More police funding to find Madeline McCann

Jump to newest
 

By (user no longer on site) OP   
over a year ago

Another £154,000 has been given to the police to continue the search for Maddie McCann.

Total so far £11 million.

I’m not sure they will ever find her. I’m also unsure that other cases get equal treatment.

Haven't the police said it is for their final line of enquiries. So it looks like it's coming to a end.

Unfortunately they are not reliable.

I don't agree with the funding. Should be closed now in my opinion, other morw recent cases that should get this funding with a better chance of solving them.

Don't agree with the funding but suspect accountants and not investigating police officers that made the decision realising it's cheaper in the long run than facing a legal challenge.

They won't find her, she already died in 2007, the McCanns have been lying all along. Kate is looking like she could crack soon but I'm not sure there will ever be a confession.

Too many experts, plus the Portuguese police have seen through the whole sham. It just shows how much

For anyone interested, there is so much covering this on YouTube among other places. It can be hard to hear if you're so used to hearing the opposite for more than 10 years. So it can be difficult to have an open mind by this point.

Statement analyist Peter Hyatt, who trains the FBI among others, in detecting deception, went on record as willing to stake his career and the whole science of statement analysis, on his conclusion that the McCanns have been deceptive and have guilty knowledge of what happened to their daughter.

The Madeleine McCann case is a huge issue for me at the moment, I can post so much more but that's enough for one post. x

The Peter Hyatt analysis is the most damning I have come across. He also concluded a strong possibility of sexual abuse amongst other revelations.

Around the world, especially Australia etc the media report the case differently. In the UK we only ever hear the official side and nothing else, at least not seriously.

The McCanns have also spent most of their donations on legal affairs to silence anyone questioning their narrative.

And while the world laments over Madeleine McCann, Alan Bennett, brother of Moors Murderers victim Keith Bennett is funding his own search for his brother. The authorities ran out of funding for the search years ago and not prepared to look unless any significant evidence is uncovered.

He's not even allowed to access Brady's papers, to look for anything if interest even this long after Brady's death.

they have got away with murder literally as there drs any normal family would have been jumped on at least for leaving them alone these 2 murderers haven't faced any form of criminal charges total joke another Dr left her kid alone on a lounger in the sea whilst she went for a swim the kid was swept a mile out kid was ok as the mother conveniently jumped on a jet ski to her no-one batted an eyelid yet normal parents arrested no doubt

Whatever happened to innocent until proved guilty? All you have is speculation and a lot of experts making money by touting their opinions. Personally I don't believe Kate McCann killed Madeleine, either on purpose or by accident. It was the norm on that holiday complex to leave kids in the apartments while parents had dinner, it wasn't only the McCanns who did it. Yes a lot of money has been thrown at the case, that I do not disagree with. But it's not right to continually accuse a person/persons of killing their child and disposing of it, with no hard evidence. It's a bit of a witch hunt really isn't it? X

That's my thoughts, when it happened my eldest two were the same age Maddie and the twins, and I recall thinking how stupid of them to be left alone, and the feeling that she wouldn't be found, sadly I've not been proved wrong.

Something does feel odd about the whole case, with it being such a tragic case you'd expect more compassion despite their wrongdoing.

Thwey weren;t immediately hated. For days this was the lead news story with huge public sympathy and support. They wouldn;t have raised over a million in donations without huge support.

It was some time before the questions and cynicism started, fuelled in part by the McCann;s constant self publicising and the realisation that the donations weren;t to a charity and had merely bankrolled them by paying their mortgage

There is no hate for the McCanns themselves from me. I don't want to demonise them, but I want the truth to get out. One reason being it would show for all to see how unreliable the media really is/can be. This is why I personally have doubts about some issues and am disbelieving of others.

The McCanns having money has nothing to do with it whatsoever. The money they've received isn't an issue for me, I don't care. But they are shady people involved with shady people, just not really normal.

They were holidaying with 3 other couples. The year before, another couple holidayed with the McCanns and the others. After the case came out a year later, they made a statement telling how one of the friends was conversing with Gerry and suddenly said "Would Maddie do this?" while putting his finger in and out of his mouth suggestively and circling his nipple. The couple who witnessed this were like "hang on, did he just do that?" and were pretty shocked that Gerry wasn't fazed and was laughing.

The couple who witnessed this (they were all having dinner I think) found that quite disturbing and from then on wouldn't let the guy and his wife bathe their children anymore. They all bathed each others children regularly. So a year later when the case came out they reported this to the police.

This was never reported in the media as far as I know.

Then there was Jane Tanner's statement to police in which she made sexual jokes and innuendos, such as the men in the group needing their "needs met", inappropriate for a missing child case.

While it doesn't prove anything obviously, and I personally don't believe the group are paedos, it does all suggest a culture between the group of boundaries much loosed than is considered normal.

Then there's the make up photo, released 3 years later by another family member, without the McCann's go ahead, showing Maddie in blue eye shadow, lipstick, necklace and bow in her hair.

This caused a stir and had Kate rushing to excuse it as having raided mummy's box. Kate wanted us to believe a 3 year girl had applied the make up perfectly neatly, tied the bow in her hair and put the necklace on herself. Of course we need to be open to the possibility, on the other hand you can believe she was made up by an adult.

Just seems a bit off for a girl that young, but that's just opinion.

I don't suppose this will be the final push or the last of the funding, pretty sure its all been said before.

I also don't believe it will bring the case any closer to finding her dead or alive.

I'm not convinced that the answer doesn't lie with her parents and their friends but maybe because I don't understand the mentality of leaving small children in strange apartments, alone, miles from home, so I can eat and drink. I've read a lot on it, and nothing much adds up, but then it isn't going too whilst she's still missing or her body remains unfound.

The investigators won't look at it. In the UK investigation, they won't start from scratch and try to find out what happened. Their mandate is to start off with it was an abduction, and investigate it as an abduction.

The Portuguese police started their investigation properly, by starting from scratch trying to find what happened. They didn't start off with a theory/conclusion I.e. it was an abduction.

Criminal profiler Pat Brown has gone on record against the McCanns.

Again I recommend statement analyst Peter Hyatt. Www.Hyatt analysis.com which I find pretty fascinating. He trains the FBI at their academy in Quantico.

There is a YouTube video I recently discovered, pretty much by accident, where Hyatt speaks in depth about the McCanns. I find it quite hard to argue with it.

I trust that more than I trust the official media version.

The only one I can find who was lynch mobbed was Goncalo Amoral of the Portuguese Judiciary, by the McCanns themselves!

Thankfully their legal battle victory to silence him, using everybody's donations which were meant to go towards finding Madeleine, was overturned and he has been free to speak!

The problem is this stuff isn't reported in the media, or if it is, only to be handwaved away, such as Kate's "oh she raided mummy's makeup bag" explanation.

There are a lot of children who go missing every year. It’s a shame this money can’t go into funding towards finding them.

"The problem is this stuff isn't reported in the media, or if it is, only to be handwaved away, such as Kate's "oh she raided mummy's makeup bag" explanation.

This is the main reason most people might struggle to hear a lot of this stuff. It's just not what we're used to hearing!"

There has been lots of negative stuff about them reported in the media. We are used to hearing/reading negative reports about them.

"The investigation into the missing RAF guy has been dropped Could it be that he was perhaps too unconventional in his recreational activities and not a middle class Dr ??"

The last lot of the landfill site search was funded by his parents. There has been nothing but issues into the search for him since day 1.

I read yesterday that at the time Maddie went missing, the mum was interviewed by police and refused to answer all but one of their 40 + questions. Refusing on the grounds that she felt she being treated as a suspect.

Someone said earlier that had this been a working class family, or even a family reliant on welfare then they would have been dragged through the gutter. I can’t agree more with that.

Police admitted yesterday that they may have been searching in the wrong area of the landfill site, and possibly even the wrong landfill site. You just couldn’t make that shit up!!

Would all those people accusing the McCanns like to explain why they have moved heaven and earth to try to find their daughter.

Surely if they were responsible they would keep quiet and let the story fade away. Isn't it bleeding obvious that the more the story stays in the public eye, the more chance there is they would be found out...

Why do they get funding when other parents do not. they almost certainly are responsible for her death or abduction and should be charged with child neglect.

Put all of the conspiracy theories to one side. What is the justification of the funding in this time of major austerity and cuts to emergency service coverage? They are closing A&E departments yet can fund this?

Harsh but funding another search for Ben needham resulted in no significant proof alive or dead.

. It's the old magicians trick!

If your continually looking for an "abducted" child your not really looking for the killer!.

There's no evidence Maddie was abducted, there's no evidence or eyewitness of an abductee, in the absence of evidence you start at the last people to see the child alive, that's just basic police practice yet still it's constantly referred to as an abduction case despite no evidence of such.

Every apparent story of some new eyewitness seeing a suspicious character or a weird guy carrying a small child or some renowned pedophilie living in some part or close to the apartment or similar attempted abduction always leads back to the McCanns so called self appointed pr or private detective agency.

The McCanns have spent millions of charity money and the UK police have spent 12 million and the Portuguese police have spent 7 million and still there's no evidence of any abduction

You really don't think that when a child goes missing the parents aren't investigated? Of course they are.

Anyway that doesn't answer my question. If the McCanns did do it and managed to deflect the police at the time, why on earth would they spend a huge amount of time and money keeping the story in the public eye and badgering the police to keep investigating when it would have otherwise drifted out of public and police consciousness.

If they did it, the more attention they draw to the disappearance the greater likelihood they would eventually be found out.

Can you not see that?

This, given their behaviour since the disappearance, the likelihood they are responsible is vanishingly small.

They have not found a body.

I am neither on their side or against them.

I am just stating fact.

If the final enquiry finds evidence that the parents are guilty then I hope that they rot in hell.

But just imagine their torment should they actually be innocent?

I agree with that they should have been changed with neglected or something leaving the kid's alone as a parent I think it's just unforgivable.

But all these people claiming that they have heard evidence from this source or from YouTube or foreign press.

If you know of evidence that proves guilt then provide it to the police not post it on a swinging website.

If as people are claiming that this is a massive cover-up due to their status then they must have some hugely powerful friends to be able to sway two countries police forces.

I really hope that they find out what happened I really do and little Maddie can finally rest in peace.

That's blatantly untrue, the extra 2 million pounds is being earmarked for chasing leads on possible abducters, the last few million was also used for this purpose, that's chasing abducters that you have no evidence exist or were there or were seen by anyone at all and that you have no forensics that even point to it.

It's mass madness

Whereas if they had kept quiet about it since 2008 the general public would have forgotten about it by now.

But obviously the best way for killers to get away with murder is to keep drawing the polices attention to themselves and saying "you know that child that many people suspect us of murdering, well we didn't, she was abducted".

I really hope that they find out what happened I really do and little Maddie can finally rest in peace."

I agree with you.

There NOT investigating the McCanns and NEVER have, no UK police force have ever investigated the McCanns, the entire UK police operation has always supposed an abduction and worked backwards from there by looking for abducters, despite no evidence she was abducted.

There's some sort of public hysteria going on for sure.

Not one single penny of this money is being used to investigate this case.

It's all being used chasing possible abducters and that despite ANY EVIDENCE she was abducted.

I don't discount the fact that I might just be crazy but then I don't discount the fact your all drinking from the cool aid either

" There's a lot of people stating that the family are lying and covering up. Perhaps you could pass on the factual evidence you have, to the investigators to save money?

The investigators won't look at it. In the UK investigation, they won't start from scratch and try to find out what happened. Their mandate is to start off with it was an abduction, and investigate it as an abduction.

The Portuguese police started their investigation properly, by starting from scratch trying to find what happened. They didn't start off with a theory/conclusion I.e. it was an abduction.

Criminal profiler Pat Brown has gone on record against the McCanns.

Again I recommend statement analyst Peter Hyatt. Www.Hyatt analysis.com which I find pretty fascinating. He trains the FBI at their academy in Quantico.

There is a YouTube video I recently discovered, pretty much by accident, where Hyatt speaks in depth about the McCanns. I find it quite hard to argue with it.

I trust that more than I trust the official media version.

Here on fab we are often told to trust our instincts as they are seldom wrong.

Peter Hyatt certainly puts forward very convincing conclusions, some of which back up the gut instincts that many people have around this case.

People will look for and believe "evidence" that supports their gut instinct it doesn't make it fact. If you search YouTube long enough it's possible to find things that support almost any belief. "

I think that ANY conclusions, whichever way they point, which have been put forward by an expert who trains law enforcement and the fbi, a person who has a 100% record in criminal cases have to be pretty considered pretty reliable don’t you?

"Would all those people accusing the McCanns like to explain why they have moved heaven and earth to try to find their daughter.

Surely if they were responsible they would keep quiet and let the story fade away. Isn't it bleeding obvious that the more the story stays in the public eye, the more chance there is they would be found out... . It's the old magicians trick!

If your continually looking for an "abducted" child your not really looking for the killer!.

There's no evidence Maddie was abducted, there's no evidence or eyewitness of an abductee, in the absence of evidence you start at the last people to see the child alive, that's just basic police practice yet still it's constantly referred to as an abduction case despite no evidence of such.

Every apparent story of some new eyewitness seeing a suspicious character or a weird guy carrying a small child or some renowned pedophilie living in some part or close to the apartment or similar attempted abduction always leads back to the McCanns so called self appointed pr or private detective agency.

The McCanns have spent millions of charity money and the UK police have spent 12 million and the Portuguese police have spent 7 million and still there's no evidence of any abduction

You really don't think that when a child goes missing the parents aren't investigated? Of course they are.

Anyway that doesn't answer my question. If the McCanns did do it and managed to deflect the police at the time, why on earth would they spend a huge amount of time and money keeping the story in the public eye and badgering the police to keep investigating when it would have otherwise drifted out of public and police consciousness.

If they did it, the more attention they draw to the disappearance the greater likelihood they would eventually be found out.

Can you not see that? .

I can see that you didn't read what I wrote.

.

The attention is all about an abduction, always has been, always will be despite NO EVIDENCE OF AN ABDUCTION..

there I underlined my point

So you are saying that the police will not have looked at other possibilities?

It doesn't matter what theories the McCanns put forward, by keeping the case in the public eye and badgering the police , they are increasing the chances that, if they were responsible, they will be found out.

This, given their behaviour since the disappearance, the likelihood they are responsible is vanishingly small.

Besides the differences between an abduction and murder enquiry are going to be negligible.

It's not as though they deduce that because there's no body, they won't bother with forensics or crime scene management?

Everyday thousands of pounds are spent on all sorts of items by the UK and as stated thus is just peanuts.

Some of the vitriolic hate based on pure speculation on this thread is rather disturbing.

The suggestions at how the family are privileged and treated differently are nothing short of reverse snobbery and a rather hateful outlook.

Ultimately none of us are affected by the investigation, so why so angry?.

That's blatantly untrue, the extra 2 million pounds is being earmarked for chasing leads on possible abducters, the last few million was also used for this purpose, that's chasing abducters that you have no evidence exist or were there or were seen by anyone at all and that you have no forensics that even point to it.

It's mass madness

"

It's a natural investigative assumption, that if a parent states their child is not where they left them, to assume they've either left, been taken or been subject to harm.

The investigative process won't have been that different.

Maybe I'm missing your point?

While I'm not judging anyone on this case I do find it strange the amount that is being spent.

I did a quick search to find that 30 kids have gone missing in Portugal in the last 5 years....see link for huff post https://m.huffingtonpost.co.uk/2012/05/04/30-children-have-gone-missing-in-portugal-since-madeleine-mccann-disappeared_n_7378200.html

It just seems a little strange that the ones that make the headlines stay in the headlines.

Diclaimer: I have not read this full thread or full article as busy....no doubt someone will have the time to do so

I dont think they killed her but they were very wrong in leaving her and her younger siblings alone at night while they went out with friends. They must regret that obviously.

Its a very sad situation.
