Fadi Nasri, who made a televised appeal for information in the days after she was stabbed, is not the first killer to cry crocodile tears.<br /><br />TRACIE ANDREWS<br />One night in December 1996 Lee Harvey was stabbed to death on an isolated road in Alvechurch, Worcestershire.<br /><br />His fiancee, Tracie Andrews, told police he had been attacked by another motorist after a “road rage” incident.<br /><br /><br /> <br /> I held her hand at the press conference when all my family were pointing the finger and at the end of the day she lied Maureen Harvey <br /><br /><br />She later appeared at a police press conference looking in a terrible state and begging for help in catching the killer.<br /><br />The former model claimed a “fat man with staring eyes” had attacked her boyfriend, stabbing him more than 30 times.<br /><br />But detectives became sceptical of her story and they discovered that the couple had a stormy and often violent relationship.<br /><br />Andrews, who was 28 at the time, was later charged with murder and at her trial a jury was told she had stabbed him to death after a row.<br /><br />Last year, Mr Harvey’s mother, Maureen, said she could never forgive Andrews, who is serving a life sentence for the murder.<br /><br />Mrs Harvey said: “I held her hand at the press conference when all my family were pointing the finger and at the end of the day she lied.”<br /><br />MILES EVANS<br />In January 1997, nine-year-old schoolgirl Zoe Evans went missing from her home in Warminster, Wiltshire.<br /><br />Her mother, Paula Hamilton, and stepfather Miles Evans appeared at a press conference, begging for her to come home.<br /><br /><br /><br /><br />Miles Evans appealing for information to find missing Zoe <br /><br />Unbeknown to Zoe’s mother, the man sitting next to her was actually responsible for killing her daughter.<br /><br />Zoe’s naked body was later found in a badger sett and Evans was arrested and eventually convicted of her murder.<br /><br />It transpired that Zoe had been taken her from her bed and sexually assaulted.<br /><br />A post-mortem examination showed she died from asphyxiation.<br /><br />Zoe’s mother later said Evans deserved the death penalty for what he had done.<br /><br />GORDON WARDELL<br />In September 1994, Carol Wardell, the manager of a building society in Nuneaton, Warwickshire, was murdered and around £15,000 stolen from the branch.<br /><br />Her husband, Gordon, appeared at a press conference and told reporters he had returned home from the pub on a Sunday afternoon to find his wife being held captive by a man who was wearing a clown mask and was armed with a knife.<br /><br /><br />Gordon Wardell claimed his wife’s killer wore a clown mask <br /><br />Wardell claimed he had been punched and forced to the ground and fell unconscious after a chloroform-soaked cloth was pressed over his face.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13507323081802465917noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8388977942755921926.post-53266621338760217112010-01-26T01:57:13.116+00:002010-01-26T01:57:13.116+00:00Interesting just how many times the police subject...Interesting just how many times the police subject guilty people to press conferences etc as a means towards making them crack. But of course, CEOP are just bent apparently and want to help Gerry get away with it. They tell us no British Agency is really taking any action against the McCanns. Hang on a minute isn't that what Kate and Gerry want us to believe? "Sides" become very blurred against money making scamsters or just those with their own agenda to pursue, for whatever reason. <br /><br />There is only one side, little Madeleine and Justice for her and all abused children, not that they are the least bit concerned about that!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13507323081802465917noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8388977942755921926.post-55674491447738761272010-01-26T01:15:00.869+00:002010-01-26T01:15:00.869+00:00This is what the Home Office have to say to interm...This is what the Home Office have to say to intermeddling bloggers, who send a barrage of Freedom of Information Act requests and pontificate about the law that they plainly do not understand written by Barmy Bennett. When are they going to sit up and listen! How dare they just insist Madeleine is dead so they know better!! Did you ever, ever, stop to think that Madeleine and other children lives and safety could be at risk. How dare you demand an apology from me. <br /><br /><br />Harm and prejudice<br /><br />The investigation into the disappearance of Madeleine McCann is still ongoing. There are significant unknowns in relation to her disappearance. Leicestershire Constabulary are the lead force in the UK dealing with this investigation but the principle investigation agency is Policia Judiciara (PJ) in Portugal.<br /><br />We believe that significant harm to the investigation could result from either confirming or denying that we hold the information you have asked for.<br /><br />Should this investigation lead to a prosecution, saying whether or not this information is or is not held by the Home Office would risk undermining the human rights of any suspect to a fair trial and the rights of a victim, particularly if the prosecution would fail due to such an announcement.<br /><br />If the Home Office was to either confirm or deny that it did or did not hold any information that was gathered in the course of this investigation, it might risk compromising the conduct of this investigation.<br /><br />This could ultimately prejudice the administration of justice. In any event, to confirm or deny that any such information that was or was not obtained in the course of a criminal investigation, either voluntarily or through compulsory powers, ought not to be generally disclosed, save as far as it is necessary for the purposes of establishing or defending rights in litigation.<br /><br />There is consequently a strong public interest in ensuring that evidence is not contaminated for any future trial. In addition there is a strong public interest to preserve relations with the Policia Judiciara (PJ) in Portugal whilst Madeleine remains missing.<br /><br />Two of the Home Office’s objectives are to support the efficient and effective delivery of justice, and to lead visible, responsive and accountable policing.<br /><br />The manner in which the Home Office works to support the Police Service as a whole is one of our core business functions.<br /><br />If the Home Office prejudiced such a high-profile and sensitive investigation by confirming or denying that we either do or do not hold any of the information that you have requested, we would be seen as working against the efforts of both UK and Portuguese policing authorities, undermining their determined efforts to locate Madeline McCann and her assailants. This would not be in the best interests of the public..<br /><br />Any prejudicial effects to these ongoing investigations could jeopardise the health & safety, of Madeline McCann, in that it might significantly affect the chances of her being found.<br /><br />There is no actual public interest served in releasing information that may jeopardise the health & safety of any individual.<br /><br />There is a strong public interest in the UK maintaining the arrangements it currently enjoys with other States in matters of judicial and mutual legal cooperation in criminal and other matters.<br /><br />Any act that would prejudice this investigation may discourage other States with complying with reasonable requests issued by the UK or from pursuing legitimate investigations in the UK for fear that the product of such requests or investigations may be disclosed to private citizens.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13507323081802465917noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8388977942755921926.post-6831543948253483232010-01-26T00:42:35.775+00:002010-01-26T00:42:35.775+00:00Hiya Joe

Its all like a black comedy.Joehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15247401239046428090noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8388977942755921926.post-88361367777020778412010-01-25T22:57:06.152+00:002010-01-25T22:57:06.152+00:00"It was felt that a truly international firm ..."It was felt that a truly international firm was now needed to lead the inquiry. These really are the big boys. *August 2008 as the McCanns were released from Arguido status by Portugal, see this blog Aug 08 for full reports including it was actually half a million he had not £300,000, apparently)<br /><br />Ummm Mr Halligen and Mr Halligen and Mr Halligen (*an Irish conman whose only links to US really was the one million pound house he bought there with all the money he conned)so an Irish conman then just like Gerry McCann turned out to be these big boys, this truly International firm and he looked quite small when he was arrested by Brit cops for serious fraud and whisked off to the US to face the music. Your turn next Gerry and no burying bad news eh! And how seriously you take the search for little Maddie, you rat!!<br /><br /><br /><br />"Madeleine McCann's parents hire US private investigators<br />Madeleine McCann's parents have hired a US private investigator firm made up of former CIA and FBI agents and special forces veterans as part of a renewed push to find their missing daughter, it was reported.<br /><br />By Aislinn Simpson Last Updated: 8:47AM BST 13 Aug 2008<br />The team are said to be taking over primary responsibility for the investigating into Madeleine's disappearance, although the Spanish firm Metodo 3, which has until now spearheaded the search, will continue to follow up information from Spain and Portugal.<br />The news comes shortly after Portuguese police shelved the case and released a 30,000 page dossier detailing their investigation.<br />The dossier has revealed thousands of potential sightings of the three-year-old following her disappearance from the family's rented holiday apartment in Praia da Luz in the Algarve on May 3 last year.<br />The US firm, which has not been named, is said to have been offered a £500,000 six-month contract by the Find Madeleine Fund, which has received donations from several wealthy benefactors and wellwishers around the world.<br />However, according to previous reports, there is only £500,000 left in the fighting fund.<br />A friend of Kate and Gerry McCann said of the hiring: "It was felt that a truly international firm was now needed to lead the inquiry.

Can you tell us where we are in that civil case, right now? As if they need something else to continue to worry about.<br /><br />CM: Well, absolutely, that's the last thing they need. This is a book written by a former police officer who was removed from the case after he criticised British police, errr... in the inquiry, errr... some two years ago. Errr... He's written a book in which he makes those allegations, as you say, he claims that he believes Madeleine is dead and that Kate and Gerry know what happened. It is totally untrue. Nor has he any evidence to make those wild, libellous allegations and that's why Kate and Gerry have gained an injunction to stop his book from being published anymore. He currently is appealing against that and we're expecting a ruling from a judge in February... mid February. Kate and Gerry obviously remain very hopeful that the judge will do the right thing and ban the book completely. We don't like to take that sort of legal action but the allegations this man is making will make people believe that Madeleine is dead and therefore they won't look for her and that will damage the search.<br /><br />JW: Alright, Clarence Mitchell, we thank you so much for your time. Our thoughts continue to be with the McCanns in their search. Thank you.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13507323081802465917noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8388977942755921926.post-34361953928861200432010-01-25T14:20:08.814+00:002010-01-25T14:20:08.814+00:00Transcript

Clarence, good morning, thanks for being with us today.<br /><br />Clarence Mitchell: Good morning, Jenna, good to be with you.<br /><br />JW: So, as we mentioned, this does mark... this week will mark the 1,000 date anniversary of Madeleine's disappearance. Can you tell us how her parents are holding up?<br /><br />CM: Kate and Gerry have good and bad days, as you would well expect given that their daughter is still not home, as you say, nearly a thousand days on. They draw greatest strength from when they sense there is momentum in the search, and in the wider campaign to keep awareness of Madeleine high in the public eye, and so, on Wednesday, to mark a thousand days exactly they're going to be holding a fund raising event in London and they'll be surrounded by their long term friends and supporters, so they will draw great strength from that. But it is very difficult and they do find any, errr... anniversary or occasion like this to be very difficult.<br /><br />JW: We understand that Gerry and Kate have also hired their own, errr... private investigator. Can you tell us a little bit about how that investigation is going? Has it led to any leads?<br /><br />CM: There are lots of leads, whether they're the significant one that will lead to Madeleine is the question, and no... have we found her yet? No we haven't. Errr... It's a very small team currently looking into Madeleine's disappearance, led by some former British detectives now acting as private investigators. They're doing a very thorough job of going back over all the evidence, all the Portuguese police files that were finally released after a lot of pressure from... from this end and, errr... they feel that there is useful information still out there to be had; we still need people to come forward. If people go to the findmadeleine.com website all of the contact emails and phone numbers for anyone who thinks they may have seen her, or has any information about her, should... should look at that website. That information will go straight to our investigators and they are following it up on a daily basis. They go back to Portugal, from time to time; they were back there recently. The work is very much ongoing, although Madeleine isn't quite in the headlines as much as she was, the search is very much continuing and there are hundreds of calls that are still being checked out.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13507323081802465917noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8388977942755921926.post-82028317821345740732010-01-25T14:05:17.943+00:002010-01-25T14:05:17.943+00:00Hiya both!
Joe what you say makes a lot of sense,...Hiya both!<br /><br />Joe what you say makes a lot of sense, if they find Madeleine in Portugal that would most certainly get both the Portuguese and British Police in a high state of activity.<br /><br />But I would like to stress that even if Madeleine was found alive, she did not disappear due to the acts of any strangers to the McCanns. Their involvement in this crime is beyond any doubt whatsoever. She is a Ward of the British Court and would most certainly not be returned to the McCanns. <br /><br />Have you seen the new video from Clarence? They are obviously very worried given he is back spinning for them. I thought it was amusing the way he says the Pt file was finally released after a lot of pressure from (and he hesitates looking for the right word)..this end! This would seem to directly contradict Gerry McCann in that he has frequently bemoaned the releasing of information into the public domain.<br /><br />He also directly contradicts the recent comment of Gerry when clearly very angry and upset, "we have no leads". Clarence has fixed that, he says there are hundreds!!! and our investigators pop back to Portugal from time to time, they have just been back recently. Yes, we know Clarence, at the same time the Mccanns popped back to continue their offensive against Goncalo Amaral. <br /><br />I also got a hint from what Mitchell is saying they are not so confident now of banning this book completely, what do you think? <br /><br />I tend to think the book was not really libellous, it was a factual account from Goncalo of the investigation and the conduct of the McCanns throughout, that really given the open justice in Portugal people have a right to know. But where I do think he has gone wrong is by categorically stating that Madeleine is dead when there is no clear evidence to confirm that is the case. It was a good working hypothesis and very worthy of investigation, but that does not translate it into a fact, no matter many people would like it to be, that I can never really understand. How could be do such a thing really? If that little girl has been got rid of by her parents trafficking her as the police clearly believed possible and is suffering terrible sexual abuse, do people not want her rescued from that?<br /><br />I would like to see just a bit more concern for decency, compassion and real and genuine concern about Madeleine, rather than just ranging themselves behind various characters in this drama. I do not care about Kate and Gerry McCann and Goncalo is fine, I care about Madeleine!<br /><br />http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/21134540/vp/35044105#35044105Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13507323081802465917noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8388977942755921926.post-59084289590387993892010-01-25T13:09:47.121+00:002010-01-25T13:09:47.121+00:00I don't think that she will be found alive or ...I don't think that she will be found alive or dead. If she were found then the whole thing would start up again for them, and all those awkward questions.<br /><br />If the poor child was found alive, and if they were involved all those questions would have to be answered, and why they and the Tapas 7 were so obstructive to the Police, if it was a case of kidnap by an unknown party. Their collective actions did/do not marry up with such a scenario IMO.<br /><br />If the child's remains were found, their actions come into question and who was responsible? Then there would be a body and no longer a hypothesis that she is dead or alive. Charges of some sort would surely follow. So overall I think that things will stay the same as either of the above would get the Police in the UK and PT back on the case, the end of the fund and all that posturing.Joehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15247401239046428090noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8388977942755921926.post-34455077190696261032010-01-25T07:57:19.397+00:002010-01-25T07:57:19.397+00:00Morning Viv

Wiz, I tend to agree with you on that,...Hiya both <br /><br />Wiz, I tend to agree with you on that, childrens personalities are shaped by the conditioning they receive as a child, genetics do not seem to play such a major role but I know opinion on this is divided. <br /><br />But these two lads surely prove the point. <br /><br />Hope, I also agree that when people become parents, they take on responsibilities and your analogy with being a dog owner is a good one. In every conceivable way we can be held responsible for the consequences of our actions, but not, it would seem, when we condition monsters instead of children. Parental attitudes need to be changed!<br /><br />I also agree that it rather looks like the McScams latest plan is to either spring Maddie from wherever they have hidden her or find her body and blame Hewlett. <br /><br />How incredibly cynical for Edgar to pop back to PDL at the same time as them last week.<br /><br />They must be getting desperate to have these allegations lifted from them and realise the Portuguese Police, the British Police are just not listening to them, and the action against Goncalo was a waste of time. Even if he does get told to stop saying such things, they will not get the million quid they have been telling everyone they are going to get and that is going to make them look very silly!<br /><br />Leicester Police sent them a chilling warning and it is rattling their cages.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13507323081802465917noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8388977942755921926.post-18996817939167005792010-01-24T15:35:51.202+00:002010-01-24T15:35:51.202+00:00Well said Hope!Well said Hope!Wizardhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13647410173508843374noreply@blogger.com
