Why are some people so obsessed in supporting the Mccanns ?

She did.
And not to harm her.

What abductor Erngath ?

Remember we have been asked by mods, not to post opinion as fact.

An abductor, is not a fact.

[Montclair]

She did.
And not to harm her.

It was a statement prepared by the police and that was the only time she ever addressed the "abductor". I remember her saying "Devolve a nossa menina". Otherwise, there have never been any spontaneous appeals to return Madeleine or to address her directly to tell her that her parents loved her and were looking for her.

There is no doubt that Madeleine will know, when she is found, as I believe she will be.

From the PJ

To: The Assistant Prosecutor

Date: 04-05-2007

Subject: Request for Divulgation by means of the Press

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.

There is no requirement for Madeleine McCann's parents to raise awareness or do the work of the police.

The present investigators of the Policia Judiciaria and Scotland Yard have been working Madeleine's case diligently.  Her parents are being kept in the loop ...
I don't know what part of the statements by the investigation and Madeleine's parents that there will be no running commentary you do not understand ... but the world has moved on from 2007.  You might find it refreshing to join in.

You are correct, there is no technical requirement for Madeleine's parents to raise awareness.....oh apart from the fact they are her parents and, you would think, even after so many years would want to keep Madeleine's disappearance in the public's mind.

Further awareness raising campaigns, such as we have seen with the Needham and Corrie McKeague cases, have run alongside the police investigation. It is not an either or situation as you seem to be suggesting.

It is interesting though that instead of denying that there has been a lack of awareness raising on Madeleine's behalf you are attempting to explain it. Now that is interesting.

Are you saying that the disappearance of Madeleine isn't in the public eye?

[faithlilly]

Are you saying that the disappearance of Madeleine isn't in the public eye?

Not at all. I'm saying there has been no active awareness raising of her disappearance by her parents in a very long time.

[stephen25000]

There is no doubt that Madeleine will know, when she is found, as I believe she will be.

Found where ?

[Eleanor]

Found where ?

How would I know that?

[Brietta]

Well well well!. Checking out he date on the above missive it seems Sr Amaral was not dragging the chain afterall. Your cite here would appear to have torpedoed some of your own arguments elsewhere wrt that paticular gentleman and his employers.

LOL ... might it have been a cc?

What does seem to have been blown out of the water is the FORA MYTH directed at Madeleine's parents about publicity.

Has anyone ever actually seen a directive from the time that the police instructed them not to publicise her disappearance?
I haven't ... bet no-one else has either.  Another myth bites the dust?

It seems whoever made the original request was well aware of the protocols to be observed in missing child cases ... as was the magistrate who relaxed the secrecy law and allowed the publication of the information by the Policia Judiciaria.

December 22nd 2007
Mr and Mrs McCann send a public message to their daughter, telling her: "Our only Christmas wish is for you to be back with us again."

December the 22nd 2007. Was that the last time?

Assuming what you say is true, how do you account for this, seeing as for the first few years after her disappearance people like you would mock all the McCanns active awareness raising efforts, accusing them of being shameless self-publicists who were never off the telly or in the papers?

Also, are you not also of the opinion that all the tabloid stories about Madeleine in recent years (of which there have been hundreds) have their origins in Team McCann - well you can't have it both ways.  Either there has been no attempt by the McCanns to raise awareness and they are not behind the tab stories or they have been strenuous in their attempts to harness the power of the media to raise awareness.  Which is it?

I can't account for their lack of awareness raising in recent years. All very strange.

As to the tabloid stories they haven't been about Madeleine per se but almost exclusively about pushing theories that detract from their own culpability.

I thought the statement was suggested, prepared and arranged by Alex Woolfall and Andy Bowes? Certainly it was Bowes who suggested including the Portuguese phrase, according to Kate's book. The appeal was delivered via the BBC for them to share it with other media outlets afterwards. Unfortunately, for various reasons, it was a very wooden emotionless appeal.

Isn't it always as far as your biased view of the mcCanns is concerned?  I do note your efforts in managing to see something odd or strange in everything the McCanns do and don't do, you must be worn out constantly thinking about them and dreaming up new angles to attack them from.
