i said a long time ago that some poor girl is gonna get hurt by a crank -- all these sightings need to stop -- some poor girl as they get older and are on their own could get snatched -- and all because of this shite thats in the press

They don't care about collateral damage to any other person, so long as a story benefits them.

Something to ponder.

When it is proven Maddie died in apartment 5a is it possible that all those people who have had their lives intruded upon, photos splashed across the media and strangers claiming their child is Maddie can file a suit against the mccanns, the tapas 7 and the pink princess for harrassment, assault, stalking, filing false police reports re:sightings and so on.

Due to the deception by the above named, their lives have been dramatically changed, allegations have been made, the finger of suspicion pointed at them and unnecessary samples taken in the quest for a child who was known to have been dead st the time of the alleged sighting.

I also wonder if every police force who has been embroiled in this fiasco of false sightings etc can also charge the group and the pink princess with filing false police reports, obstruction of justice, wasting police time and so on.

I would hope so, realising the amount of possible jail time faced, plus fines plus refunding police costs wasted on searching for a child known to be dead (think casey anthony) it might be enough to make one or two of the motley crew to think again.

Everyone who searched, all the organisations that searched, locals and holiday makers who gave up their time and effort could all have a claim on them, all those who donated to the fund could also file a class action claiming the money was obtained by deception, they donated to find a live child not a dead one, any services the group got also obtained by deception then all the money they obtained fraudulently from the media. it soon mounts up, bankruptcy facing them all including the pink princess.

They will be unemployable, even as shelf stackers in the local supermarket, all will lose their licences to practice.

not to mention the people they have pointed the finger at over the years of being swathy man -- its ok for the mcanns to name names but others doing the same its a big no no -- how does that work

by russiandoll 05.02.13 22:11

I am rather tired with so much reading on and off today. Am I getting this right..........the parents of a girl in NZ have consented to a DNA sample being taken from their child [ presumably to put to rest speculation that she is NOT Madeleine McCann ]?

So under duress ......just because she looks like [allegedly] a missing child , proof that she is not that child is needed ?
What happens if the response to this request was no? Please do not tell me we have reached the stage where it can be enforced..
But then if they say no the attention will never go away.
What a situation to be in.

The world truly has gone mad.

by cass7 05.02.13 22:18

just by giving consent -- they have nothing to hide --so as far as the police are concerned that should have been the end of it -- omg the police wont think that even if madeleine was abducted she would still be alive and well

Oh well. Can't say I'm surprised that the British press have now picked up on this story Maddie 'look-alike' DNA to go to the UK from Queenstown - Page 2 619981

by aiyoyo 06.02.13 3:34

If I were the girl's mum the Police would have to drag me to court to prove my daughter is Maddie, and not for me to prove my daughter is not Maddie.

There is not enough expletive to describe the mccanns for having allowed this charade hence harrassement of innocent children to continue.

This has to be one of the daftest stories yet!

by ShuBob 06.02.13 11:57

It's just unbelievable and shows the utter desperation of the couple that a story which was discredited only recently has now resurfaced and is saturating the media in an attempt to drown out the fact they want to send Tony to jail! When will Scotland Yard stand up and dismiss these stories?

by littlepixie 06.02.13 13:09

My thoughts as well. Scotland Yard are letting themselves be made a mockery out of.

by russiandoll 06.02.13 14:34

Well , there it is in black and white..not a line of enquiry. I would like to think that SY have spoken to the family and the family are so sick of the speculation and how it is affecting them, that they have asked for DNA to be taken to put the lid on the rumours.
There is a touch of not being 100% certain about it though....a little bit of the tabloidspeak imo re- foreign police forces and their conclusions not being quite good enough. I do not think for one minute SY have this attitude. The newspapers are fond of printing stuff allegedly said by SY... but there is rarely a direct quote.

p.s can the thread title be changed please, it is not DNA from Maddie being taken, it is from a girl in NZ who allegedly resembles her.

A potato that looked like Jimmy Hoffa ! LOL david-uk! BTW, Maddie 'look-alike' DNA to go to the UK from Queenstown - Page 2 110921

was he wearing a jacket?

by iamalurker 06.02.13 15:04

I like the last sentence in the Sky news report.

" In 2011, a young girl spotted in India with a Belgian man and French woman was tested and was ALSO found not to be Madeleine "

They know you know.

by T4two 06.02.13 15:11

Surely every sighting can be used as a cause for doubting the hypothesis that Madeleine is dead because traces of a corpse were located by specialist dogs in immediately outside the apartment and in the hire car. Perhaps one should step back and take a look at this from the point of view of bringing a prosecution without a body and then ask oneself whether it makes sense to follow up every single sighting and document the findings that unequivocally rules each of them out?

No . But it is reported they sent the skin for DNA testing. Mrs

by **PeterMac** 06.02.13 15:17

You have to admit Clarence Mitchell's timing of the release of this story was impeccable.
Exactly at the moment that TB is saying there is credible evidence that M died 5 years ago, there is another report, of the same alleged sighting which has happened several times, to the same girl, but this time the story is complete with DNA, which will of course take weeks, so the result will never be published.
Just like the India story, which was clearly made up from start to finish. But which papers have the interest to follow it up ?

by russiandoll 06.02.13 15:18

very amusing re the jacket spud !

reading this from Sky...they seem satisfied this is not Maddie.

" In 2011, a young girl spotted in India with a Belgian man and French woman was tested and was also found not to be Madeleine."

and the Telegraph needed a proof -read as they lack respect..

" British police requested the sample after the latest reported sighting
of McCann in New Zealand, nearly six years after she went missing while
holidaying with her family in Portugal at the age of three. "

maybe just me, but I detect a bored, weary tone in this reporting. They must be sick of having to print this bilge.

by russiandoll 06.02.13 15:51

sorry....have posted something identical to what was posted earlier...too late to edit and delete.

re the Mirror, their heading suggests they have been informed this is probably not Maddie

lots of comments here

http://uk.news.yahoo.com/madeleine-lookalike-sends-dna-sample-police-053531400.html

a thought : surely the first thing was/is to check the DNA for a match with the claimed biological parents in NZ? If this is being done why any need for it to come to the UK?
