What's her name again...?

Piss-poor headline, though. Nine years on and they still can't spell Madeleine:

It's before your time Andrew but someone on here reminds me of Senna the Soothsayer (a miserable old pod) on the programme Up Pompeii. She appears here at 3.00.

Some of those friends and family will not be sympathetic to their cause, so things will be rather awkward for them in the coming weeks. It's not a triumph but a potentially terrible personal disaster. Yes, an alternative view is being expressed, which is good, but at a personal cost for some individuals
That was you when you posted as Chop Suey On Toast and sent all those pm's.

The DM has updated and correctly spelt Madeleine now.

I still think the article calls into question more about the McCanns than about said trolls. It doesn't have the punch or spin of Cristobels little foray with the media. Interesting that both contain persons known to Sonia Poulton (if I can point that out!) I will say no more on that and allow everyone to ponder as to why that maybe....coincidence? Hey!!
I agree with your second paragraph but alas it has to go!

Snipped:
Retired solicitor Tony Bennett donated £100 to the fund last year, saying: ‘I think he has the right to publish his record of what he was doing in his investigation.’ Of the trolls, he said: ‘Some of those who have contributed have expressed nasty and hateful views. I do not support that in any shape or form.’
Did he write the above on the Go Fund page at the time of his donation. Can't remember or care really.
As his quote was underneath Ann Kristines then assumed he had also had a 'visit'....

I see what you mean but I'm still not convinced that he was doorstepped. We have couple of people who have stated they were doorstepped. One who has some form of relationship with Sonia (who incidentally has quickly commented on the Mail piece in a Positive way). To be fair if it has been concocted it's not the end of the world,it's hardly from the John Pilger school of investigative journalism tho......is it!?

I expect that Tony will comment on the article when he's back online.

sorry freedom I would expect him to comment that he had been doorstepped before they published said piece.....it don't make sense. The Daily Mail turn up to speak to him and his mouth stays shut.....nahh.

The Telegraph with a balanced report:

but they got this bit wrong:
In his book, The Truth of The Lie, Mr Amaral accused the McCanns of murdering their daughter
That is libellous

Worth keeping.
Judges ordered Goncalo Amaral to pay McCanns £395,000 damages
Group of Britons gave cash to a web fund to help retired officer, 57
£1,000 claimed to be from a ‘very large’ group of Met police officers
Last month Portuguese judges decided to overturn the payout order

I seem to recall that the group of police (if indeed that's who they were) actually made at least one other payment of £1,000.00 or am I having a senior moment?

Just look at the numbers of people green arrowing the comments that are critical of the McCanns!
As for a certain Mr Bennett I wonder if, rather than being doorstepped, he contacted the journalist himself.

Well well. I have spoken to one of the people named in the article on a previous occasion on a matter unrelated to the GA appeal and I very much doubt that there was direct contact face to face with that person due to geography. I reckon her name was lifted straight from the fund page. I wonder if she gave permission. I will contact her now.

You can't mean the two ladies whose photos are published as they are both in the U K.
There is someone (initials JP) whose comment has been taken from GoFundMe. I wonder why she has been selected from all the thousands who commented.

I have messaged her. I know she is a passionate follower of the case but we have never actually discussed it other than we have similar leanings. I spoke to her before about the Anastasia hotel supposed kidnapping last year.
