Karen Matthews should have had a word with Kevin Halligan, first. He succeeded in "scamming" the Madeleine Fund out of £300,000?

Really? 

Why is this in the news? 
Why not talk about Kevin oh sorry Richard Halligen and the other bogus detectives the McCanns freely handed money over (donated from the generous public) to fund a search for Madeleine, a search that was, in my opinion just for "appearances" ?

Time to keep Shannon Matthews out of it,poor child needs to live her life! 

As for Karen or Kate Matthews, whatever she likes to be called now, time served! Ok so half of it, but at least time served for her part in the crime!

Evil Karen Matthews 'tried to dupe Kate and Gerry McCann into handing over £25,000 from Madeleine's fund' 


  • McCann believed Matthews' 9-year-old daughter Shannon had been kidnapped 

  • Shannon disappeared in 2008, less than a year after Madeleine, was snatched

  • Man claiming to represent Matthews visited the McCann's home to demand cash

The parents of missing Madeleine McCann were almost duped into handing over £25,000 from their charity to Karen Matthews.
Kate and Gerry McCann believed Matthews' 9-year-old daughter Shannon had vanished and were planning to send money to the search effort in Dewsbury, West Yorkshire.
Shannon disappeared in 2008, less than a year after Madeleine, three, was snatched from a holiday apartment in Portugal.

It is believed the Matthews hatched the plan after they saw the McCann's raise more than £1million in the search for their daughter

A source close to Mrs McCanns, 48, told The Sun: 'She was deeply upset by Shannon's abduction and felt sorry for the family. She wanted to help.'
A man claiming to represent Matthews even visited the McCann's home in Leicestershire to demand money. 
But it was all a rouse as Matthews had drugged her daughter and hidden her at the house of friend Michael Donovan.
Shannon was found by police in the base of a divan bed 24 days after she went missing.

Since this attempted scam happened over 8 years ago, is this the first time we've heard of it? Did the McCanns give a description of this scumbag to the police? If they did, why wasn't an e-fit circulated by the media to catch them? If not, why not?  Turning up at the McCanns home-presumably unexpectedly- and "demanding" money hardly seems like the best strategy if they wished to succeed.

Good question especially as we have read in the past that they have panic buttons installed at their home.

IIRC this story was in the papers last year.

We have known about this for 8 years.
The famous quote at the time - when they were sent away empty handed was "But we've come all the way from Dewsbury . . .!"

So a rubbish and re-hashed story
BUT
Why is it here.  Matthews is out, and free. 


So It can only be to keep the pressure on the McCanns, in the weeks leading up to the 10th anniversary, on 29th April, though I expect the McCanns will celebrate it 4 days later.

Slightly off-topic, but I was wondering what else happened on Sunday 29th April, apart from the 'Last Photo' being taken at 2.29pm. Or was it 1.29pm?

So far I've found these four references:

---------------------------------------------------------------


1. Turkish people protest against Islam

2007 Turkey Turkish protest in support of secularism 29th April 2007 : Hundreds of thousands of Turks have rallied in Istanbul in support of the country's secularism, amid rows on one of their presidential candidate's Islamic roots. The protesters are concerned that the ruling party's candidate, Abdullah Gul, is too loyal to Islam. Gul, himself, has said he would not quit, despite growing criticism from his opponents and from the army.

2. Iranian hairdressers told: ‘Don’t do Western haircuts’…Mobile religious police units to patrol the streets

2007 Iran Iran bans Western hairstyles 29th April 2007 : Iranian police have been warning barbers not to give men Western hairstyles, or to use make-up on them. This is part of a fierce crackdown on what is known as bad hijab, or un-Islamic clothing. Iranian television has said that the crackdown on un-Islamic clothing has started its next phase, in which mobile police units will patrol Tehran in search of those who do not observe Islamic dress sense. Tehran's public prosecutor has suggested that women who violate dress rules should be exiled from the capital, and forced to live in remote areas of the country.

3. Give it to me’ was a hit in the United States

It was Sunday, under the sign of Taurus. The US president was George W. Bush (Republican). In that special week of April people in US were listening to Give It To Me by Timbaland. Spider-Man 3, directed by Sam Raimi, was one of the most viewed movies released in 2007 while The Secret by Rhonda Byrne was one of the best-selling books.

4. His Holiness Pope Benedict XVI, who totally failed to deal with paedophile priests, created a whole lot more priests, all of whom are not allowed by the Roman Catholic Church to marry

ORDINATION OF NEW PRIESTS FOR THE DIOCESE OF ROME
HOMILY OF HIS HOLINESS BENEDICT XVI
St Peter's Basilica
 

Fourth Sunday of Easter, 29 April 2007

Venerable Brothers in the Episcopate and the Presbyterate,
Dear Ordinandi,
Dear Brothers and Sisters,


Today, the Fourth Sunday of Easter traditionally known as "Good Shepherd Sunday", has a special significance for us who are gathered in this Vatican Basilica. It is an absolutely unique day especially for you, dear deacons, upon whom, as Bishop and Pastor of Rome, I am pleased to confer priestly Ordination. In this way you join our "presbyterium".

Together with the Cardinal Vicar, the Auxiliary Bishops and the priests of the Diocese, I thank the Lord for the gift of your priesthood which enriches our Community with 22 new Pastors.

The theological density of the brief Gospel passage which has just been proclaimed helps us to perceive better the meaning and value of this solemn Celebration.

Jesus speaks of himself as the Good Shepherd who gives eternal life to his sheep (cf. Jn 10: 28). This image of the shepherd is deeply rooted in the Old Testament and dear to Christian tradition. The Prophets attributed to David the title: "Shepherd of Israel", which hence possesses an indisputable messianic importance (cf. Ex 34: 23).

Jesus is the true Shepherd of Israel, since he is the Son of Man who desired to share the condition of human beings to give them new life and lead them to salvation.

Significantly, the Evangelist adds to the term "shepherd" the adjective kalós, good, which he only uses with reference to Jesus and his mission. In the account of the Wedding at Cana, the adjective kalós is also used twice to signify the wine offered by Jesus, and it is easy to see it as a symbol of the good wine of messianic times (cf. 2: 10).

"I give them (that is, to my sheep) eternal life and they shall never perish" (Jn 10: 28). These are the words of Jesus, who had said a little earlier, "the good shepherd lays down his life for his sheep" (cf. Jn 10: 11).

John uses the verb tithénai - to offer, which he repeats in the following verses (cf. 15, 17, 18). We find the same verb in the Last Supper narrative when Jesus "laid aside his garments" in order to "take" them back later (cf. Jn 13: 4, 12).

Thus, it is clear that the intention is to affirm that the Redeemer has absolute freedom to do with his life as he chooses and thereby give it up or take it back freely.

Christ is the true Good Shepherd who gave his life for his sheep, for us, sacrificing himself on the Cross. He knows his sheep and his sheep know him, just as the Father knows him and he knows the Father (cf. Jn 10: 14-15).

This is not a matter of mere intellectual knowledge but of a profound, personal relationship: a knowledge of the heart, of one who loves and one who is loved; of one who is faithful and one who knows how to be trustworthy.

It is a knowledge of love, by virtue of which the Pastor invites his sheep to follow him and which is fully manifest in the gift of eternal life that he offers to them (cf. Jn 10: 27-28).

Dear Ordinandi, may the certainty that Christ does not abandon us and that no obstacle can prevent the accomplishment of his universal plan of salvation be a cause of constant consolation - also in difficulties - and steadfast hope for you. The Lord's goodness is always with you, and it is powerful.

The Sacrament of Orders, which you are about to receive, will make you sharers in the very mission of Christ; you will be called to scatter the seed of his Word, the seed that carries in itself the Kingdom of God; to dispense divine mercy and to nourish the faithful at the table of his Body and Blood.

To be his worthy ministers, you must ceaselessly nourish yourselves with the Eucharist, source and summit of Christian life.

In approaching the altar, your daily school of holiness, of communion with Jesus, of the way of entering into his sentiments in order to renew the sacrifice of the Cross, you will increasingly discover the richness and tenderness of the love of the divine Teacher, who today is calling you to a closer friendship with him.

If you listen docilely to him, if you follow him faithfully, you will learn to express in your life and in your pastoral ministry his love and his passion for the salvation of souls.

With Jesus' help, dear Ordinandi, each one of you will become a Good Shepherd, ready, if necessary, to lay down your life for him.

Thus it was at the beginning of Christianity with the first disciples, while as we heard in the First Reading the Gospel continued to be disseminated amid consolations and difficulties.

It is worth stressing the last words in the passage from the Acts of the Apostles which we have heard:  "The disciples were filled with joy and with the Holy Spirit" (13: 52).

Despite the misunderstandings and disagreements, about which we have heard, the apostle of Christ does not lose joy; indeed, he is a witness of that joy which flows from being with the Lord and from love for him and for the brothers and sisters.

On today's World Day of Prayer for Vocations, whose theme this year is: "The vocation to the service of the Church as communion", let us pray that all who are chosen to such a lofty mission may be accompanied by the prayerful communion of all the faithful

Let us pray that in every parish and Christian community attention to vocations and to the formation of priests will increase:  it begins in the family, continues at the seminary and involves all who have at heart the salvation of souls.

Dear brothers and sisters who are taking part in this evocative celebration, and in the first place you, relatives, family members and friends of these 22 deacons who will shortly be ordained priests!

Let us surround these brothers of ours in the Lord with our spiritual solidarity. Let us pray that they may be faithful to the mission to which the Lord is calling them today and ready to renew their "yes" to God, their "here I am", every day without reserve.

And let us ask the Lord of the harvest on this Day for Vocations to continue to bring forth many holy priests who are totally dedicated to the service of the Christian people.

At this most solemn and important moment of your life, dear Ordinandi, I once again address you with affection. On this day Jesus repeats to you:  "I no longer call you servants, but friends". Welcome and nurture this divine friendship with "Eucharistic love"!

May Mary, the heavenly Mother of priests, accompany you. May she who beneath the Cross united herself with the Sacrifice of her Son and after the Resurrection accepted together with the other disciples the gift of the Spirit, help you and each one of us, dear brothers in the priesthood, to allow ourselves to be inwardly transformed by God's grace.

Only in this way is it possible to be faithful images of the Good Shepherd; only in this way can we carry out joyfully the mission of knowing, guiding and loving the flock which Jesus acquired at the price of his blood. Amen.

So who exactly was this man? Presumably it wasn't Donovan, or the McCanns would since have recognised him. And the police would have recognised the description of anyone else from Dewsbury who was close to Karen Matthews.

It could have been anyone, not even connected to the investigation. Just someone pointing out to the McCanns that Karen Matthews could do with some of the help they had benefitted from. 

This was a massive police operation in Yorkshire which cost millions. Would the police really have just let this man go, without even circulating a description, if they thought he was part of a plot alongside Matthews and Donovan?

Gross misrepresentation when they should know better?
 
Is this worthy of a formal complaint to the IPCC or is it pointless?
 
If the friends, spokesman and CM are (mis)representing the fund as a charity, which we all know it’s not, maybe the Charity Commission would also like to get involved.

Sunday again - another day another dollar in the world of journalism.

 MADDIE MCCON Kate and Gerry McCann were almost scammed out of £25,000 by evil Karen Matthews _70484918_untitled-1

Madeleine McCann:  Crimewatch response overwhelming

15th October 2013

Police probing the disappearance of Madeleine McCann in Portugal say there was an "overwhelming response" to an appeal on the BBC's Crimewatch, with almost 1,000 calls and emails.

Officers suggested the 2007 case bore hallmarks of a "pre-planned abduction".

Scotland Yard said it was also looking into possible links to burglaries and bogus charity collections in the area.

http://www.bbc.com/news/uk-24530186

Bogus charity collections go with the territory it would seem.

Reverting to todays Mail report..

A spokesman for the McCann's said charity trustees [it's not a charity, it's a limited company] were tipped off when they contacted police about who they should make a cheque out to.

Clarence Mitchell told the Sun: 'Police advised us not to hand over money. We heard things had come to light in investigations.

'It is beyond belief anyone could've sought to exploit poor Madeleine's plight.'  [splutter !!!]

http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-4282378/Karen-Matthews-tried-dupe-McCanns-25-000.html

Hands up anyone who believes the McCanns (emphasis on Kate McCann again) would so readily hand over their hard earned scammed cash.

I detect a whiff of desperation.

I submitted a comment to the Daily Mail Online, stating, accurately, that the Madeleine Fund is not a charity, but a limited company. As usual I didn't get past the 'moderators', AKA 'censors'. DM allows me to comment on trivia, but never on this case. All serves to confirm (if confirmation be needed) that the MSM is in on the scam.

That's '40' percent of his 'former salary' of £70,000 per annum.

£28,000 per annum, as a 'retainer' FROM the, publicly 'donated' to, Find Madeleine Fund

He was 'supposedly' DUMPED, by 'e-mail', by K&G McCan't  towards the end of last year, 2016.

So, if my math is correct, (8 years @£28,000 a year)  CM has 'received', personally, from the Find Madeleine Fund, at 'least' almost....................£224,000!

Yes, that's almost TWO HUNDRED AND TWENTY FOUR THOUSAND POUNDS, (£224,000) for him, personally........FROM the Find Madeleine Fund!

Imo, it's the 'donators' to that 'fund' that have been 'exploited'!

Including, I might add, a group of handicapped children, who donated, in the 'belief', to the FMF, 'believing' their donation was to be, SOLELY used, to 'search for Madeleine'!

NOT 'line' CM's POCKET!

He could always PUBLICLY 'refute' my 'figures', couldn't he?

'Sod it', let him 'sue' me!

(Does CM 'include himself' in the 'anyone' who 'sought' to EXPLOIT Madeleine's 'plight'?)

Rhetorical!

"Bogus charity collectors ".    spit coffee

The only " bogus charity " collectors are those selling " good quality wristbands !

Has anyone ever seen anybody wearing one ? I certainly haven't !

Whiff of desperation , it stinks and it ain't seabass or rotten meat !

Poor twins , they must dread the daily papers knowing their parents are putting themselves out there again . Same for Shannon and her siblings !
In my humble opinion a form of child abuse .

Can anyone guess what next week's headlines are going to be?

How about ........

Gerry and Kate planned to donate most of the rest of the McCann fund to [insert worthy cause] 
(before Portuguese Courts forced them to pay court costs)

I have seen one comment this morning on the DM site that the McCann fund is a limited company.

Madeleine McCann’s parents Kate and Gerry were stopped by police from giving £250,000 to help search for then-missing Shannon Matthews, it has been revealed.

big grin Like they needed the police to stop them giving £250,000 to someone else unless it was someone like the money laundering expert Kevin Halligen who they never sued.

They almost didn't go out and leave Maddie and the twins but THEY DID.

They almost gave this terrible fraudster 25 grand but THEY DIDN'T.

"A source close to Mrs McCann ,48, told The Sun 'She was deeply upset by Shannon's abduction and felt sorry for the family. She wanted to help."

As with the other recent articles trying to show what a hero Gerry is in saving lives, the main message of this latest DM story is to paint Mrs McCann in a good light trying to show what a good, caring person she is and deflect from the damaging content of the Supreme Court judgment. 

Blatant media manipulation and reputation management.

Oh Karen, how could you? And after they inspired you and all

I wonder if the McCanns realised that Karen tried to copy them and offered her a payout to end her case and move it away from public attention.  I wouldn't be at all surprised as this publicity was doing the McCann case no good.

"Blatant media manipulation and reputation management.And to show everyone that she is worthy of being an Ambassador for Missing People."
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

Where to 'start'?

"She wanted to HELP'.......................But SHE didn't 'want to HELP' the PJ in their investigation, into HER 'missing' daughter, did she?
-----------------------------------------------------

"Mrs McCann in a good light trying to show what a good, caring person she is....." .............................But not very good at, and caring for, HER three year old daughter, who SHE 'left' at great risk of 'harm', from 'whatever', while SHE went 'out' with her 'friends'!
---------------------------------------------

"......to show everyone that she is worthy of being an Ambassador for Missing People."

The ONLY 'Ambassador for Missing People' AND 'relative of a missing person' (afaik) who has said, on record, she 'WAS GLAD', the investigation, into HER 'missing' child, 'WAS CLOSED'!

The ONLY 'Ambassador for Missing People' AND 'relative of a missing person' (afaik) who has said, on record, 'whether the case (into HER 'missing' daughter) is re-opened, or not, it doesn't matter'
----------------------------------------------------

istbc on 'all of my points above'.

Anyone notice the Daily Mail tried to reignite the Karen Matthews / Kate McCann argument yesterday, in an article about Karen going out for burger and chips? The commenters didn't pick up on it though, instead most showed some sympathy towards Karen Matthews situation, currently being hounded every day by the Daily Mail.

Yes I noticed that - with the emphasis on McDonalds AND Burger King.

How very dare she go out for lunch.

She's done the crime, done the time.
