GERRY AND KATE”
Gerry and Kate McCann have installed panic alarms and CCTV cameras at their Rothley home after receiving “menacing letters and e-mails”.The report, in a Sunday newspaper [The People], said the parents have received two death threats - and one sender suggested an intruder would target the missing five-year-old’s bedroom.
And do what? Take pictures for a tabloid?
The People quotes a Leicestershire Constabulary spokesman who tells the world:
“Unfortunately, there are some lunatics out there. They will not let these people break them down.”
Does that sound like an objective police officer?
Says Clarence Mitchell, the McCanns’ spokesman:
“I can state that on the instigation of Gerry and Kate McCann, Madeleine is a ward of the High Court of England and Wales.
“An application has been made on Madeleine’s behalf by her parents for disclosure of certain documents. The hearing is currently scheduled for July 7 in the High Court in London.
“It has been the stated intention of Gerry and Kate McCann to leave no stone unturned in doing everything necessary to search for their daughter, as would any parent.
“This application is just part of their search for Madeleine.”
Same story in the Mail.

Is the person who has signalled intention to break into M’s bedroom a forensics officer with a Keela- Eddie cross-breed by any chance? lol
June 24th, 2008 at 8:53 am
Or a Spiritualist medium?

Who hasn’t thought about going into the Rothley home - just to get a feel of the place?
I don’t know why the media refer to the house as a luxury home - except for the price perhaps - because it is the most sterile, impersonalised place I have seen.
It looks like a utilitarian place inside and out!
June 24th, 2008 at 8:57 am
Not Colin! Maybe the Derek Acorra! lol
June 24th, 2008 at 8:59 am
I have always been concerned that the media is constantly reminded by the Clan that M’s bedroom is exactly as she left, not changed, just the same, nothing moved …….
I bet it’s been stripped, painted, cleaned - obsessively - I don’t know why I think this - I think I am getting a message from Spirit …… Ooooooooohhhh!

Why am I always alone on here??????
June 24th, 2008 at 9:03 am
hello coco
im here
June 24th, 2008 at 9:05 am
Thank God! Thought I was scaring people away!
June 24th, 2008 at 9:06 am
no no, loveyour posts
why do you think they are going to the trouble of taking leicester police to court to gain access to the files that will be available to them anyway a week later?
June 24th, 2008 at 9:09 am
WTF …. Am I right in thinking that M’s woc status would only have been imposed by the Court?
I understand the Defence using it to get hold of Witness Statements to get some stories straight etc but I thought that once made a woc she is no longer under the guidance of the suspect parents.
June 24th, 2008 at 9:11 am
CM will need to get suitable material ready to hand out as a press package! And to make excuses for everybody etc
June 24th, 2008 at 9:14 am
They don’t just want the sightings stuff. Although it will be great if there have been sightings everywhere because it puts doubt in the minds of feeble people.
June 24th, 2008 at 9:17 am
24 coco
I dodnt know all the ins and outs of woc, but i would suspect that it wasnt requested by the mccs, why would anyone want to make their child a woc? But then again, everything these two do is wierd
June 24th, 2008 at 9:19 am
I wish the honourable silky LAWENER would come on and explain one of his comments from yesterday about his believing that an ABDUCTOR was seen by at least three people.
I want to know how an abductor would have had time to tidy the bedding and enter and leave without shedding a hair or leaving a trace.
Having spoken to several SAS pals of my Hubby I can offer this abductor more work than he could ever imagine as a training officer in various military organisations.
I bet there a few cat-burglars who are dying to know his secrets! LOL
June 24th, 2008 at 9:20 am
coco
Exactly!!! There would have been some sort of trace left from a stranger wouldnt there?
June 24th, 2008 at 9:22 am
It could be a very seldom used ploy from the tactical aid arm of the Defence which negates yet more responsibility from the Clan but it would be prejudicial should proceedings occur.
It can also create other loop-holes though during process which will be needed during extradition proceedings.
