FabSwingers.com forum: A 21 year old claims to be madeleine mccan.

From the land of haribos.

Are you also following the case? Apparently, a woman named julia wendell, who is 21 years old has claimed that she believes that she might be madeleine mccann, has shared an update into her investigation.

While speaking to her publicist on an instagram live, they revealed that they will have answers about her identity in a matter of weeks.

In a discussion between julia and dr fia johansson shared on instagram stories, fia explained: "We are in the middle of the investigation, when everything gets closer… we will let you guys know.

What do you think about it? They showed a comparison image on the hello magazines web site, it will be interesting to see if it is her, they will do a dna test.

What makes her believe she's Madeleine I wonder. The DNA test will hopefully give answers.

I hope she genuinely believes what she's saying even if she's wrong because it would be very cruel otherwise

Sorry to be cynical but why not take a dna test and be reunited with your family before hiring a publicist and grabbing your 15 minutes of fame.

The eye coloboma isn't the same, it wouldn't close over time, the iris may lighten/change slightly but the coloboma generally remains the same so that to me says no.

I think if I thought I genuinely was the missing daughter of the McCanns I would reach out to them quietly and discreetly and get a DNA test. Then if proven to be Madeleine I would then go public with the news, with them, and celebrate together.

This, however, smacks of a silly, money orientated publicity stunt and a very selfish one at that. I can’t imagine how the whole McCann family feel about this.

Just get a DNA test and be done with it. What some people do for media attention and money is quite sickening.

Jusr watched the first few mins of her and her “medium” on insta , clearly it’s a scam , and a really badly done one, why can’t people instantly see that is beyond belief.

I hope they broke some laws doing this and are prosecuted

Very neat way to gain instant fame. DNA test will quickly prove it but she could still make a lot of money out of it such is the way the media works.

I mean obviously my thought is who is this crazy person and how weird and potentially insensitive.

But a little part of me is like, Jesus Christ could you imagine if she is? Just imagine if the DNAs like yep, that's her. The world would be completely stunned.

Biometric analysis so far points towards no. All speculation though as has been said, until dna results confirm that she is not the father... I mean not MM.

Also while not solid concrete evidence, since could have been lied too. MM would be 19 going on 20, not be 21 now.

If her disappearance was due to sinister reasons, I imagine they could say the memory loss was due to trauma.

Thankfully the country this woman comes from, Poland, isn't a country still in the dark ages. Her medical and birth records are on file and she could get DNA tests, alongside her family, if she truly doubts her origins.

There's certainly no need to clamour for publicity, when the answers are in your home.

Sounds like a dubious motivation

Her mother is the splitting image off her. She put out a statement that Julie has suffered with mental health issues and that she won’t do a dna. They want to do one on her immediate family first to help shield the mcanns a bit.

Yes but her "new parents" or whoever took her could always have lied about that. That alone is not reason enough, though certainly a red flag

She looks nothing like Madeline. I think she’s unwell and needs help. Her upbringing doesn’t seem like it was very good. The only thing that ties her to Madeline is the fact her grandmothers partner is related to or shares the same surname as the man who Is being investigated in the case.

That is correct - contrary to the accounts that there is either a 90% (or 93%) possibility that she is Madeleine. The company who carried out the test said there is a 90% chance that she is NOT Madeleine.
