Madeleine McCann, a British missing person, disappeared from her holiday apartment in Portugal at the age of three. The case has become so mythic that it has inspired increasingly baroque conspiracy theories. Some believe Madeleine may have been snatched after waking up and disturbing intruders, while others believe she was abducted by predatory paedophiles.
The disappearance of Madeleine has led to a hunt for her whereabouts in Germany, where a large, costly police operation has been conducted. A German prosecutor is “sure” that Madeleine was killed by suspect Christian B. The McCanns drugged Madeleine to prevent her from waking up, and police allege that they faked Maddie’s abduction and hidden her body.
Madeline’s whereabouts remain unknown, but German prosecutors believe she is dead. The McCanns’ drugging of Madeleine allowed her to avoid awakening, and her mother Julia Wandelt became a lightning rod for online anger when she posted on social media that she believed she was Madeleine McCann. Her death taught them that accidents, burglaries, and abductions are all possible explanations for Madeleine’s disappearance.
If Madeleine is alive, it is highly unlikely that she would remember her real name, where she lived, or her circumstances. She may have been abducted by predatory paedophiles, assaulted and either died or was killed, or taken by someone with the intention of stealing.
📹 The Untold Truth Of Madeleine McCann’s Parents
You’ve probably heard about the disappearance of Madeleine McCann, but what do you know about her controversial parents?
Did the McCann family do a DNA test?
A DNA test confirmed that Wendell is not Madeleine McCann’s long-lost child, as had been speculated. A spokesperson for Kate and Gerry McCann stated that there is no immediate news to report, but that updates will be provided by the Metropolitan Police as they become available.
What is the mystery of Madeleine McCann?
Madeleine Beth McCann, a British missing person, disappeared from her holiday apartment in Lagos, Portugal, at the age of 3. The disappearance was described as the most heavily reported missing-person case in modern history by the Daily Telegraph. Madeleine was on holiday with her parents, Kate and Gerry McCann, her twin siblings, and a group of family friends and their children. The McCanns were given arguido (suspect) status in September 2007, but the case was archived in July 2008 for lack of evidence.
The McCanns continued the investigation using private detectives until Scotland Yard opened its own inquiry, Operation Grange, in 2011. The senior investigating officer treated the disappearance as “a criminal act by a stranger”, likely a planned abduction or burglary gone wrong. In 2013, Scotland Yard released e-fit images of men they wanted to trace, including one seen carrying a child toward the beach on the night Madeleine vanished. Portuguese police reopened their inquiry in 2013, and Operation Grange was scaled back in 2015.
In 2020, German authorities declared Christian Brückner their prime suspect for the abduction and murder of Madeleine, but charges have yet to be formalized. Madeleine’s whereabouts remain unknown, and German prosecutors believe she is dead.
Why does Julia think she is Madeline?
Julia, a woman suspected of not belonging to her family, found an unusual physical resemblance to Madeleine, who also has a coloboma of the iris, a rare eye abnormality. Julia contacted the police in Poland and the UK, but no one treated her seriously. Over the years, several young women and girls have come forward claiming to be Madeleine McCann, but all have proven to be false. Julia’s case highlights the need for more accurate and accurate identification of individuals with similar conditions.
Has the killer of Madeleine McCann been found?
In 2020, German investigators identified Brueckner as a suspect in the case. Subsequently, in May 2022, Portuguese prosecutors formally charged him as a suspect. Investigator Hans Christian Wolters has stated that he is certain of Brueckner’s involvement in the murder of Madeleine McCann.
What happened to Julia Faustyna?
Faustyna Johansson, a Polish model, has denied allegations of being a paedo after revealing her DNA test results and appearance on Dr Phil. She denied having child pornography on her phone and promoting illegal activities to teenagers. Faustyna emphasized that if someone is a paedo, they would not go to a police station or discuss her controversial statements publicly, as it would be dangerous for them. She urged reporters to be cautious when identifying a paedo.
What do people think happened to Madeline?
In 2007, private detectives discovered evidence suggesting human trafficking “spotters” were operating in Praia da Luz at the time of Maddie’s disappearance. The theory suggests Maddie may have been hidden and handed over to a child trafficker two days after disappearing and taken to Morocco. This theory was explored after a report of Maddie being photographed by a stranger, suggesting it could have been part of a selection process.
Do the McCanns feel guilty?
The couple felt guilty for not being with Madeleine during her abduction, despite the fact that they were in the same bedroom. They initially struggled with guilt but received numerous support letters and calls from others who believed they would have done the same. As time went on, they felt stronger and supported, expressing their belief that no one will ever feel more guilty for their actions.
Are Kate and Gerry guilty?
Kate and Gerry McCann, parents of Madeleine McCann, have been questioned by authorities but have maintained their innocence. In 2008, they were cleared as suspects, and the identity of the person who took Madeleine remains unknown. On the 17th anniversary of her disappearance, the McCanns expressed their disbelief and the unsettling feeling of living in limbo. They acknowledged that their daughter’s absence still aches and that they are fortunate to have a normal life now. The couple’s story highlights the ongoing uncertainty surrounding Madeleine’s whereabouts.
Are the McCanns guilty?
In 2007, Kate McGuinness was accused of involvement in the death of her daughter, Madeleine, but the couple maintained their innocence throughout the investigation. In 2008, they were cleared as suspects. In 2020, German authorities named Christian Brueckner as a suspect, but a lack of evidence prevented them from convicting him. Brueckner received a seven-year sentence in December 2019 for raping a 72-year-old American woman in Portugal.
He was in the process of appealing that sentence when he was linked to Madeleine’s case, but at the time was serving a 21-month sentence in Germany for dealing drugs. Despite prosecutors’ belief that Brueckner killed Madeleine, he was in the process of appealing that sentence when he was linked to Madeleine’s case.
Is Julia Faustyna a missing child?
DNA evidence has confirmed that Julia Faustyna, also known as Julia Wendell and Julia Wandelt, is not the missing daughter of Kate and Gerry McCann. The 21-year-old created an Instagram account, “@IamMadelineMcCann”, based on photographic similarities. Madeleine McCann went missing in 2007 at age 3 during a family vacation to Portugal. Her parents were initially suspects but were cleared in 2008. The account was created by the 21-year-old, who circulated on social media.
Are the McCanns still suspects?
In 2008, Portugal’s attorney-general declared McCann no longer suspects in Madeleine’s abduction, coinciding with the end of the first inquiry. The McCanns were devastated to be named arguido suspects and portrayed in the media as suspects in their daughter’s disappearance. Since then, authorities and private investigators have followed numerous leads and conducted searches for Madeleine. In 2011, British authorities took an invested interest in the case, leading to Operation Grange, a British inquiry. Since then, detectives have investigated 60 people of interest, taken over a thousand statements, and looked into countless potential sightings of Madeleine around the world.

If they came from a poor Coucil estate, they would have had the other children taken away from them for poor parenting, and we all know it, who goes to a bar with friends and leaves their very young child alone ? It’s the same old thing, one law for the poor, and a completely different law for the rich, It’s poor Madeleine. I feel sorry, she was failed badly by her own parents .
Advised not to show any emotion so that the kidnapper or kidnappers might find joy in their pain What a load of bollocks!. She refused to answer any questions from the Portuguese police when her cooperation could have helped solve this. Maybe that why she refused to assist them. I took my daughter abroad at least 20 times and never ever left her at kid clubs or even worse alone in an apartment with even younger siblings! Disgrace the pair of them and I’m 100% convinced it was them
Gerry McCann was the person who called the british tabloids and publicly mentioned the mark in Madeline’s eye against the wishes of the police, the only fingerprints found on the window belonged to Kate McCann. The twins who were asleep in the same room as Madeline didn’t wake up till after noon even though an alleged kidnapping had taken place and the room was packed with the Tapas 7 and Gerry and Kate when the police arrived and the twins still continued to sleep during the initial investigation of the room by police, which was suspicious to the main detective. The so called crime scene had been destroyed by the McCann’s and their friends when police arrived. Amazing how they say they continue to buy her birthday presents considering they had no birthday celebration booked for her when she went “missing” and had no birthday presents for her either. The McCann’s went on a world tour to try and convince people of their innocence the question is why is the british government protecting them? The McCann’s and all their doctor friends the Tapas 7 all left their children alone that night in a foreign country when they all had the option of a nanny service that they could afford, why?
strange that doctors the parents of the child would give sleeping tablets to their own children and go out on a dinner leaving their children at the hotel without babysitters, it is not like they could not afford a babysitter . no2 setting up a go fund me themselves for donations and making a spectacle of themselves treating themselves as celebrities to help them find their child . for i can understand also their has been rumors that the child died due to overdose of sleeping tablets so they hid the body . what ever the truth is a child is no longer on the earth due to they wanted to act single and leave their child on their own she is the victim . they also written a book,what parent produces a book,public money of 15 million was funded to find the girl . the parents used their daughter as a money train.
It’s still absolutely mind-boggling that all those parents consciously decided to leave small children alone at a resort in a foreign country (or anywhere for that matter). Even if they could see the units and were periodically checking on them, how did they know one of their kids weren’t choking, crying, scared, needing to potty, etc.? If they wanted an adults-only vacation, they simply shouldn’t have brought their children along. Truly unfathomable that they were all capable of such poor judgement…🤯
I have never heard of not showing emotions because the kidnappers would enjoy it! Really, you want me to believe that? You want me to believe you both can control your emotions like that? And, basically, you lose your daughter and set up a foundation and live off it? And return to walk the Street where it all happened. I feel sorry for the siblings who had to grow up with this shadow.
WHO THE FUCK LEAVES ALL BABIES ALONE??? There can be robbery, fire, gas leakage… i can think of 100 other things that could happen! The LEAST to do was to set up nanny cams in the room and monitor them!!! Even with that personally I wouldnt be satisfied! YOU DO NOT LEAVE KIDS ALONE!! Especially in a hotel where STAFF HAS FULL ACCESS AND KIDS TO YOUR ROOM!! I wouldnt even leave my passport and money in my hotel room leave alone my babies!!!
I have been lucky enough to have been able to take my son abroad every year since he was born – he’s 12 now. Not once did it ever occur to me to leave him alone in the hotel – even when they provide a babysitting service. That’s his holiday too, why shouldn’t he be out enjoying the evenings too?! Rule of thumb…… If you wouldn’t do it at home, don’t do it abroad where you don’t know anyone.
This is just a crock of Sh-t, those parents were never really questioned and seem to have gotten away with murder. I do believe it was an accident that they covered up because they felt that they would lose their other two children if it became known to authorities that they had left the 3 children all alone in a strange appt in strange beds. I just wish they had been properly questioned at the time, along with their friends and we may have reached the truth. Too late now tho, they are home and dry imo. Poor little Maddy !!
Yeah. What you don’t know about them is that they are obsessed with each other to a toxic degree and don’t think there’s anything wrong in leaving 3b babies alone, in an unlocked room, while they went out for the evening. Then raised multi millions of pounds from the public to try to find the child THEY neglected.
As sad as this little girls story is.There are so many more children that have gone missing all over the world I wonder how their parents feel about the great amount of money and time being put in for the search of Maddie.Where has the millions come from to keep this case open so long and why haven’t there been more publicity for the other missing children that has happened more recently.,I hope a resolution comes forth shortly and the world can know the truth of Maddies disappearance what ever it is.
“…in May 2007… Madeleine McCann vanished from her bedroom…” “…her parents… were having dinner while Madeleine…slept…” “…the McCann’s and their friends took turns going back to their apartments to check in on their children…” “…Kate checked in on her children… and discovered Madeleine was gone…” There is no evidence to show that any of these statements made in this article from 0.08 to 0.34 are true.
Heard their ‘story’ I’d really like to hear Madeleines, bet it differs greatly to their version, hopefully, one day, the real truth will out, hope I’m alive to hear it, Madeleine deserves justice. A line from Kates book, Madeleine “I just wanted to shout the truth from the rooftops” We’re waiting & listening, Kate, shout away.
Made millions out of that disapearence. Then used a business man to. Launder it through dodgy PI firm from Portugal. Proved by BBC afyer they paid off their mortgage, £250k. THIS was one if girt things they done with donation money. They claimed they couldn’t work. So people who donated to help Maddie. Bought their mansion for them. Fact.
Please I wish people would leave this…We locals KNOW what happened The dogs DO NOT LIE Eddie and Keela have been deliberately white washed out of the story.. They SIGNALLED cadaver, blood and bodily fluids in the apartment. Behind the sofa,on the windowsill.,in the wardrobe NOONE seems to want an answer to this. least of all the McCanns. Detectives NEVER found any evidence of an intruder.least of all the German Breuckner-s DNA .What we do know is that this is a colossal cover up..like the Jon Bonnet one…Luz has been scarred enough by this couple and their friends.Leave it alone
Was Maddie already dead when she was abducted? So far the McCanns have managed to maintain an impenetrable exterior. It takes the right stimulus to bring it out. Which of the two do you suppose will be the first to crack with that question? His reaction will be an arrogant brush off, but maternal emotions prevail and she breaks down relieving herself of a mental burden that is eroding her life. The McCann interviews give the impression that they know something that they do not wish investigators, including the media, to ask. They seem to be covering for someone whose trust they will not betray. The question that they hope no one will ever ask: Was the child dead or alive when abducted? The root cause appears to be sedatives, either directly by overdose, by adverse reaction with another drug or that resulted in the accidental death of the child from fatal injury. The operator of a resort does not wish their reputation to be tarnished and deals expeditiously with this kind of situation. They know what the low lives that lurk in their vicinity are up to and make use of persons like the suspect in order to dispose of the body. Or, the suspect on the alert for an opportunity to do a burglary observes the McCanns hiding the body and takes it for himself, which is why he had photos that the German police discovered. By her belief that the abductor sedated the children Kate has unwittingly revealed that the perpetrator was a doctor, hence one of her own group. Nothing precludes a pedophile from becoming a doctor and contact with children draws him to this profession.
They didnt find anything major and of they did i still think her parents have a huge part in this! The guy who they named as the main suspect i think is innocent in this case or he was payed off by her parents. Her parents are who needs to be investigated. I mean why get so close to the priest ? They made it their motive to get their hands on the keys. Either they snuck her body into that coffin of that woman or they dumped her somehwhere nobody can find her. Im assuming they burned her knowing dna cannot be found in ashes. Theres a reason kate still visits that area.. not because she is “looking for clues” as she claims but because she knows where she last seen maddie alive and where maddie is. I also think its very odd that the friends were also checking on their children.. its possible that gerry and his other friend had set up to sell maddie and its very possible that gerry killed her and kate later found her body and they covered up everything. CADAVAR DOGS DO NOT LIE! The police need to RE-INVESTIGATE THESE TWO LOW LIFE “PARENTS”. can we create a petition online to bring some light to this on the parents being re-investigated? . I know people are tired of hearing about this case while other children are missing but we cannot seriously let two evil people get away when they KNOW something 100%. They or whoever was involved can harm others and get away with it. They made a joke out of the world . I emailed what i thought was a detective i found on a website for maddie and it was actuallu Gerry and Kate and their response to me was PURE EVIL AND SICKENING!
Sorry but the parents r 99.9% responsible for what happened n no obviously u can’t blame them 100% but they can try avoiding responsibility, people can justify it all they like but to leave the same building as my 3 yr old let alone far enough away to not hear them cry the night before is unthinkable for me as a father. PEOPLE PLEASE LEARN FROM THIS AND SAFEGUARD YOUR CHILDREN…..PROPERLY!!!!
I once happened to be close to the father while on business, he seemed hard and unemotional, looking at some of this footage the mother seems unable to look at the cameras. If Madeline was still alive when her picture was released,she probably died quickly after, her odd eye is a certain give away, why not photoshop that out? The two remaining children left will be the hardest for the parents to deal with if the parents harmed Maddie in anyway, plus the thought of it might of happened to us to.
If you look into these people before, during and after the ‘disappearance’ of their daughter, you’ll see that they were/are involved with an unbelievable number of known and convicted paedophiles, just one being Clement Freud. Why would anbody, let alone parents of young children, want to be associated with such people, also that spine chilling Kate McCann said about the ‘genitals being ripped apart’ in her book (before they took it out in further editions) is just beyond belief, what mother would say that? There is something creepy and evil about them and I think they have so many secrets hidden between them, they’re so fake and so patronising, so greedy and so heartless!
If the explanation is unbelievable then the most probable series of events are the most likely. The Portuguese police investigated the case and gave the most likely scenario. The mcanns meanwhile seem to have reached selebrity status and lifestyle. The statements of the party of doctors who were present would seem to be cast iron.
Thoughts and prayers to parents out there whose kid went missing and hundreds of thousands of dollars and hundreds of thousands of police and citizens were NOT used to lead a world-wide manhunt spanning across countries. What happened to Madeleine McCann was horrible, but other little kids out there who are not white or who belong to families without lots of money are just as important. And I don’t think it’s a secret that those families do not have the same experience as the Mccanns.
Its all about their needs especially on holiday eating & drinking was the priority over their children. Zero Empathy. 99% of parents would be a physical & mental wreck tormenting themselves for leaving the children alone & what has happened & is happening to Madeleine if she has been abducted. Now i believe they accidentally overdosed Madeline on sleeping medication because she was upset & traumatised about being left alone with the twins without her parents. Madeline may of woken up & in a drowsy state accidentally fallen off the sofa or onto a table or been sick because of the sleep medication & inhaled her vomit & accidently killed herself & they covered it up by saying she was abducted. Its unbelievable how “not bothered” how they both present themselves & talking about other abductions. Its not normal behaviour from either of them. Its common knowledge if they had not of had status as doctors, money & influential friends in the UK the Portugal police would of charged them. To me a big clue is her washing Madelines favourite toy – most parents would want to keep the smell of their missing child on the toy for comfort. Its like she wanted to get rid of Madeline’s smell because she did not want that reminder & carried around the toy for sympathy.
Bad move by whoever advised them ” do not show emotion, as the abductor may have pleasure in the parents sadness ” WRONG ! This was an “own goal” the killers feelings should NEVER have been taken into acount with this !!! This was an “own goal” for the advisory people . This turned the public against the couple. Wrong wrong wrong. People need to audit these experts
Not only that but when she dissapeared you see the mum jogging on the beach . A mum in grieve would have cried and searched but this one not only stayed sober but they tried to blame the Portugal police,and why they left them together when intorigated .also the friends . All that money given for them to spend on thier house . Shame on our government at the time listening to the media to help them . P0RTUGAL WAS and is a beautiful country that British families liked to visit with their kids . These couple and their group of friends liked to entertain themselves also doping the kids so they’ll have fun . So the mum is working in charity,hope she’s not Incharge earning a huge paycheck .as for her hubby I would not trust him operating on me .😢
I just know that when my kids were very young I was incapable of leaving them on their own day or night. Can’t understand it.Also if they didn’t want to use the babysitting service,why didn’t they employ their own Nanny to mind them?Sure they could of afforded it surely,even if on a temporary basis???
Please don’t show emotion about your missing daughter who you drugged, left alone, asked for donations, did not take a lie detector, had blood and DNA hits from cadavar dogs and UV detection. It is an absolute insult to her memory. The McCans I believe accidentally killed her daughter and panicked, at least she is resting in eternal peace now.
On the evening maddie went missing an Irish tourist witnessed a man carrying a child resembling maddie walking away from the apartments . The same Irish guy said the man resembled maddies dad Gerry and was struck by the unusual way the child was being carried . I beleive this to be the way doctors carry children, Gerry is a doctor .
Too many inaccuracies in this report, such as the 15-minute checks on the sleeping children. The staff testified that no-one left the table to check on any of the children. And as for “dining only a hundred yards from the children’s bedroom”, that is measuring the distance on the map. It takes actually a good two or three minutes to cover the circuitous path.
I think either someone realised those children were left in the evenings and decided they would do a better job of parenting the older child. OR the children were sedated to allow the parents to socialise and the sedation gave Madeleine a bad reaction which led to her demise and a cover up. It always seems when perusal these parent interviews, that it is a tiresome nuscance and the sooner its over the better.
Why did they not hire a sitter for the kids? Jesus, we don’t even leave our chihuahuas alone! They either come on vacation with us or we don’t go either. We don’t leave them alone in the room either. I don’t know if the parents were involved in her disappearance or not; but they and their moronic friends were definitely negligent.
Just imagine the what ifs.. What if those poor parents actually left their 3 kids sleeping in their beds to go and have a drink at the bar still within the range of vision to them? My parents did that when me and my siblings were small kiddos. They are certainly about the best parents anyone could wish for! Makes me sick to think about how quick some folks are at judging orhers. My heart goes out to the entire McCann family ❤
But what if she had died the day before they said and the body was hidden at that time. They may have checked the refrigerators but they would not even think to chck the local church! In religious countries people trust their church as a rule. My mother is Irish and when she was 12 the local priest came to her house and asked her mother if my mother could come to church on Saturday to help him with some filing. My grandmother thought it was an honour to have her daughter chosen and sent her off in her best dress and hair neatly done. She must have looked like an angel. When she got their the priest took her up to the second floor of the church where he had an office and when he took her into that room he locked the door with a key and put the key in his vestment pocket. However, no sooner was she in the room that this monster tried to molest her. He obviously missed the fact that she was a redhead because my mother beat him so badly that he jumped out of the 2nd floor window to escape her and broke his legs. And like in the McCann case there was a huge cover up by the church and in those days there was no social media to expose him or the church.
I don’t think it was a planned, intentional death. I think that they might have made a mistake with the sedating drugs they were using to put the kids to sleep each night – which, let’s face it, is a questionable tactic anyway. It’s plausible that, as doctors, both of them gave Maddie her dose one night, not realising the other parent had already done it. This could have happened at any time well before the dinner, and panicking, they shoved the lifeless child behind the couch whilst they came up with a plan to bundle the corpse away somewhere. That would explain why the Police Sniffer Dog signalled what they call ‘cadaver odour’ behind the couch and in the rental car. Having removed the body, it would be a very smart move to fake the abduction at a time when they both had a super solid public alibi at the meal – and, like I say, admitting to negligence makes them seem more ‘honest’. It’s not incomprehensible, that two doctors would not want to admit to an accident that would destroy their careers or result in prison. In their minds, perhaps losing their daughter was ‘punishment enough’.
I think you don’t need blood for these dogs that are trained to detect trace evidence of a dead corpse. A place where there was a dead cadaver present at some point. No blood trace needed. That poor, poor little girl. May she be resting in peace. Any parent would have been over the f##king moon to have a little daughter like Madeleine. Bless her. Leaving your children on their own in a foreign land. Nah. No no. Nada nada and so on. Peace!
Wow, these comments are hateful. I saw another online report that 1) the McCanns were offered babysitting services but they declined the offer; 2) this resort had loose screens on the windows because an elderly woman who had been staying there in the past that someone got into her room and attacked her (liability on the resort); and 3) it was believed that someone working at the restaurant knew someone else and passed the word along that the children were alone. In hindsight I’m sure the parents are kicking themselves for their actions and wished they had done differently. They probably also thought they were all safe at that resort. Unless the resort added security I would never stay there.
I have a lot of sympathy for the McCann’s, yes it was a terrible lack of judgement and they paid for it in the loss of their child. Anyone trolling grieving parents are committing a far worse crime than Madeline’s parents. I can’t imagine the pain they are going through and will continue going through for the rest of their lives. Isn’t that enough punishment for the mistake they made?
This is all pretty strange, even for a person who have no kids you obvious sense would make you think leave babys, above all a toddler who can get into trouble in one sec isn’t a good idea, for me those parents were pretty negligent and unfortunately something fatal happened to her, perhaps he fell down and broke her head, maybe they did a bad estimate abt how much sedation may Maddie got. However they get rid of her (that explains the dogs smelling corpses and blood) and such as the Bennett Ramsey case we would never know because the parents who have huge influence and money are involved.
So where is “the untold truth”? We already know everything covered here?? Just another like gatherer is my guess! That said, what is not covered here is the inconsistencies in the McCann’s stories, the truth about their actions, and WHY did the police here not grill the living daylights out of them after they refused point blank to answer certain critical questions?? As well as other mysteries like why did they call a leading politician here in the U.K before informing the police there that Maddy had gone missing?! The best known cadaver dog brought in showed positive and persistent interest in the McCanns car, there are gaps in timelines,, the whole affair stinks of cover ups lies deceit and falsehoods of what the real truth is!!
Why not come clean at least that weight would be off their shoulders even if they had to do jail. All that wasted money that was collected by careing people even myself and the McCann’s knowing what had happened. They even gave out flyers with Maddies photo. They could ruin it for other lost people. If it was an accident i do feel sorry for them the pain in their hearts 💔.
I’ve meditated on Madeline’s case many times. I honestly believe her parents sold her to elite business men that her father has ties to. They got a lot of money from this arrangement. Madeline was exactly what these people were looking for. In my opinion allegedly Madeline was given up for ritual sacrifice. This goes on a lot more in this world than people can imagine.
When they were in a bus with all their children and some of their friends they did not look as troubled persons, they looked so serious, Gerry looked tense and also his wife but not capable to commit a crime, I belive the little girl suffered a condition, and they went out and she died, her eye has a mark perhaps she did not have correct vision at night, and she fell the stairs.
LOL they were advised NOT TO SHOW EMOTIONS haha! thats insane!! IF I WAS advised that I would show the person my middle finger!!! like seriously you want me to be stoic when I dont know whats happening to my baby and in which pain torture she must be going through!!! I would show emotions for the death of me! I COULD NOT have been even ABLE TO DO OTHER WISE! They must be both psychopaths to be able to control their emotions like that! or.. maybe .. where I could cut them some slack is they were both STUNNED in shock! That said.. if that was the case.. at some point later they could have cried!
Dogs told us Madeleine died in that apartment .they have never cried for there daughter.kate on one of interviews she said after 3rd day of Madeleine missing dead she slept better ate better in my opinion they know she’s dead either they did it or new who did the dods barked behind sofa boot of hired car on Kate clothes guilty why havnt they been told to have lie detector test .Gerry when in one of his interviews he slipped up said her daughter /out so Gerry was Madeleine your daughter or not .police took his laptop and found 2000children being abusedhe had book on how to hide a corpse they should of went to prison for neglectn
After £15million,Leicestershire cops/portugal cops/scotland yard/the pope/the prime minister/private detectives/millions of armchair detectives/ television/radio/newspapers/ internet social media/spin doctors AND not a snifter of that little girl, i think we can safely say that after 16 years shes almost 21year old never been to a doctors,casualty,hospital,dentist,school, come on whether they were involved or not that little girl is im afraid not coming home alive;;
Pedos are very quick they move very quickly. There was a case in America were a woman and her daughter went to a party, she let her small daughter go to the toilet, while she gone to the toilet, the woman stood talking to her friends and as the daughter was on her way back to her mother a strange man spoke to her and took her by the hand and walked out of the party, when the woman turned round to call her daughter she was no where to be seen the strange man quickly scooped her up and drove off with her in his car they never found the girl again it all happened as quick as lightning. So what I’m saying is, a pedofile, any opportunity they get whether it be perusal, or on the spare of the moment, will way up the situation, and like I say, they act very quickly so people should keep there eye on their kids without being too over protective and teach them not to speak to any stranger’s.
In shadows deep, a tale unfolds, Of a child lost, the world still holds. Madeline, a name whispered in despair, A story etched on hearts, heavy with care. A little girl, so innocent and bright, Her laughter danced in the moonlit night. With eyes that sparkled, like stars above, She captured our love, a beacon of love. In Portugal’s warmth, a family’s retreat, A holiday’s bliss, her destiny to meet. But fate stepped in with a cruel event, A precious life, so swiftly spent. Oh, little Madeline, we kinda know, In the silence, our questions still echo. Through the sands of time, we search and seek, For the truth, elusive, hauntingly bleak. The world united, hearts intertwined, In prayers and hope, we yearn to find The child who vanished, without a trace, Leaving a void, an empty space. Days turned to months, then years flew by, Yet the embers of hope refused to die. A mother’s tears, a father’s key, we search for answers, hoping for sweet Maddy, is resting safely. She became a symbol, a face of despair, A reminder to cherish, to handle with care, The innocence of youth, the precious light, That can disappear in the darkest of night. Though time has passed, the pain remains, The search for truth forever ingrains. In our hearts, little Madeline resides, A beacon of hope, where love abides. So, we hold her memory, gentle and dear, With every whispered prayer, every heartfelt tear. For in our souls, her spirit remains, Little Maddie, forever unchanged. Poem Written by Karen Wright, especially for Madeline, hoped safe, and sound tonight!
I dissagree…lts quite normal for children to sleep and children keep checking on them if they are a stone throw away.Thats actually not a crime.l personally wouldnt do it but they thought they had a safe system going.lt wasnt done for neglect. Is it any different from parents being at a party and children asleep upstairs and they keep a check on them. As l said l wouldn’t do it because l worry too much about the what ifs but lets not treat them as criminals because of it.
First, the kidnappers knew exactly when and where to abduct the child. Who could have been the source of such information. And second, if it was not an individual crime, most likely it was not a psychopaths deed, but a business opperation. She could have been sold, at the Middle East black market, where beautiful blondies are highly prized. If she is alive, she is there…
Please would all those saying Madeleine’s parents killed her provide solid and firm evidence of this and give that evidence to the police. Without such evidence, they should be given the benefit of the doubt and like everyone else, are presumed innocent until proven guilty. But with the McCanns, many people are saying they are guilty until proven innocent. That is wrong. The sad truth is that the truth about what happened to Madeleine will probably now never be known, as in the case of other young children missing for more than or nearly half a century ago who still have never been found and now overwhelmingly likely never will.
If they did something to the child, they would have said we woke up and found her missing, and not we left the kids alone while we were out enjoying dinner! The child was taken, but everyone hates on the fact the parents left them home alone, and bare in mind the are designed to deal with fact and not feelings as medical professionals!
To have a child stolen like Maddy was, it can only be pure agony and heartache for Kate and Gerry. Yes, it was wrong that the children were left unattended. Over the years it would be the if only we had’ve done this or that. To try and have a normal life would be nearly impossible. Kate, Gerry your children and families, I wish you all the very best. I’m sorry that you’ve lost little Maddy. I wish for peace ☮️ in your family. 😢❤
So sick of reading these comments and people blaming parents and NO ONE talks about AN ACTUAL PED*PHILE and a R*PIST who has so much evidence that it was him. Of course evidence could’ve been hidden well and destroyed after more than 10 years. And NOBODY mesntions him even the SLIGHTEST. Yall are disgrace of human beings protecting a P*DO and a R*PIST. Yall messed up
For crying out loud our little ( Mildly autistic ) son went missing for 20 minutes in a public park and we were bloody panicking! Mercifully he was found again but those 20 minutes seemed more like 20 years. The McCons ( Deliberate misspelling) just never acted like parents who’s nearest and dearest had gone missing.
She’s spot on, there is something wrong with parents that would leave their children unattended. I also remember when they interviewed the McCanns I thought to myself that there would be no way that I would be able to talk to the news so calmly and so soon after her disappearance. It’s a parent’s worst nightmare and the McCann’s did not seem genuine in their grief.
The Madelaine story captured the world’s attention, but none more so than her parents. Two highly educated professionals who holidayed in a strange country and left 3 little children in a room alone unsupervised while they dined with friends. WILFUL NEGLECT! no doubt. And to be funded for years through the highly connected circle of friends is suspicious at least. How many other children have gone missing in far less suspicious circumstances that had no voice no funding no media attention or very little. The whole story wreaks of “Something not right here”.
If I left my babies to go shopping to Tesco while they were sleeping, I’m sure Social Services would have something to say. It’s blatant neglect. I can’t comprehend it. I’m sorry but after years of feeling they were only guilty of that I feel now that the only solid evidence was towards them, she’s gone, never to be found, I believe she was sedated, she died, they wanted to keep their lives and children. It’s very simple. It’s a case with no real leads except toward the ignorant, negligent parents
I agree with you entirely. She was possibly given an overdose of the sedatives they used to keep them asleep. They never accepted any guilt, even to abandoning them. Good to hear someone speaking sense at long last about this. I have watched various language and body language experts who have said guilty.
Another fact I’ve recently come across on Profiling Evil podcast is that they had done that for 3-4 nights and the night before Madeline actually woke up screaming and crying when they got back, that’s why they decided to regularly check on the kids the following night. So either someone had noticed the pattern and took the opportunity or they as doctors administered a sedative to help her sleep more soundly but ended up giving her too much accidentally.
Parents are guilty 💯 imagine your child is missing and you decide to go for a run along the beach 🤔 and don’t go looking for your child!??! Why ???? Because they knew exactly what happened to her 💯 guilty as sin !!! And got away with it 😠 I just hope one day they get charged and the truth comes out!!
Peter hyatts Witness statement analysis work confirmed it for me ..he’s from America and works onside FBI CIA and Law enforcement and he’s an expert in patterns of speech, word selection body language and he trains other professionals in these techniques and he analysed some interviews and statements and concluded it was the parents
Sad thing is that if it had been a single mother of three from a council estate she would have been dragged through the courts. The Mcganns got an audience with the Pope!! The parents neglected their children. That is fact. As far as i remember, there was a toad and a swimming pool between the children and their parents, two things of danger. Why leave the kids alone? I’ve been on dozens of holidays where kids are running around until late and parents have small children in push chairs while they stay late at a restaurant or bar. There is a article from The Body Language Guy who looks at the Mcganns responses during an interview. Very interesting.
My late husband was mad keen on us going camping when our children were small . Even tho the site was family friendly I used to tie a length of cord around my ankle attached to the youngest son’s ankle incase anyone tried to sneak him out the tent at night ! I know that makes me sound a bit crazy but I wasn’t taking any chances . I also barely slept a wink all night .
I lived in Portugal at the time. I remember speaking to people about this case. From day one we all just said that the parents did it. My opinion has not changed. Parents who drug their kids and leave them alone while they go to socialize was something that was terrible and generally ignored by the press. If they had been working class and from Essex then the press would have never ignored these facts. As for ‘the truth will come to the surface’ – I really disagree with this statement. IMO this will never be resolved.
They always mentioned,”We were doing regular checks on the kids.” If I had to get up repeatedly to walk down the road to check on my children during dinner, I would literally rather take the dinner to go. Seeing the aerial view of the distance between where they would have actually been seated (not the entrance to the bar/pool) and the apartment shocked me. It was just too far in my opinion. The parents feeling the need to do the checks shows that they knew leaving the kids alone was not the safest option. Leaving any door unlocked to the apartment where you are leaving your 3 small children alone is not smart….at all. Bottom line is the whole thing is fishy and I’m not convinced of the parent’s innocence.
When we went to Greece and Tunisia with our 5 and six year olds, we, the adults adjusted our times to theirs, yes we would sit and enjoy a few drinks on our balcony in the evening but the kids were never out of our sight, why ? Because we loved them and it was a family holiday not a piss up with our mates
Not a shred of guilt at the fact they left their child alone and she was taken. They’re more interested in telling us how it wasn’t their fault and how great parents they were. They’ve had a defensive frame of mind no matter what way you look at it right from the get go. If I left just for example, my dog alone and she was taken I’d be torn apart with guilt thinking that it was my fault because I left her! These people wanted to be very sure they were not portraying guilt in any way shape or form. That leads me to believe they’re hiding something and not being truthful. In almost every interview I’ve seen, they’ve been more interested in defending themselves than finding their daughter. Imagine if people were accusing you of that and you had nothing to do with it? You’d tell them you don’t give a toss what they think and you only want to find your daughter! I wouldn’t give a f*ck about defending myself because it simply isn’t important! All that’s important is finding my daughter… it’s all just very suspicious in my opinion
The first thing my mother said about this on hearing it was they are the sort of parents who leave children alone to go out and enjoy themselves. Regardless of Dr. titles and professional qualifications that is “stupidity leading to neglect” in her book. And I have never found a reasonable parent who disagreed. But lets face if if the Police are deliberately not investigating its because the truth is already known.
100% agree with her. Many things stink about the whole thing. I remember seeing the gmtv report, and thought it wierd at the time, that they reported on it within a few hours of her missing. Kids go missing for days before you see reports. Even without the ‘abduction’ who the fuck leaves their young kids alone, especially abroad.
Totally agree. Also the fact that when everyone was out looking for Maddie…..the parents and some of the friends didn’t go looking for her!! I mean if that was my child I’d never sleep or stop till I found something. But they were seen on a balcony Gerry smiling away…whilst Maddie had supposedly been snatched! Sooooooo many questions that don’t add up. Plus like everyone has said…..the two best sniffer dogs in the world DO NOT LIE. Dogs don’t have an agenda or bias. I’d believe a dogs point of view over anything….
I still believe to this day that the parents are responsible for there daughters dissaperance. Two doctors don’t have the combined intelligence to know that you never leave three children aged 3 and under alone, especially in a foreign country and in a hotel. Also the fact that they give their children sedatives to make them sleep is also horrible. I watched so many documentary on this case and researched so much and the only conclusion I can come to is that her parents killed her by accident/or on purpose and hide the body away so she will never be found again. The reason for this is because when they bought the police dogs they sniffed blood in the room and in the family car which they probably used to move the body. Secondly when someone loses their baby girl in the middle of the night why would you stop looking for them and go to bed and fly out the next day a little suspicious if you ask me (if that was my child god forbid I wouldn’t leave until I find them). what else is really wired is the family has made millions from selling books and travel the world on private jets a little fishy if you ask me. The only suspects are her parents. – The McCanns left the little children alone even though there was a babysitting service available and Madeleine had previously cried and asked them where they had been. – There was no evidence of a break in or abduction. – Kate and Gerry admitted they did not search for Madeleine when she went missing. – Kate’s reaction to not finding Madeleine in the apartment was to shout “they’ve taken her”.
My heart goes out for Maddy but will never understand how they could leave these 3 kids unattended if you go on a family holiday then be prepared to have to stay in the resort and look after your kids if going out for dinner is such a big deal then they should have left the kids in the UK with their grandparents
No way would me and my wife leave our kids alone if my kids went missing when they were younger I would have been on the floor with a heart attack and been a nervous mental wreck for the rest of my life at the same time not leaving the area searching till I dropped the truth will prevail I still worry about my lads even though they are grown up your a parent for life
Interesting material. Firstly, if you don’t have anything to hide and your conscience is clean you don’t avoid answering questions that could help find your missing child. Secondly, sorry Darling but those people who say that Madeleine heard his Daddy outside the window and fell off the sofa are wrong. It’s the most unrealistic theory I’ve heard so far. The McCanns and the others are clever but not clever enough to come up so quickly with a story that lives on for 15 years now. Died at 9:15 pm? As Gerry says it’s ludicrous. Jane T. sighting, “coincidental” walk of TV producer, “coincidental” checking up on the kids bar Madeleine, hiding the body. I think it would be not enough time to achieve the feat and concoct the story. Why the dogs alerted behind the sofa? Because Madeleine might have been kept there in order not to distract her siblings. If she died in the apartment, which is very plausible along my other theory, it was around the time Kate took the shower. Please pay attention to the details she provides PJ with. She claims it was around 5 minutes. Even I take longer showers and with shaving my scarce beard it takes me around 25 minutes. Then read through her statement and you will find out that she dried up her hair later on in the evening. Unless I’m wrong and cannot read properly. A woman who cares so much about her image does it after such a long break. What the heck happened then in the meantime!? I’ll let you answer that. Finally, the UK Police don’t care about the truth otherwise they would have conducted a proper investigation and asked the right people the right questions.
What’s very strange is the cctv of Madelins and the group on the airport cctv with Gerry cursing in front of the kids going we are not here for a holiday? Why? Another thing is if it was an abduction for money why not leave a note? Why get into the room take madeline not wake the twins or take them as well and why didn’t they take the cuddle cat to calm her if she woke? Something was very odd from. The start? Also why did sky have the story the next few days saying the shutters were jemmied? Wouldn’t you want to protect the information that you put out in the public domain in case like they said she was still alive? Also I found it strange in the book the Paynes were sailing and they saw madelines group sailing but didn’t spot Madeline? Why where was she? Why pick Mark Warner as a holiday resort. There are some really weird inconsistencies in the story. Why would you leave your children alone on their first holiday in an apartment in a resort you had never been to? You wouldn’t leave a door open yourself. Also why leave the others in the group check the kids when you might not know if they had properly checked the room themselves? They seemed very relaxed about leaving them. Was Madeline even in bed thar night it looked like she hadn’t slept in the bed. Wouldn’t the sheets and bed be all creased from her wriggling from the heat? Also why wouldn’t you go and look everywhere that night despite the time and stay up till dawn to find her?
My father was a dentist and my mother had been a nurse, when they went out at night they used to give me sleeping pills when I was a young child! My mum was a very loving mother and would not have deliberately done anything to hurt me, however, she stopped this practice when her friend who had gone out and left their children alone came home to the house on fire and the children who sadly died. So medication to help your kids sleep is not so far fetched.
I was gob smacked from the start of this, you leave your children alone, why oh why not even the press said you left them alone, cause and effect tells you whatever happened to that little girl, the fact is if she hadn’t been left she would still be here today. It angers me so much this case. Thank you for confirming my feeling and enlightening me with some things I didn’t know
What puzzles me is that around 40+ kids get abducted in Britain but this case has to be publicised all the time. I told my wife a few years ago that it was strange how every 2 years a new culprit was found or a new turn in the investigation came around, and I was proved right,also this year when they suddenly started dredging a lake with straightaway loads of media attention and possibly having found evidence etc. After which again silence for probably another 2 years. Can anybody explain this?
Let’s have this right I can get the dates times etc …my ex an was accountant for 1 of the big 5 star hotel and spa chains 2 days after They got back from Portugal Mrs Macann was seen in this spa laughing and joking with her friends like she did not have a care in the world and all the staff were in shock,but they were not allowed (warned) not to make any comments or say a word to her…@ least 20 people were on shift that day so this story can be fact checked.I have also seen with my own eyes her name and signature in the spa log book…Absolutely vile humans Kate and Gerry should be in jail and have their other children removed.
My theory is that these selfish excuse of pathetic parents drugged their kids to sleep so they could go out and ‘enjoy’ their holiday and they gave poor Madeline too much and killed her, they panicked and hid the body. That is pure speculation on my behalf but it is what makes most sense. The whole thing stinks. They even left Portugal the country their baby girl was missing in what sort of parent could leave.
I think the parents were totally involved and generally agree with the sedative theory. However, when wealthy, connected people are immune from investigation, and not named as possible suspects, that brings up more questions. I always wonder why powerful people seem to have a missing or dead loved one connected to them. What kind of community are they involved with? Why do their careers seem to get a boost after a child or spouse dies? It’s all right out there for us to see, but that is never addressed. And to get deeper into my point, why was there a police sketch with two men that looked like the Podesta brothers? One of whom uses known pedo comms in his emails, and the other who collects artwork depicting abused children? Also, where is the focus on the known trafficker who was living there at the site in Portugal? What are the McCann’s connections to them, if any? Are there other children that have gone missing from that area of Portugal? It’s easy to brush these questions off as tinfoil, but if it was your child, wouldn’t you ask every question?
You are right to be suspicious of lie detector tests, Sonia – I joined a jewelry manufacturer who had had a theft of gold a few months before I arrived. Yet I was the only employee who failed the lie detector test – I presume because I found it extremely nerve-wracking, despite there being ZERO chance that I was the thief !!!
Once Scotland Yard agreed to review the case there was no further need for a Find Maddie fund. So why does it still exist? Whatever was in the fund st thst time shoukd have veen given ton the government. And notice that the McCanns never offered to sell their large expensive house, live somewhere much smaller and cheaper to maintain then use the profit/ savings to top up the fund. Maybe because they know for certain she’ll never be found. Or maybe they value their material possessions more than their missing daughter. I’d love for someone to ask them that question.
I momentarily lost my son in a shop when he was about 6/7 and I was absolutely frantic, fortunately we found him minutes later hiding and crawling around under a clothes rail. I consider myself a very level headed person and one that’s proven to be able to work under pressure having been a social worker for 26 years seven of which was in child protection so I’m no shrinking violet but when your own child is missing your Adrenalin levels go through the roof so I fail to see how the McCaans remained so calm unless of course they already knew the outcome before it started???🤷🏻♂️🤷🏻♂️🤷🏻♂️
My mummy and daddy have never left me a alone if we went somewhere just an hour outside the city i wasnt allowed to leave their sight. Id always be held hands with them or told to stay beside them at all times even now as a 14 year old whenever we go somewhere im always standing side bye side with them
Regardless of what has happened to that poor little girl the question that needs to be asked is.. Why are the british police covering for them? Why did they get so much help? This bothers me the most! They are either part of something bigger and sinister or they have information on high profile people which would prompt officials to run ragged around the Mccans to cover it all up
Essentially Gerry and Kate saved their own skins, their careers and custody of their other 2 children. The Tapas 9 backed them up, incredibly, and continue to do so. That’s some loyalty. I’d say Maddie was hyper-active, I know 2 other IVF kids who both are incredibly hyper-active, so she was routinely sedated. Kate dropped the kids into the creche in the day from what I’ve read, I wonder if she had issues bonding with the kids, maybe why she comes across as quite cold and not very caring. Maddie could have died a day before possibly, maybe not on the night in question, and they could have disposed of her body down a deep well or in the ocean by the night of the alleged abduction. It’s clear Maddie is dead, poor soul, and that this is a cover up, so plain to see. If now the heat is on this guy in Germany who clearly has serious mental health issues/ personality disorders, and the crime is being falsely pinned on him then that really is an injustice and horribly wrong.
one thing iv noticed since march 2020 (start of lockdown) is the planes at night especially around 2am everynight in the uk i hear highpowered planes flying over, theres times when theres 2 planes very loud, i dont think these r normal holiday aeroplanes simply because i have never noticed not once the sound an aeroplane makes … we see them, we dont hear them, i live close to an airport but this noise still makes no sense at all to me .
