There is lots more in the google archives,
But please be careful. Some of it is potentially libellous.
He crossed a number of heavy duty people when he was an "investigative" journalist
and they didn't like it.

Apparently, Garry Peter Leigh, who wrote the above piece posted by Verdi, was killed in a cycling accident in Marbella a few months later.

It's not called the Costa del Crime for nothing - the appellation is well earned.
A haven for immigrants who made their wealth through crime and other quasi-legal activities.
Funnily enough, I found the article whilst searching the Olive Press archives - M. Clarke has certainly stuck a finger or two in some mucky pies over the years.
Interesting though, in the Olive Press archives there is no report by Jon Clarke about the case of Madeleine McCann, that I could see, prior to the reported nonsense from Barcelona - the year 2010 if memory serves me well.
Certainly an eye opener as to how the press conduct their daily business. Reportage over the years about Gonçalo Amaral, by way of example, has been scandalous - to put it mildly.

From memory the first OP piece was 28th October 2007 (or September) a suspicious 6 months after he started writing exclusively of the Sun with Lazzeri and Kandohla and others.
Bearing in mind that his own paper the OP was brand new, and he even says so in one o the later articles, it is surprising that he didn't publish stuff there first, and have it syndicated the next day.
So we must deduce that a fairly tightly binding contract existed.
Subsequent to that stuff appeared in the OP and was immediately quoted in the Sun and then syndicated to Mail and Express, and even, sadly, to the Telegraph.
