Madeleine McCann ‘Befriends’ A Paedo
MADELEINE McCann: BEFRIEND a paedophile. And not just a paedo but other sex offenders. The BBC’s Bob Howard wonder if “’befriending’ them be the best way to stop them committing more crimes?” Well, yes. If you give them what they want.
In a trail for the Donal MacIntyre shop BBC Radio 5 live on Sunday 11 April at 1930, the BBC meets Sarah, who “regularly meets a man convicted of serious sex offences against children”. He nows live in the “community”. Not the paedo community, but a more general community called London.
Sarah says she was partly inspired to volunteer by the press coverage surrounding the disappearance of Madeleine McCann.
You know, the child you inspired MacIntyre to journey to Praia a Luz and solve the case for the media.

Madeleine McCann: The Press Complaints Committee Forgets Robert Murat
MADELEINE McCann – Anorak’s at-a-glance guide to press coverage of Madeleine McCann: THE Press Complaints Commission was criticised by the Commons culture, media and sport select committee. It responds – and there is no mention made for Robert Murat, a man almost destroyed by the press:
“It would not have been possible, contrary to the select committee’s assertions, for the commission to have come to an independent view in May 2007 on questions of accuracy or impropriety in the reporting of the McCann case.

Sandra Bullock’s Tiger Woods Cub Story Went Missing
SANDRA Bullock’s Tiger Woods’ cub went missing. Or is missing?
“Q. I have noticed the use of “went missing” in newspapers recently. “The money went missing,” “he or she went missing,” etc. When did “went” get interjected into sentences? What is wrong with “the money is (or was) missing” or “he or she is (or was) missing? I think “went missing” sounds stupid.
— Stephen Krause, of Collinsville
A. You’re not alone. On her blog, the Grammar Girl received so many complaints from her literate followers that she called it her pet peeve of 2008. In 2005, noted wordsmith James J. Kilpatrick wrote in the Chicago Sun-Times, “‘Went missing’ should go missing.”

Madeleine McCann Is Now A Google App.
MADELEINE McCann – Anorak’s at-a-glance guide to press coverage of Madeleine McCann: Our Maddie is now a Google App. KamAlert 1.01 is the alert system that turns every room into a police state:
Released by Informatica Kamalert SL, the abduction in 2007 of Madeleine McCann in Portugal was the inspiration behind the creation of this app.
Good to know that a repeat of whatever happened to Madeleine McCann can be prevented by an app. So long as your phone is on and aimed at the intruder, what can go wrong?

Milly Dowler, Levi Bellfield And The Link To Madeleine McCann
MADELEINE McCann – Anorak’s at-a-glance guide to press coverage of Madeleine McCann: MILLY Dowler, nee Amanda Dowler, went missing on March 21, 2002 in Walton-upon-Thames. On 18 September 2002, Milly Dowler’s remains were found by mushroom pickers on Yateley Heath in Hampshire.
Levi Bellfield will face trial over Milly’s murder. But what’s this. In the midst of a story on Milly Dowler, Madeleine McCann’s name appears. Crime reporter Richard Edwards tells Telegraph readers:
Officers initially treated it as a missing persons inquiry rather than a possible abduction – a dilemma highlighted again years later by the slow Portuguese response to the disappearance of Madeleine McCann, which was also assumed to be innocent at first.
Er, no it wasn’t From the off the disappearance of Madeleine McCann was a voracious media feeding frenzy, which attacked the parents first and then went for Robert Murat and pretty much anyone else it painted a bity iffy.
Madeleine McCann disappeared on the evening of Thursday, 3 May 2007. On the morning of the 4th, the Daily Mail wrote:
The disappearance of three-year-old Madeleine McCann has echoes of the tragic case of Ben Needham, who went missing in Greece in 1991.
Portuguese police have identified a suspect over the kidnapping of British toddler Madeleine McCann, who was snatched from a holiday appartment on Thursday night.
Milly Dowling may soon rest in peace. Madeleine McCann remains the media’s benchmark for missing children, Madeleine McCann is missing…

Madeleine McCann: ‘Shannon Matthews’ Cops’ Join The New Hunt
MADELEINE McCann – Anorak’s at-a-glance guide to press coverage of Madeleine McCann – The Daily Star reports that the West Yorkshire Police Homicide and Major Enquiries Team (HEMET) aka HELMET, will investigate the disappearance of Madeleine McCann.
You might have heard of them before. As the Star notes, these are the “Shannon cops”. This is the police team who found Shannon Matthews.
Madeleine McCann, Shannon Matthews And Missing Child Protocol
Only, it wasn’t them that found Shannon Matthews. The 300 local police looking for the missing child found Shannon Matthews because a neighbour Michael Donovan aka Paul Drake, heard child footsteps in his flat in Lidgate Gardens and knew he had no children.
The Express told us:
Detectives had all but given up hope of finding Shannon Matthews alive when she was discovered in what they thought was a routine door-to-door inquiry.
And then there wer the tip offs.

Madeleine McCann TV: Guest Starring JonBenet Ramsey, Natalee Holloway And The Zodiac Killer
MADELEINE McCann – Anorak’s at-a-glance guide to press coverage of Madeleine McCann -More news on how Madeleine McCann is being used for our entertainment as reader Bat E Bird points us in the direction of Carla Baron – “internationally known psychic/ medium, and psychic profiler”.
Want to know why she is really internationally famous?
Baron was catapulted into the limelight as a psychic profiler on the successful TruTV (formally Court TV) reality series, “Haunting Evidence,” where she assisted police departments in identifying perpetrators of unsolved crimes, homicides, and abductions.
She’s clearyg successful at what she does. Any luck in cracking those cases, Carla?
Several of the cases that have been profiled on the show include some of the nation’s more notorious murders such as JonBenet Ramsey, Natalee Holloway, Madeleine McCann, and the Zodiac Killer.
She might have solved other cases. But anyone wants to guess what those four cases of missing person have in common?

Madeleine McCann: Emotional Exhibit Kate McCann’s Prayers For Mother’s Day
IT’S Mothers’ Day, a mawkish time of year made no less so by the news that “Kate McCann prays for the people who took her daughter Madeleine”.
Only a nutcase cannot feel sympathy for innocent Kate McCann. But the media-fed care is superficial. We pretend to empathise. We just stare and gossip. It’s entertainment. And we can form our views about Kate McCann. Do you like her? Does she irritate you? Do you dislike her? And you can have an opinion because the McCanns have invited us in. She is an emotional exhibit.
Do you link Mothers’ Day, a thing created by companies to flog stuff in between seasons of giving, with the creation of Brand McCann, with their advisors, wristbands, slogans, PR man and ear to power?

Madeleine McCann: The Fun Run And A Missing Manic Street Preacher In Pictures
MADELEINE McCann – Anorak’s at-a-glance guide to press coverage of Madeleine McCann – KATE and Gerry McCann are now bona fide celebrities.
We attended a photocall to see them launch ‘Miles For Missing People‘, a new charity 10k run in Hyde Park, London. The parents of Madeleine McCann joined 450 runners including other families whose loved ones vanished.
The McCanns wore matching white T-shirts bearing a picture of their daughter and the words “Don’t give up on me“.
Said Mrs McCann earlier:
“Gerry and I know the pain that having Madeleine missing has caused us, but sadly we are not alone. There are thousands of families across the UK waiting for news.”

Madeleine McCann: Mothers’ Day With Kate McCann And No News
MADELEINE McCann – Anorak’s at-a-glance guide to press coverage of Madeleine McCann – WITH the media’s Our Maddie now firmly back in the news, can the story be kept going by inviting us to gawp at the parents?
Kate McCann is going to be the star turn on Aled Jones’s BBC Radio 2 Mothering Day special.
The Sun: “Kate’s comfort in Maddie bedroom”
KATE McCann has revealed she seeks strength by visiting missing daughter Madeleine’s bedroom twice a day.
Good that she gets comfort. But why do we need to know this? Why only twice?
During a visit to Lisbon yesterday with husband Gerry to meet their Portuguese lawyer, she said: “We haven’t changed anything. There’s still a lot of pink. I continue to go to Madeleine’s room twice a day. It’s a comforting feeling.”
It’s grim, emotive, repetitive personal stuff made public. It’s voyeurism. We are being invited to stare at the parents. Are you getting off on it. Do you feel? Why is it news?

Madeleine McCann Is An Election Issue As The Home Office Wades In
MADELEINE McCann – Anorak’s at-a-glance guide to press coverage of Madeleine McCann – Our Maddie is an election issue, the McCanns appeal for calm, the Portuguese police get blamed, and Maria Alice dos Santos Silveira, Jorge Vitorino Cabral Martins And Yvone Albino remain “suspects“.
The Telegraph reports that the media’s Our Maddie’s mum and dad met Home Secretary Alan Johnson and then David Cameron. Cameron Conservatives of compassion hire Clarence Mitchell to be the Tories media watcher. Then Johnson’s Home Office launches a “secret review” into Madeleine McCann’s disappearance.
Madeleine McCann Captured By Madeira Liberation Army
Our Maddie is an election issue. An innocent child is missing.
MPs Yellow Ribbons And Creepy Behaviour For Madeleine McCann
The source said: “The latest we have heard from the Home Office is officials are undertaking a ‘scoping exercise’ to look into the possibility of a review of the case.
They are looking at all the options. It is basically a feasibility study. Kate and Gerry met with Alan Johnson to request a review is done. Hopefully any political intervention can unlock obstructions that might be in the way.”

Madeleine McCann: Blonde Children Invited To Join ‘I Am Not Maddie’ Campaign
MADELEINE MCCANN: Blonde children, and also children with black hair that looks like a wig, are to be encouraged to wear “I am not Maddie” badges in a bid to help locate the missing child.
We are indebted to Anorak reader and branding guru Percy for brainstorming this idea – in light of the Conservative’s adoption of the media’s Our Maddie and her PR Clarence Mitchell as the party’s media watcher. He suggests it is time to
…introduce an “I am Not Maddie” i.d. card for all blonde girls WorldWide?…..sounds silly I know…but it could help clear up any confusion.
In light of developments in these countries –
Canada, Italy, Sweden, Portugal, Spain, Morocco, Majorca, Belgium, Bosnia, France, Australia, Brazil, Wales, Malta, Italy, Germany, Austria and Dorset
– and more recently New Zealand (by boat), it might be useful. The added bonus is that the press could each day fill any gaps in the news with shots of blondes.

Madeleine McCann Captured By Madeira Liberation Army
MADELEINE McCann – Anorak’s at-a-glance guide to press coverage of Madeleine McCann – Having yesterday told us that all avenues need to be checked and of those “reams of promising leads“, the Daily Star now tells us that a lot of those leads are dead ends, non starters and plain useless.
As we were told:
IT’S clearer by the day that the Madeleine McCann investigation was a massive botch job. Portuguese police failed to follow up reams of promising leads. Witnesses across the globe were so convinced they’d seen the missing tot that they reported their sightings.
Adding:
But no-one in charge of the case has ever seriously probed their concerns.
And:
Surely you can only solve a case by exhausting all avenues. This has not been done.
Leading to:
Those in charge of the police investigation should hang their heads in shame. They have failed Maddie.
Now, the Daily Star tells its readers all about that new Madeleine McCann case files:
The case files reveal how police have been blitzed with bizarre, sick, and twisted information about Madeleine’s fate from across the globe.

Daily Star (front page): “MADDIE IS SEEN ALIVE ON THE TELLY”
This is “shock new evidence”.
Has Our Maddie got a TV show in some remote corner of the world, like Dunedin?
VIEWERS wept when footage of a girl who looks just like Madeleine McCann singing in a school choir flashed up during a TV news bulletin.
You’d cry too. At least they weren’t playing the recorder.
Canadian broadcasters were stunned when distressed callers phoned in claiming they had accidentally filmed the youngster the world had been searching for.
What – Our Maddie hade made from Portugal to Canada and was now giving full throat to Silent night on the telly? So far, Madeleine has also been seen in: New Zealand, Italy, Sweden, Portugal, Spain, Morocco, Majorca, Belgium, Bosnia, France, Australia, Brazil, Wales, Malta, Italy and Dorset.
Our Maddie was “one of thousands of schoolkids taking part in Canada’s nationwide synchronised singathon. Immediately after the event was broadcast a woman from Toronto, convinced it was Maddie, phoned in “very upset and crying’’.

Madeleine McCann: Introducing ‘Suspects’ Maria Alice dos Santos Silveira, Jorge Vitorino Cabral Martins And Yvone Albino
MADELEINE McCann – Anorak’s at-a-glance guide to press coverage of Madeleine McCann – The Our Maddie news is coming thick and thicker. The Sun introdudes “suspects” Maria Alice dos Santos Silveira, Jorge Vitorino Cabral Martins and Yvone Albino.
The Sun has a picture of a dolly and asks:
THIS little girl’s rag doll could have been given to Madeleine McCann by those who snatched her, investigators believe.
Could. Believe. Now we’re getting somewhere… This is the doll that the “gypsy” had when she was out with “Maddie” – the gypsy cleaner with the school teacher who lives in an orange grove…
The cuddly plaything was among evidence suggesting Maddie was held at a remote house – but Portuguese cops abandoned the line of inquiry. Private detectives hired by the missing tot’s parents Kate and Gerry found the white bungalow in an orange orchard outside Silves, Portugal, after trailing a woman seen earlier with a Maddie lookalike.

Madeleine McCann: The Fat Kiwi’s Innocent But Gypsies Spotted With Our Maddie
MADELEINE McCann – Anorak’s at-a-glance guide to press coverage of Madeleine McCann – HAVING exploded back on the front pages with a “secret file” and a 2008 sighting in New Zealand, we can now reveal that the girl spotted with the fat gypsy paedo in an Dunedin shop is NOT Madeleine McCann.
Shop assistant Taryn Dryfhout – you will recall her being identified by British papers a “security guard”; today the Mirror has demoted to “a checkout girl” – “told reporters that she raised the alarm when she saw the girl with a man in a white shirt and shorts walking out of The Warehouse variety store in the South Island city of Dunedin on December 5, 2007”.
She stared at the man and the child.
She said she was so convinced the girl was Madeleine that she asked her name. The girl stumbled nervously and eventually replied, “Hayley,” Dryfhout said.
Or “Hailey“, as the Star told us. And let us review the scene: a stranger has approached your child and asked her name. Do you report them to the cops? And note that this is at the height of the Our Maddie story…
The man and a woman with them acted strangely so police were notified, she said.

The Star (front page): “Maddie: Pics the cops kept secret”
MADELEINE McCann could be 12,000 miles away in New Zealand, it was revealed last night.
She got there on a boat?
A security guard at the store in Dunedin on New Zealand’s South Island was convinced the child was Madeleine. She asked the girl her name and she replied in a British accent: “Hailey.” Then she was led away by a portly man in shorts who grabbed her hand.
In. New. Zealand. Aisling Symes?

Madeleine McCann: David Cameron Investigates And Clarence Mitchell MP
MADDIE WATCH – Anorak’s at-a-glance guide to press coverage of Madeleine McCann David Cameron investigates, Clarence Mitchell Tory MP and Amaral’s tabloid tales…
Daily Express: “MCCANNS BEG CAMERON TO HELP THEM FIND MADELEINE”
Well, Gordon Brown failed. Dave… Can you help?
KATE and Gerry McCann have asked David Cameron to help find their daughter Madeleine after a private emotional meeting with the Tory leader.
Does Dave have form? He’s a busy caseload right now, what with looking for Tory policies and cycle route from No.10 to Westminster.
James Murray reports:
KATE and Gerry McCann have asked David Cameron to help find their daughter Madeleine after a private emotional meeting with the Tory leader. They spent half an hour at his Westminster office explaining their frustration and disappointment with the investigations.
Gordon Brown was Colombo. David Cameron is Inspector Lynley. It turns out that David Cameron might not be required to pound the beat.
If Mr Cameron wins the election – expected on May 6 – the McCanns hope he would give the case a new priority and order a review of all the evidence.
And then this:
Andy Coulson, the Tory director of communications, and Clarence Mitchell, the McCanns’ spokesman who hopes to stand as a Conservative in the forthcoming election, were also present.
What facts to we have so far?
Last week it was disclosed that Kate and Gerry, 41-year-old doctors from Rothley, Leics, have had a private meeting with Home Secretary Alan Johnson to request a review of the evidence.
Doctors. 41. Now we’re getting somewhere…
After the mawkish display of yellow ribbons in the chamber – do Our Boys in Iraq have ribbons? – can the politicians deny the McCanns whop have lost their daughter, been libelled and wronged yet again? Says the Mirror:
Kate and Gerry McCann accuse British Government of hampering search for Madeleine
Kate and Gerry McCann yesterday accused the British Government of hampering the search for their missing daughter. They claim Portuguese cops have leads to Madeleine’s disappearance but they have been unable to access them.
The couple say despite meetings with Gordon Brown and top UK officials, the three-year investigation has stalled.
Time to vote in a new PM – Prime Maddie…
News of The World: “Right to ban Madeleine McCann lies – PORTUGUESE JUDGE GETS IT SPOT ON WITH BOOK BAN”
The News of The World, which libelled Robert Murat, knows:
GOOD on the Portuguese judge who refused to lift the injunction banning the vile book on missing Madeleine McCann, written by ex-cop Goncalo Amaral.
Yes, we must defend freedom of speech.
But Amaral’s book, which claims Maddie is dead and the McCanns faked her abduction, wasn’t about freedom of speech. It was about making money out of the misery of a devastated couple.
It was based on no facts, forensic or otherwise. And more than anything, it was damaging to the search for Maddie, who we all hope may still be out there.
Amaral’s book is tabloid fiction. It’s the story of Madeleine McCann, as told by the British media…

Mr McCann says:
“You would hope that the parents of a missing child shouldn’t have to be here begging for such assistance and that the authorities would actually do everything in their power in the first place…
“There are certainly instances where information which we think is very credible and worthy of further investigation has not been actioned…
