You're spreading a myth, Benice, actually you go on spreading a urban legend, you are incapable to back with a serious source. How do you hope to find Madeleine with such a lack of rigour ?
No I am not Anne, if you need to find a mythmaker - I think you should look nearer to home.
Quotes from Kate's book. - regarding information FROM THE FILES.
In the meantime I set to work on the files................................................I spent hours scanning through......................................... Then I began on the few sections that were in English, primarily statements from British witnesses of information forwarded to the PJ BY THE LEICESTESHIRE POLICE...
One of the most concerning and upsetting pieces of information to emerge quite early was the record of sexual crimes against children in the Algarve........... I READ of five cases of British children on holiday being sexually abused in their beds while their parents slept in another room In three further incidents children encountered an intruder in their bedrooms who was presumably disturbed before he had the chance to carry out an assault.
I guess these were the reports Bill Henderson, the British consul at the time of Madeleins abducton had told me about.
These incidents had occurred within an hour's drive of Pdl over the three years prior to Madeleine's disappearance . The PJ had never mentioned any of them to us. In fact I gathered FROM THE FILES some of them hadn't even been recorded by the authorities at the time they were reported (evidently they were not considered to be actual crimes) So they might never have been brought to light if the parents of these children hadn't been brave enough to come forward to the British Police after Madelieine was taken and relive their nightmares. They did so in the belief that there could be a link between what had happened to their children and what happened to her. It broke my heart to READ the terrible accounts of these devastated parents.........................................................

If you think the above is all a figment of Kate's imagination, then you will have to explain why her legal team would allow her to write all that in her book. Because if it wasn't true the British Consul, the PJ and the Leicestershire police would have her bang to rights for libel.
There is also a long section on what The British Consul told Kate about the monthly meetings with tour operators where crime - including the above incidents were discussed. I suspect that if that was also a pack of lies, the British Consul would have had plenty to say about it - as if none of it is true then it contains grossly libellous statements about the tour operators which are directly attributed to him in her book.
