The McCanns made it our business when they appealed to the public to help them.
If they'd said nothing, then no one would be in the least interested in the outcome
How much do you actually know about this case which you insist on pontificating sheer dribble about?
Amaral started the ball rolling on publicity in one of his few positive actions in Madeleine's case.
Even he wasn't stupid enough to think publicity was inappropriate.

As it is of clear interest to the investigation of the case in reference, I have the honour to ask you to authorise the divulgation of the disappearance of the young girl Madeleine McCann by means of the organs of the press, with the aim of obtaining information leading to her whereabouts.
I enclose a model for divulgation.
With best compliments
The Coordinator of the Investigation.
