Were The McCann Phones Hacked Too?

Were The McCann Phones Hacked Too?

November 17, 2011 10:06 AM

Gerry McCann is to give evidence to the Leveson inquiry and describe how his wife Kate felt "mentally raped" when details of her diary were published.

The diary, written after Madeleine's disappearance, was leaked from the Portuguese Police files.

But will he tell of the couple's fears they may have had their phones hacked as well?

Certainly, the couple's spokesman Clarence Mitchell has talked to the Yard's hacking squad about his phone possibly being hacked, concerns apparently backed up by his network which found suspicious activity around his mobile.

I understand there is so far no hard evidence that Clarence's phone was hacked, but why hack his and not Kate's and Gerry's?

And it won't escape the cops' notice, surely, that if any McCann phone messages were intercepted, it can only have been after "the one rogue reporter" Clive Goodman was jailed and, according to the News of the World, phone hacking stopped.

Clive went to jail in late January, 2007. Nobody had heard of the McCanns until just over three months later when Madeleine vanished.

Just a thought, but I wonder if Kate felt 'visually raped' when her husband suggested she pose for the journalists in her swimsuit, right after Maddie was allegedly abducted? Or am I being vulgar and crass suggesting such a thing? Were The McCann Phones Hacked Too? - Martin Brunt blog 181154

But there is no money compensation for kate to say that. - everything is about MONEY to them.
Had she done as gerry suggested and was visually raped by the public she wont complain because she would have got paid for it.

Remember how she prostitutes herself for Sun's front page spread in that floral frock for her bewk's launch, pretending to be a teenager when she was just a sheep in lamb's clothing! That makes my skin crawl. Can anyone ever remember any authoress launching their book in that fashion? Not even jk rowling or princess diana did that!

I bet there's a coded message in Martin Brunt's blog, otherwise what is the purpose of that article?

If she felt mentally raped for that, what on earth induced her to herself publish all those personal, embarrassing details about her private life in her book? How on earth does knowing about her sex life help "the search"?

I can't help feeling that Martin Brunt has some sort of allegiance to Robert Murat

sex sells books and that means MONEY.

She was 'robbed' rather than 'mentally raped' when her diary was leaked to the media because she didn't get any money out of publication, the paper did.
