A FORMER British detective has praised an Olive Press exclusive on a possible spotting of Madeleine McCann on a flight from Ibiza, which was followed up in over a dozen countries.
Former Met officer Ian Horrocks praised the quick thinking of reader Frank Bode, whose claims were followed up by numerous national newspapers, including Bild in Germany, the Mirror in the UK and Diario de Noticias in Portugal.
German businessman Bode was so convinced he had spotted the youngster with a German family on the flight from Ibiza to Munich a fortnight ago that he contacted police, the family and the Olive Press, after taking a [You must be registered and logged in to see this link.].
Bode claimed that the girl was British and did not seem to ‘fit with the family’.
Both Maddie’s family in the UK and detective Horrocks, a former kidnap and ransom squad officer, praised his actions. Scotland Yard is still investigating the claims.
Horrocks believes that the longer Madeleine has been missing, the more likely it is that people will spot her.
He said: “It has previously been said, ‘Who is going to openly walk out with the world’s most wanted child?”
“This was clearly relevant in the days, weeks and months following her abduction but, as time has gone by, whoever took Madeleine is likely to be more confident about taking her out in public,” he added.
The sighting ties in with claims of psychic healer Carol Everett, who has worked on finding both missing people and criminals on the run.
The Murcia-based psychic claimed in 2007 that she could ‘see’ Madeleine with a German-speaking couple.
Speaking to The Olive Press this week, she reiterated her claims: “My prediction has been there from day one, I haven’t changed my claims.
“I’m not a detective, I just put my points in the pot and very often come up with the missing links.”
She continued: “I can’t say that it’s her, but it certainly fits. A German family with two other children.”
Madeleine’s mother, Kate McCann has previously claimed that no matter how many years go by she would never fail to recognise her eldest daughter.
“I know I would, I just know that if she came in here now I would know it was her.”
Over the next couple of months two libel trials are expected to be heard regarding the case.
In one, the McCann family are taking retired lawyer Tony Bennett to court in the UK, while in Portugal, former detective Goncalo Amaral, is being tried over claims in a book that she was killed by her parents.

Dr Martin Roberts: "The evidence is that these are the pjyamas Madeleine wore on holiday in Praia da Luz. They were photographed and the photo handed to a press agency, who released it on 8 May, as the search for Madeleine continued. The McCanns held up these same pyjamas at two press conferences on 5 & 7June 2007. How could Madeleine have been abducted?"

One comment on the story in the Olive Press from 'Pam'.
From the saccharine sentiments expresses it must be the ubiquitous Pam Gurney.
Article mentions the two pending court cases but conveniently omits to mention Amaral has won last two rounds and Mccann appeals becoming vexacious.

It is interesting that the two court cases are mentioned; as far as I know, they haven't been in the British media. Possibly some people might be motivated to find out what they are about.
Yes Pauline as I've just mentioned on another topic, I'm sure that's Pam Gurney who's commented.

The worst thing about the Olive Press is that it gives a bad name to olives, one of nature's finest gifts.

Re: POLL: Who comes out worst from the 'HORROCKS backs OLIVE PRESS' story?
How is psychic or medium's claim relevant?
There are also those who claimed Maddie is dead.
If Police give credence to psychic's mumbo jumbo which direction are they going to investigate - the elusive phantom or madeleine parents?
It's funny that Carol Everett didn't come out with her conviction of belief earlier to the Police. Why now?
How did she know OP has a sighting story to run, or should I say how did OP know Carol Everett has a vision that they can include in Frank Bode's Story? Who found who? Is this just another freaky coincidence?
At least National News has the sense to report the two trials along side this bogus sighting so people can see it for what it is - just smoke and mirror.

Carol Everett claims to have helped solve crimes for the police and is yet another psychic who claims to have helped with the Soham murders

Ah say boy... Are you serious boy!!!
I wrote the following email to the Editor of the Olive Press...
Hi Jon
I am writing to you regarding your reporting of sightings of Madeleine McCann in Germany and In Ibiza which is laughable for reasons that you will no doubt be aware of. I am an expatriate living in Spain running a business and was recently approached by your advertising department to consider using the Olive Press to promote my company's services. I was seriously considering a 6 month advertising campaign with what I thought to be a serious journal. Now that I see that you promote fantasy Mickey Mouse reportage I am no longer interested in using the Olive Press.
Before you print nonsense consider the effect it has on your readership, by jumping on the tabloid bandwagon you will not only lose readership you will also get hit where it hurts most "in the pocket." If you are running a serious business, you should get serious ABOUT THAT BUSINESS. Can you supply me with the email address for the owner(s) of the Olive Press so that I can copy them in on this email correspondence also.
