sorry, i'm not buying it.

McCann detective 'certain' Madeleine is alive


Last Updated: 4:50pm GMT 18/11/2007


The Spanish private detective hired to find Madeleine McCann said he is "100-per-cent certain" that the missing toddler is alive and that he is "very, very close" to finding her abductor.

The confident assertion comes as Francisco Marco's detective agency investigates claims a witness spotted Madeleine in central Portugal two days after she went missing.


Mr Marco, who was hired to find the missing four-year-old in September, made the comments in an interview with the US television network CBS.

Gerry and Kate McCann have been informed of the reported May 5 sighting of their daughter in a car with a woman.

Speaking about the CBS interview, Clarence Mitchell, the McCanns' spokesman, said: "He's very confident. He's 100 per cent certain that she's alive and believes that they are 'very, very close' to finding the kidnapper.

I'm with you, LC.  Anyone who seriously believes an "investigator" hired by the McCanns is probably also a member of the Flat Earth Society.

Would you leave your 4 year old daughter alone in a room like this while you went out to eat tapas and drink wine ?

My daughter is 6 and I would never comtemplate leaving her on her own anywhere at anytime.

Regardless of whether you think the parents had anything to do with her disapperance, why have they not been charged with child neglect for leaving such young children unsupervised ?

What the hell is going on ?

Ninja I agree with you totally, just blows my mind. I can say that if they were in the States they would have been charged without a doubt. :verymad:

McCanns' private detectives: 'We know who took Madeleine - and she'll be home by Christmas'
Last updated at 11:32am on 13th December 2007

 


Francisco Marco, head of the McCanns' detective agency Metodo 3

The private investigator hired by Kate and Gerry McCann to find their daughter said today he knows who took Madeleine and is close to reuniting her with her parents.


Francisco Marco said the missing four-year-old has been kidnapped by a paedophile ring and is being held in north Africa or the Iberian Peninsula.
In his boldest claim yet, the director general of Metodo 3 also said he hoped the McCanns will have their daughter back by Christmas.
He said: "We know who kidnapped her. We believe she is in an area not very far from the Iberian peninsula and north Africa. And we have a fairly certain idea of who she is with.

"I cannot say who she is with because we are putting together conclusive proof we can present to the authorities so they can proceed with their arrests."
Insisting he believed Madeleine was still alive, Mr Marco added: "God willing, I hope she'll be back with her parents before Christmas."

The Barcelona-based Metodo 3 has been working for the McCanns since September and Mr Marco has already travelled to Morocco to follow up a reported sighting of a blonde girl with the same distinctive marking as Madeleine in her right eye.
However it is not the first time the agency has made extremely optimistic, occasionally reckless, claims about the case's progress.




Read more...
Last month Francisco Marco again told a BBC Panorama team that the agency was "100 per cent sure Maddie is alive."
He added: "We're sure she was abducted and we are very, very close to finding those responsible."
The claim caused an embarrassed Clarence Mitchell, the McCann's official spokesman, to brief the media that the private detective had simply got "carried away".
The agency claims to have around 35 investigators working on the case and is being paid £50,000 a month by the Find Madeleine Fund.
Mr Marco also promised last month that he would find Madeleine, who disappeared on 3 May from a holiday apartment in Praia da Luz in the Algarve in Portugal, before Metodo 3's six-month contract runs out next March.


Mr Marco said: "I have always said publicly Madeleine is alive. I have to believe it 100 per cent because I know how to look for living people, not dead ones. But I have no proof Madeleine is alive.
"We have proof of her movements after her kidnap and we know she was alive the day after her disappearance. We are not certain she left Portugal.
"I talk of certainties because we know which group may have her or could have kidnapped her to then sell her on to others."



He continued: "One of the things that makes us believe Madeleine is alive is
that every day she's worth more to them. It's obviously not a kidnap carried out by professionals for economic reasons.
"A professional kidnapper would have done something with Madeleine by now. He would have given her back or left her."
Metodo 3 has been criticised by Portuguese police as "small fry" and "irrelevant".
Relatives of Robert Murat, who remains an official suspect in the case, have accused the agency of trying to frame him by pressuring witnesses into changing their statements.
In the interview with the Spanish newspaper-Metro, Mr Marco added: "It's the highest pressure case I've ever had to deal with, because of the press and because of my own family.
"When I get home at night, my children ask me, 'Have you found Madeleine yet, daddy?'"
Dismissing the suggestion of any involvement by the McCanns, who were declared official suspects in their daughter's disappearance after she vanished from the Ocean Club apartment complex, he said:
"You only have to spend five minutes with them to realise they've got nothing to do with this.
"To this day there's no proof of any traces of blood in the flat. In the boot of Gerry and Kate's hire car, so people say, there's traces of a tiny hair that could be Madeleine's.
"But that would be completely logical and normal being the family's car."
Repeating his earlier promise to find Madeleine before March, he said: "We have a six-month contract. We have always said we want to fulfill it by finding her."
Clarence Mitchell, spokesman for the McCanns, said the family has "absolute confidence in Metodo 3".

This guy need to shut the hell up. If she is alive he need to get her and now, end of story. So far all he does is talk about her being alive.

GO GET HER THEN AND BRING HER HOME. IF, AND I SAY IF SHE IS ALIVE SHE HAS GONE THROUGH ENOUGH STOP HER SUFFERING..

A pedophile ring?  Wow, I thought that canard went out of style in the '80's.  If it wasn't such a serious situation it'd be laughable.

Can someone just please shoot these f*ckers now, please?!?!

Christmas came and went, and despite the prediction of private detective hired by Kate and Gerry McCann that their daughter Madeleine would be found, the mystery of what happened to the 4-year-old continues.

Francisco Marco was hired by the couple to help find their daughter, who disappeared May 3 from a vacation apartment in Portugal.

"I cannot say who she is with because we are putting together conclusive proof we can present to the authorities so they can proceed with their arrests," Marco told the Spanish newspaper Metro on Dec. 13.

He had promised to find Madeleine by Christmas Day.

    McCanns 'in talks' to make Maddie The Movie
    Tuesday, January 8, 2008

    The McCanns are in negotiations to make a blockbuster film about their experiences over the search for their missing daughter Madeleine, according to reports.

    Talks with the world's largest talent and entertainment agency IMG are to take place tomorrow in what could be a multi-million deal, :cash: :cash: according to the Evening Standard.

    Kate and Gerry McCann feel they are in need of extra money amid fears as the £1.2m raised from public donations for the Madeleine Fund will soon run out. :cash: :cash:

    A source close to the McCanns told the paper: "We would only get involved in something done sensitively and considerately." :violin:

    The couple are also considering a book deal and selling interviews to the media, with all cash going to the fund. :cash: :cash:

    Madeleine, four, vanished from the family's holiday apartment in Praia da Luz, Portugal, on May 3.

    A source told the paper: “Donations from the public are still coming in but to sustain the fund properly we will need larger amounts. :cash: :cash:We have had a couple of large companies involved in the film industry approach us about a deal.

    “IMG and the production company behind Touching The Void have approached Kate and Gerry.”


    anyone notice a theme emerging? :cash: :cash:

    Regardless of whether or not they did anything to the child (which I personally believe they did) they are soul-less attention whores.  I would like to see them shunned by civilized society, at the least.
