Brenda Leyland. Coroner's Court reconvenes on 20 March 2015.

I guess this article, quoting Andy Redwood, will be removed, then:

Police say one reading of Madeleine McCann's disappearance in Portugal in 2007 is that it has "all the hallmarks of a pre-planned abduction".

[Carana]

It is not known what happened to Maddie or whether the original police investigation was flawed or spot on hence speculative posts will be removed.  I for one sincerely hope that those anonymous individual's who abused Brenda Leyland online AFTER her identity was revealed by Martin Brunt are themselves unmasked publicly and appropriate action taken against them.

Martin Brunt didn't reveal her identity, AFAIK. Brenda had revealed it herself, although she seemingly later chose to try to conceal it.

Brunt gave her an opportunity to publicly air her views, and her accusations by insinuation, and justify them. For some reason, she didn't seem comfortable with that.

For the moment, no one knows what led to her death, nor even what caused it.

It was the Daily Mail newspaper who revealed her identity.

It was the Daily Mail newspaper who revealed her identity.

In the press, yes, that would seem to be the case. Brunt didn't.

She had, however, revealed her identity anyway on the Internet.

Is Carana your real name ?

If not, why not ?

If you are happy to stand behind your opinions why aren't you using your real name ?

AFAIAC...You would have to be quite stupid to reveal your real name online

Precisely.

So how do you think Brenda Leyland felt when hers was revealed ?

Could it be perhaps Brenda was afraid for her safety and not her reputation ?

AWAIAA that is untrue.

From her tweets when several supporters tried to out her she went to great lengths to throw them off the scent.

the difference is that I would not be ashamed of any of my posts...Brenda's posts were something to be ashamed of

[faithlilly]

Of course not.

Then again I'm not arguing that to have validate your opinion you need to reveal your true identity.

Poor lamb.

Vile trolls of the McCann must be left to troll in peace (and anonymity) ...

Yes, as must all trolls and abusers - it's their yuman right to be disgusting and abusive anonymously you know...oh, wait a minute....

Not to Brenda and I share many of her opinions and am also unrepentant.

Brenda had nothing to be ashamed of, certainly not her tweets. I cannot help but get the impression that you McCann supporters feel that she deserved her fate because she did not believe the parents.
