Express - Maddie: We'll find her alive

Most normal, decent people will be heartened to read that, but no doubt it will set off further ranting, raving and hatred among the Amaral Fan Club.

What the loons should be advised to remember is that this is not for their entertainment. This is about Madeleine.

The rest of decent society know that.

A good few of the forkers seem to have lost what little grip on reality they possessed, I shudder to think what they're going to be like by the time Crimewatch airs next Monday.

In the grand scheme of things, who cares about the forkers? Although it's heartening to note that the police watch internet sites.

Thank you, Pedro, the main story isn't online yet, but your link is interesting:


A dramatic reconstruction showing Madeleine being snatched was filmed with a lookalike.

The TV appeal, which was filmed in Spain to stop local police being angered in Portugal, will also be shown in Germany and Holland.

However, critics on Twitter have slammed the decision not to show the film in Portugal.

Good to know they're watching the internet.

Yes, thanks Pedro.

We read what Jim Gamble had to say about watching the internet.  

you welcome my friends.

Madeleine McCann: We'll find her alive

THE parents of Madeleine McCann say they have been given fresh hope of finding their daughter alive.

Gerry McCann said he and wife Kate are “optimistic” a Crimewatch appeal will lead to a significant breakthrough in the case.

Detectives have revealed they are closer than ever to discovering the fate of Madeleine, who disappeared during a family holiday in Portugal in 2007.

Heart consultant Gerry, 45, said the couple will not accept that Madeleine is dead until they see “clear evidence” that is the case.

Scotland Yard Assistant Commissioner Mark Rowley said he hoped the BBC’s televised appeal next Monday will produce vital witnesses.

Last week police revealed that a British investig­ation had unearthed new evidence and said a vast log of mobile phone traffic could be the key to finding out what happened to Madeleine, who was three when she vanished.

In an interview with ITV, Gerry said the family were encouraged by developments.

He said: “We’ve always had hope. There have been a number of cases over the last few years of children and young women being found after having been taken and held for very long periods of time.

“As parents we won’t accept Madeleine is dead until we see clear evidence that is the case. We are very pleased with the work of the Metropolitan Police.

“We’re confident that the appeals will hopefully lead to new information and bring us a step closer to finding Madeleine and those responsible for taking her.”

Gerry added that they were encouraged by new evidence and hoped the TV appeals would offer more leads.

“What Kate and I feel, without talking about any details which are very much in the hands of the Metropolitan Police, is that we are optimistic that new pieces will be uncovered that will fill in parts of the jigsaw,” he said.



“We’ve always tried to look forwards and not backwards. We want everything that can be done to be done in the search for Madeleine and I think we’re moving in the right direction.”

It is thought Gerry and Kate, also 45, will appeal directly to a kidnapper during the Crimewatch programme which will feature a reconstruction of events in Praia da Luz on May 3 2007.

Scotland Yard detectives have interviewed 442 people and hope to track down as many in the resort at the time as possible.

Assistant Commissioner Rowley said: “We are focused on the appeal on Crimewatch next week which we hope will produce new witnesses. It remains vital for the success of the appeal that the public are focused on new facts released by the investigative team rather than speculation.”

Detective Chief Inspector Andy Redwood, who is leading the inquiry, said detectives have built up the “most complete picture to date” of events surrounding Madeleine’s disappearance.

They have identified 41 people of interest, including 15 Britons.

The vast log of mobile phone traffic includes calls from people who live in 31 countries. Police say 99.9 per cent will be innocent residents, tourists or workers. But the log could lead to new witnesses or unearth an abductor.

Most of the foreign nationals in the resort were from the UK, Ireland, Holland and Germany.

New appeals are to be made in Holland and Germany but there are no plans for one in Portugal.

Gerry said: “I am sure there will be extensive coverage there and there is very good liaison between the Met Police and the judicial police in Portugal.”

Portugal is backing Scotland Yard’s inquiry and detectives from both countries, including six in Faro, will work on new leads.

The McCanns, from Rothley, Leics, are suing former police chief Goncalo Amaral for libel. The hearing in Lisbon is due to resume today.

The McCann-haters are naturally parrotting cliches involving dogs, merrily ignoring the fact that, according to a 'cadaver dog', one of the women rescued in Ohio 'died' years ago.

While motives such as the unmourned Castro are unlikely to have been involved in Madeleine's abduction, that was the last nail in the coffin for the junk science which is wonderwoof-worship.
