The Madeleine Fund beginnings.

[xtina]

The Fund also met the legal fees involved in the setting up of the private limited company but the Fund’s directors ruled that they could not use it to pay the legal team defending them against Portuguese allegations that they were involved in Madeleine’s disappearance. That has been met by a separate fund, using donations from wealthy benefactors including Sir Richard Branson.

IMO the fund money was to look for maddie ....

who was looking for her when the case was shelved....

Was the mccs .........or were they too busy going after GA....

Brian Kennedy wasn't likely to be referring to the costs of setting up the company when he said 'mainly legal expenditure', so what else was he anticipating?

Who was looking for her when the case was shelved?    The McCann's were.   Using the Find Madeleine fund to take telephone calls for anyone seeing a sighting of her.   Then they employed private investigators.


I don't think money from the Find Madeleine fund was taken to pay for legal fees against Amaral.   Richard Branson for one put a lot of money in the fighting fund for such legal costs.   IMO

Madeleine's Fund paid for Duarte's work against Amaral.

A fund set up to help find Madeleine McCann could be wiped out if her parents lose a court case which is due to start in the next few weeks. 
Kate and Gerry McCann are returning to court to fight against the ex-detective who claimed they were responsible for Madeleine's death.

If they lose the case Madeleine's parents will be forced to pay Goncalo Amaral £750,000, after he made a bid to sue them for compensation.


However it could be completely wiped out if the decision stands to award Amaral £430,000 as well as paying costs on top.

Is it me,  I can't find a page 5.

That isn't paying Amaral anyway,  that's helping the McCann's.

G-Unit didn't say the money was for paying Goncalo Amaral Lace, she said this:

Madeleine's Fund paid for Duarte's work against Amaral.

Which it did.

I know what G-unit said,  and I replied that is not using the fund to pay Amaral it was to pay Duarte the McCann's lawyer and so helping the McCann's.   I can't get a link from what you posted.

Try again Lace. I have just had another try and it worked for me. It is a link to the fund accounts with the relevant statement on the bottom of page 5.
