That is a thought ... I wonder if Madeleine's parents just didn't want to profit from her disappearance ... which had already proved a cash cow for so many.
In my opinion far better to put it into Madeleine's Fund ... at a time when only they were paying to look for her, as no-one else was bothering with an archived case.
So well done them!
But nonetheless ... don't you find it extraordinary that members have managed to get all the information they want from it for their purposes ... so logic dictates it can't be very secret.
What is a though - is the fact they wasted so much money on trying to discredit G A.
That is why M3 were employed not to look for maddie - even though that is what everyone thought .
What was it they implied - we will have maddie home for christmas. and you say the fund not secret.
When were Metodo 3 hired and why was it kept secret for nearly 2 months?Metodo 3 are the team of private investigators hired by the McCanns when they returned to the UK, after the Policia Judiciaria had made them 'arguidos'.
It is reported that the final bill for Metodo 3's work could be anywhere between £300,000 and £750,000 - but what were they doing for nearly two months before the McCanns announced that they had been hired?
And why was the decision to hire them, and release £300,000 of Madeleine's Funds' money, not taken by the board of directors but by Gerry McCann and the family's lawyers and financial backers?
