Re: Oooh..errr Has AR actually been very clever.
That's a very good question, the answer to which, I suspect, would also tell us why the establishment have been involved from almost the moment that Madeleine disappeared. It could also be that they were trying to persuade their Portugese counter parts to get involved in framing a patsy (or that, despite the Mets rhetoric, they are investigating Madeleine's murder or manslaughter)candyfloss wrote:Have a sleep on it and then come back and tell my why our Criminal Prosecution Service would get involved if they weren't thinking of prosecuting anyone in the UK.AndyB wrote:Sorry if this comes across as rude but I'm very tired now (and getting very frustrated).

It carries a hefty penalty so I believe.

Re: Oooh..errr Has AR actually been very clever.
Only if Joe had been having sex with children, which is now another one of the few offences committed abroad that can be tried in the UK. I think the change in the law that you're referring to was the offences against the person act. There is no blanket law that gives GB jurisdiction everywhere.Prehensile wrote:I may be wrong but wasn't there a law brought in a few years back which allowed the UK to prosecute Joe Bloggs from London if he had committed a crime abroad.

Again...
In both a company limited by shares and one limited by guarantee, the people running the company (the directors) will only incur any personal liability for the company's debts if they have been guilty of some wrongdoing, such as wrongful or fraudulent trading.

Re: Oooh..errr Has AR actually been very clever.
I keep thinking that Redwood is creating more confusion than Gerry ever did. It's like a smoke-screen to cover an attack. I try to imagine what the McCanns are thinking after 6 years of effort to set their version of events in stone, after watching these forums like hawks and then Mrs going to the ridiculous length of writing her bewk to try to shut down the gaping holes that we've picked over the years....
The McCanns 'control' of the lie (IMO!) has become so rigid, so set in concrete...that they must have no way at all of dealing with Redwoods 'toss it up in the air' approach. The great thing about the truth is that you don't have to remember all of it, every last little inter-related, inter-connected bit the way you do a big fat lie. The truth just 'is' and you can hold it lightly.
A lie has you rigid with exertion, your muscles locked up from effort. I don't think that the McCanns have the emotional, intellectual or physical resources left to unpick what Andy's can of worms means to their story. If it's the truth then, of course, they don't have to. But if it's a lie, then they will look like very sickly rabbits in very bright headlights.

And again fraudulent trading does not mean what you think it means. What fraudulent trading do you believe the fund has done?gbwales wrote:Again...

Incidentally, the passage you quote refers to financial not criminal liability

Re: Oooh..errr Has AR actually been very clever.
There can be criminal liability where there is "consent" and "connivance". That would clearly be the case here.
If the fund was set up in the knowledge that Maddie was dead then it would be obtaining money through deception.

The fund was set up to search for Madeleine and support the family. It had done both so there is no fraud IMO

surely if it is found out that the mccanns are involved then it would be fraud as they are still taking donationsAndyB wrote:The fund was set up to search for Madeleine and support the family. It had done both so there is no fraud IMO

Re: Oooh..errr Has AR actually been very clever.
The company is still taking donations not the McCanns. The company is a legal entity in it's own right and we can't conflate the two. The McCanns are not even the only directors so I don't see how their involvement in anything illegal could possibly affect the company provided that the company was trading lawfully and within it's articles of association, which IMO it is

Re: Oooh..errr Has AR actually been very clever.
If, as I believe, Madeleine McCann's parents are responsible for her disappearance the 'fund' is fraudulent and has been since the date of its registration.AndyB wrote:The fund was set up to search for Madeleine and support the family. It had done both so there is no fraud IMO
It follows that any monies received by the 'fund' are the proceeds of crime and setting up a limited company for the purpose of receiving these monies does not give immunity from their recovery by the criminal courts.
Section 2 of the Fraud Act 2006 applies, as does Section 12 pertaining to the liability of company officers.
I would argue that all company officers past and present should be held liable if there is reason to suppose they have colluded with the McCanns in defrauding the public or that they have failed to make any suspicions they may have entertained known to the proper authorities.
Criminal offences fall within the remit of criminal law and in this case civil law does not apply - nor should it.

Re: Oooh..errr Has AR actually been very clever.
I agree with the logic in your argument but I'm not convinced it's legally correct. I'm not a lawyer so I could well be wrong and I would like someone to convince me that I am. However, the fund was set up to search for Madeleine and support the parents using income from public donations. As it has both searched for Madeleine by paying for PIs (albeit hopeless) and supported the family (by making mortgage payments) it has done exactly what it said it would do and is not therefore fraudulent IMO
It's an interesting point about the proceeds of crime. IF Madeleines disappearance was caused by the parents is the funds income the proceedings of crime? I suspect not because the income came from the operation of a business, which is not illegal

Re: Oooh..errr Has AR actually been very clever.
Did anyone hear Andy R say " we are fighting for Madeleine" . I think this was in a media interview, not on CW. I found his choice of words striking and am sure I did not imagine it...

Re: Oooh..errr Has AR actually been very clever.
If the McCanns are responsible for their eldest daughter's disappearance it follows that they know where she is or where her body is concealed and they can produce her, or her remains - or reveal what happened to her remains if her body is not recoverable - at any time of their choosing.AndyB wrote:I agree with the logic in your argument but I'm not convinced it's legally correct.

If this should be the case, the fund is fraudulent as it has been created solely for the purpose of soliciting donations from the public to search for a child who is not missing.
In common parlance the fund is a scam and endeavouring to disguise this fact in a company limited by guarantee does not make it any less so.

There will be justice for Madeleine, albeit far too late to have saved her from harm.

I am going to keep my faith in AR for the moment. I have faith in GA and I have faith in the Portuguese Police and I have faith in NSY. More importantly I have faith in Joe Public and their increasing demands for a voice.
A whitewash would IMO be impossible now. AR and the media have made sure of that with all this increased publicity. Sites like this have made sure of this from the beginning.
There is an awful lot of people who want answers, truth and justice for Madeleine.
