Madeleine McCann ‘Suspect’: Toscano’s ‘The Frenchman’ Is Bernard Alapetite
PAULO Reis writes from Portugal:
Madeleine’s “alleged” kidnapper, “El Francés” (The Frenchman) a.k.a Bernard Alapetite
(…)
Bernard Alapetite, a.k.a “El Francés”, was arrested in June 1997, by French Police, in an operation that put 323 people under investigation and 24 detained. Alapetite was a producer of legal homossexual porno movies, but had also a illegal business, buying foreign movies of young boys being raped, copying and selling those videos for 120 Us dollars each. In 2000, Bernard Alapetite, 47 years old at the time, was sentenced to three years in jail by a French Court from Macon, south western France.
This is the same man Toscano told journalists, yesterday, after the hearing at Polícia Judiciária, in Portimão, that “has Madeleine with him”. “El Francés”, as the Spanish journalist said, “will make no harm to Madeleine”, Gerry and Kate McCann “don’t need to worry”.
But Bernard Alapetite, a.k.a. “El Francés” (according to Antonio Toscano and his friend Reinaldo Colás) after serving his three years in jail, went back to his legal bussiness and produced two movies, for the gay & lesbian circuit, in 2005 and 2006: “Comme un frère” (“Like a brother”, that can be bought at “Amazon.com” for 9,65 pounds) and “Vincent River”, also available at “Amazon.com”. He is one of the “bloggers” at “Les Toiles Roses” where he published a chronicle on May 2 (the day before Madeleine was abducted) a movie’s critic about “300” and “Ne touchez pas la hache”.
On May 27, wrote a second chronicle about the Gilbert & George exibition, at “Tate Modern”, in London – and the text seems to suggest that he was there.

this article is pure bullshit, i don’t understand how it can still be online.
i know Bernard very well and there is absolutely no way he could be involved with the whole Maddie case.
this is another exemple of how internet can drive people to nonsense. now this page is linked to his name based on pure allegation by some obsucre journalist…
very sad…

If a child is microchipped, the evil ones will find it and dig it out. DNA is better and fingerprinting perhaps, or, like they do with cars these days, insert something that cannot be picked up by xrays. All child abuses need to be chemically fixed and put away for good.

Mods and Admin, This IS MamaB… Firstly- I DID NOT say -Actually I like the idea of them being used to test drugs and harmful products…get with the plot

No one suggested you did, I said I did! and I am very much with the plot…..

Having read a bit back, I can imagine the mind boggling…
Other threads are slow today, though there are 2 at the same time on MM. And lots of regulars missing. Well, probably means I can go to bed at a reasonable time.
Have a good night

The other suggestion for these putrid, poor excuses of the human race (paedophiles, I mean)is to send them out as “cannon fodder” in the most dangerous war zones, as body decoys, that way we will save REAL MEN from being killed or harmed, whilst the paedophiles, murderers,rapist s and TERRORISTS can at last safeguard real decent, normal law abiding citizens by taking their place,by being their substitutes - Why should these people go into prison for short or long terms only to come out ,unchanged or worsened, to re-offend maybe in a more violent, evil way…whilst we pay for their board and lodging in Her Majesty’s Prison.

Like your comment, Mods & Admin. We’ve discussing drug testing in another thread and in a different context.
.
Question: Where does this nr. 30 comment on an old thread come from all of the sudden?

These paedophiles are not people, nor are they animals,normal animals have a behavioural code built in them, and they survive, eat,hunt and procreate in the male /female natural style, in order to further the continuation of the species- paedophiles are the twisted renagades of the species, selfishly using the weakness and vulnerability of the little ones who trust them for their own filthy reasons, HURTING,FRIGHTENING,DEFILING,ABUSING NOT ONLY THE INNOCENT LITTLE CHILDS BODY, BUT THEIR MIND ,BODY, SOUL and SPIRIT- WHICH STAYS WITH THEM ALL THEIR LIFE. These are the SCUM of society, it is these repulsive ,perverted , rotten slimeballs , who should be castrated, plus after their court hearings instead of costing the normal tax paying citizen by keeping them in prison, either drop them over the deepest part of the ocean from a helicopter with weights on their feet…oh you are shocked at ME ?? Do you know the Bible spells precisely THAT punishment to any one
who HURTS A CHILD (it does not mention the helicopter)but to anyone who does anything evil or hurts a little child, it will be better for him to have a millstone around his neck, and he be thrown in the deepest part of the sea, than face the ALMIGHTY GOD ON JUDGEMENT DAY

Marian,
You’re right about chemical castration, it does not work on pedophiles. Neither does actual medical castration. They cannot be rehabilitated. They cannot be stopped. This has been proven time and time again; they get caught, they go to jail for 1 or 3 years, they get out and they do it again. All that jail, with the possibility of parole, does for these freaks is it gives them a chance to think about how to abuse children even better when they get out. How not to get caught. How to convince everyone that they’re fixed. Some become religious and meet single mothers in churches and abuse children that way. There are all kinds of hideous things these freaks do.
Jail time gives them a chance to think about how they’ll go about getting away with the next one. Repeat offenders get worse. Some even kill their victims to avoid jail. Do we really have a need for people like this in our society?
I think the only way to stop them is to preform frontal labotomys or give them life in prison or death….for those that kill that is. The urge or impules comes from their mind. They cannot control their thoughts when they see children.
I strongly encourage everyone to read as much as you can about pedophiles. Find interviews with them on the net. Find studies. See for yourself how they describe their behavior and how they say they can’t control themselves.
A father in the US was sexually abusing his 2 year old son. the judge gave him something like 60 or 70 years in jail. The man asked the judge for more time because he did not want to be able to make parole ever….that said much. They hurt the children so badly.

SO THIS FRENCHMAN SAYS HE KNOWS NOTHING, I THINK THE POLICE SHOULD SEARCH HIS PROPERTIES, IF NOTHING IS FOUND NO HARM BUT THIS COULD BE THE BREAKTHROUGH.HOW DO WE KNOW THIS SPANISH JOURNALIST ISNT IN ON IT, AND AS FOR THOSE TO EVIL ……DISPOSE OF THEM.
July 1st, 2007 at 5:51 am
Morning everyone (I’m in OZ). Right Jan remember what happened to that Getty Boy? They took his ear off. I was thinking of microchipping as well being a good idea till you brought that up.
Chemical castration which is carried out cannot stop the urges, only the physical response is slowed, so children can still be harmed by them (sex offenders).
Hi Hecate joined your site, amazing.

I find it rather strange that the 2 people arrested, given their previous convictions, would open themselves up again in the way they did, it’s almost like they were saying, “ok here we are…” Surely they must have known that the police would be involved in this?
June 30th, 2007 at 11:16 pm
Jan I think so too, Hecate
June 30th, 2007 at 9:58 pm
Hecate,
Unfortunately I know the kinds of things your husband has seen. There are things that have been done to children that law enforcement, child protective services, and doctors have seen that can’t even be spoken because they’re just too traumatizing. The people that do these things are truly from the bowels of hell.
My feeling about these two is that they’ve been to these places and that it’s a comfortable place for them.
June 30th, 2007 at 6:08 pm
To be honest I think nothing could make sense to us from here on in, we do NOT have that kind of mind/hormone system or what the hell it is that lot do.
My husband used to work for RM and he spent a year in Customs and Excise, and saw sights that shocked him deeply, grown men all of them vomitting and in tears, loss of appetite, even hardened police officers pale and upset and what they saw.
And these packages that contained these images went to middle class professionals who we trust with our lives, the police officers followed, I must add. But some of ‘humanity’ is beyond belief, not classed as animal please, because they do have standards, but vile and scum humans.
June 30th, 2007 at 4:50 pm
I am guessing but I think the couple that was arrested know more than they are letting on. These are the types of people that work the black market. They know about human trafficking……from extorting to now trying to save themselves, they are not going to talk.
Of course….my guess………..unless a deal gets cut. How do you think 2 problematic people meet in the first place. The lady sells children in illegal adoptions & he has a history of abuse.
Just thinking..about what makes sense at this point.
June 30th, 2007 at 3:37 pm
Worldwide DNA databank for children and inserting a Microchip in children have become a necessity. The problem I fear with microchip is that the people who take children might cut the chip right out of them.
A worldwide DNA databank of people who traffic children, possess child porn and/or commit sex crimes on children is also a necessity.
Life in prison or the death penalty for sex crimes committed on children is also necessary.
June 30th, 2007 at 2:24 pm
I answered you Anorak , but its been mislaid
June 30th, 2007 at 2:17 pm
When it was first available for dogs there was talk that the chip could travel round the body possibly ending in the brain or lungs, this has proved to be kennel legend, its stays put.
Having worked in animal rescue and seen the benefits of the chip and being able to return a long lost pet to its owner and the joy from both parties, its easy to see the gains
It does go somewhat against the grain with humans possibly a hangover from Hitler and his nasty ways of treating humanity as a chattel and not a being. Exactly the same attitude from a paedo towards their hapless victims.
Until paedos are punished properly and at least jailed for life, and not released back to the community to continue their barbaric practices, I think its becoming a necessity now to microship babies.At the very least if they are taken there is a way of tracking their whereabouts, and that has got to be a better option than endless hoax sightings and mistaken sightings.
But perhaps less so called ‘Human Rights’ for the offenders, its very clear they lose those, but ‘Victims rights’ are upheld, perhaps any do gooders might like to brew on that? and justify any pro HR’s reply or risk being shot down in flames

Joanne:
I have only ONE REASON to contact Mr. Bernard Alapetite:
Clause 1) from the Portuguese Journalists Deontological Code:
“(…) Facts must be confirmed (before publication) and all persons with a legitimate interest (in those) facts must be heard”
http://www.jornalistas.online.pt/noticia.asp?id=24&idselect=369&idCanal=369&p=368
As I am preparing a “Special Report” about him, I MUST CONTACT HIM. This is a basic deontological and professional rule!
Regards
Paulo Reis
PS: FYEO (For Your Eyes Only…) Mr. Bernard Alapetite already contacted me, a few minutes ago…
June 30th, 2007 at 11:50 am
Joanne:
No, absolutely not. Give me 15 minutes and I will translate and post here the main links for what Olegário de Sousa said. The only thing Olegario de Sousa said about Toscano, was that his information “was one more line of investigation”, after Toscano was questioned at Portuguese CID headquerter in Portimão.
About the arrests in Spain, Spanish Police got a tip from a lawyer to whom Danilo Chemello and his wife, Aurora Pereira, called, saying they had inofrmation about Madeleine, but they wanted to exchange it for money. The lawyer tipped Police, and they were arrested.
Regards,
Paulo Reis
June 30th, 2007 at 11:24 am
IS it not right though Paulo, that Olegario De Sousa told press that the recent arrests were ‘connected’ to information provided by Antonio Toscano?
Also, what are your reasons for wanting to contact Bernard Alapetite so urgently?
June 30th, 2007 at 11:20 am
Alípio Ribeiro, head of Portuguese CID: Antonio Toscano’s informations “don’t deserve particular credibility” to Police - 30.06.07
“One of the Police jobs is to analyse all the clues. Some are more credible than others and this one (from Antonio Toscano) doesn’t deserve particular credibility” to Portuguese CID, said yesterday Mr. Alípio Ribeiro, national director of Portuguese CID, Polícia Judicária (…)”

I’m thinking about getting my daughter microchipped.
I would also gladly have mine and her DNA information entered into a database.
It should be voluntary to prevent those ridiculous civil liberties people from justifying their existence.
June 30th, 2007 at 10:05 am
Why capital punishment for them? I think they should be used as human guinea pigs and organ donors.
Taking DNA from all newborns is a good idea and so easy and painless as well. It has been broached before , what about microchipping?
June 30th, 2007 at 9:00 am
Ranting again…….
Sandy, I totally agree with the DNA database idea but I say every child born worldwide should have their DNA stored in a database that way at some point in the future everyone will be on record and as soon as a crime is committed and samples are found there’s a match whether it is from simple breaking and entering to murder. That, I think is the way forward. They say it will cost the taxpayer too much money for database storage but I would rather pay my taxes and it go toward this than foot the bill time and time again to keep these cretans alive. I would gladly give a sample of my DNA and my 3 childrens to be put on.
I think I should be given a go as PM, just for a couple of months until I filter through the prisons and rid the world of these evil people. Just a thought.
June 30th, 2007 at 8:46 am
I just hope to God that they have the CIA or FBI working on this behind the scenes. I’m not convinced that the Portugese Police really have the knowledge or experience to be left to deal with a case such as this. This poor little girl has been missing for nearly 2 months and not a peep…………All child abusers in any capacity should be given the electric chair. If it is proven 100% by DNA or Lie detector these people should have THEIR human rights removed for the very last time. We work damn hard and pay taxes like they are going out of fashion to keep these people (after their token slap on the wrist) in a life of relative luxury only to release them for GOOD BEHAVIOUR………Do me a bloody favour………they come out of jail, with their new education (which we pay for) and sometimes their new identity to go on and offend again and again until they are caught. No deterent there because it’s only another couple of years in jail which we, the taxpayers foot the bill for again. I say bring back corporal punishment or better still, stoning and be rid of these vile evil bastards. I certainly don’t want them living near me and my kids. This country is so spineless it’s an absolute joke. Let’s hope Gordy Brown will be a bit more sympathetic to the poor victims and punish these people before the supposed 2000 prisoners are tagged and realeased onto our streets because the prisons are overcrowded. They’re overcrowded because we are soft.
Rant over……..
June 30th, 2007 at 5:54 am
Check the DNA of the 2 children staying with this couple. And try to match it with parents who have had their child go missing. Where is there a missing child DNA database in the EU? Need one.
June 30th, 2007 at 2:18 am
I’m sorry I poste this twice. I meant to post it here.
This is very sick. I wonder what kind of abuse these two were accused of. Now they’re trafficking gametes? What for?

“Madeleine pair ‘trafficked children’
A couple arrested in connection with the kidnapping of Madeleine McCann have been investigated for the international trafficking of children, The Times has learnt.
Danilo Chemello and Aurora Pereira Vaz are expected in court this morning after being seized for attempting to secure the £2.5 million reward for Madeleine’s safe return.
The Times has discovered that the couple were previously investigated by police because of the large number of children passing through their home. Detectives also suspect that they were organising the international sale of gametes, human sperm and eggs.
Mr Chemello, 61, and his Portuguese girlfriend, 54, are believed to have moved to the exclusive Sotogrande resort in southern Spain two months ago, having lived in Italy and France. They were both jailed for 18 months in France in 2004 for abusing their five-year-old daughter.
Detectives attempted to find the pair after they contacted a lawyer in Malaga, on June 8, claiming to know where Madeleine was being held.
Officers have had them under surveillance since last Monday and decided to act on Wednesday night after discovering that Mr Chemello was wanted on an international arrest warrant issued in France.
Police who raided their home on Thursday discovered a large number of newspaper articles about Madeleine and found pictures of the missing girl on a computer.
A girl and boy, aged seven and five, who were in the home have been taken into care.
Ms Pereira Vaz is under investigation in France for allegedly lying about being the biological mother of another girl.
Detectives are attempting to discover if the couple are directly linked to the abduction of Madeleine, or were attempting to claim the reward fraudulently. Police have found no trace of Madeleine, 4, since she was abducted from a holiday apartment in the Algarve resort of Praia da Luz on May 3. It was disclosed yesterday that Mr Chemello and Ms Pereira have already been investigated for human trafficking. Christian Girard, a French state prosecutor, told The Times that witnesses had alerted police in 2004 to “a lot of children passing through their house” on the French Riviera. The home was rented for €30,000 (£24,500) a month.
A source said that detectives were particularly keen to trace a boy who lived with the couple for several months and then disappeared.
An inquiry was held into the alleged traffic in gametes after detectives discovered lists of sex cells on the couple’s computer. The lists mentioned the sex, as well as the racial and religious origin of the cells.
Mr Girard, state prosecutor in Draguignan, southern France, said the couple were suspected of organising international traffic in collaboration with a doctor in Greece and a laboratory in the US. However, no charges were brought because the facts occurred outside French territory, he said.
Portuguese police believe that Madeleine might have been taken to order and taken out of the country within hours of her abduction.
Mr Chemello, an Italian, is wanted in France after being convicted of trying to blackmail a judge who convicted the couple of abusing their daughter. He was sentenced to three years in prison in his absence in February last year.
Dominique Moyal, deputy state prosecutor in Nice, said that Mr Chemello had originally been placed under investigation on suspicion of conspiring to murder the judge.
