This isn't thought to be William.
A dreadful story regardless of who it was.

Posted by portugalpress on July 25, 2015
Joining the millions of words already written about this century’s most famous missing person comes news that “the skeletal remains of a toddler closely resembling Madeleine McCann in age and other aspects has been found in an abandoned suitcase” in South Australia.
Florida-based website Crime Magazine runs the story saying police “believe the child was murdered and her body kept in the suitcase for up to eight years before finally being deposited at the side of a highway”.
With the headline “Is Madeleine McCann the Australian Dead Baby Doe Victim?”, Crime Magazine adds that “authorities have not made any connection” yet to the disappearance of Madeleine McCann from a holiday apartment in Praia da Luz, Algarve, in 2007 - but they have issued an appeal asking people to “think back into the past, back to 2007 and the years in between” and try and remember any child that could answer this description whose whereabouts they are no longer sure about.
Australia’s ABC news affirms “there is no-one on the South Australian database who is thought to match the discovery”, and commentaries flooding in as a result of the grisly find are equally adamant that “no Australian child of this age/ sex matches any known disappearance”.
Intriguing too is the fact that years ago, when sightings of Madeleine all over the globe were commonplace, there were two that firmly alluded to “Australian connections”.
The first involved a “Victoria Beckham look-alike” with an Australian accent seen in a Barcelona marina “in an agitated state” 72-hours after Madeleine went missing.
The attractive young woman is understood to have been “waiting to take delivery” of her new daughter.
Despite a widespread appeal for further information, the lead went cold.
An Australian socialite millionairess was also linked to this sighting as her yacht was believed to have been in Barcelona marina at the same time.
That connection too fell almost as soon as it was mooted.
Since then there have also been stories about a British pedophile now serving jail time in UK who had spent “ten years on the run in Australia” after sexually abusing a nine-year-old girl in Sydney.
Seventy-eight-year-old Roderick McDonald - which Sydney’s The Daily Telegraph claimed had been “known as Roderick William Robinson during his time in Australia” - has a connection with Portugal as it was here in 2010 that Interpol finally caught up with him, extraditing him back to Sydney where he served a brief prison sentence before moving to Thailand.
In other words, the “Australian connection” in this eight year mystery is not a new one.
Crime Magazine presents its theory, posted yesterday (Friday), on the basis that Madeleine “is by now presumed to have been slain”.
“Like Madeleine McCann”, the website continues, the child whose remains were discovered 130 km east of Adelaide “was fair-haired and about two or three years old when she died”.
Australian police have added that “dead Baby Doe was likely transported from place to place in the suitcase, based on the condition of her body and the date of her clothes”.
For now, it remains to be seen what results from the Australian police appeal.
Quoted on ABC news, the detective in charge of the inquiry, Superintendent Des Bray, said police were not able to say how long the child’s remains had been in the suitcase “but it’s clear to us it’s foul play.
"The girl would be two to four years of age at the time of death and if alive today, and subject to when she died, for example, if she died in 2007, the little girl would be between 10 and 12 years old today," he added.

Re: The Australian "Madeleine McCann" case
Hmmm... is Pinkie rehashing the Victoria Beckham/Roderick MacDonald spin for some reason?
Or is this really something of significance?
Would a paedophile abductor really cart a corpse around in a suitcase for eight years? Wouldn't it smell?

Re: The Australian "Madeleine McCann" case
I'm wondering why this isn't much 'bigger' news than it actually is..
As tragic and sad that it is, I would of thought the papers would be all over it.
The media could spin this out for a while on the front pages.. Is it or isn't it sort of thing.
A deathly silence really.
Just my thoughts.

There is no sound and its just aerial footage from a police helicopter of the scene. There is a heavy presence of vehicles, but Im not sure if they are all police. Its the only video I could find on youtube, nothing else on youtube.

There's no money to be made out of a corpse.

Re: The Australian "Madeleine McCann" case
But the name Madeleine McCann associated with this find would sell papers. This is quite worrying really because this could be used as an end.

Re: The Australian "Madeleine McCann" case
I have been following this story on Websleuths. If it is Madeleine then could the Aussie links have been put out there by the Macs and clarence because they knew her remains were in Australia if that makes sense?

Re: The Australian "Madeleine McCann" case
An actual body also means Post-Mortem, DNA, all sorts of things that may have some people very worried indeed.Bubblewrapped wrote:Resistor wrote:Because it is a corpse and not a live child.Andrew wrote:I'm wondering why this isn't much 'bigger' news than it actually is..

Re: The Australian "Madeleine McCann" case
I found this article and I will highlight something I find quite strange. What do you all think...
http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/newstopics/madeleinemccann/5980608/Hunt-for-Madeleine-McCann-shifts-to-Australia.html
The source said Madeleine could be in Australia.
"We don't know where she is.
"She could still be in Spain, back in Australia, or anywhere else.
"But we need to find her quickly."
Why not just say Australia, or down in Australia...Back suggests someones return from there already

Bubblewrapped, I think this is exactly what will happen here. The opportunity has finally arisen to put this to bed. Just my thoughts, tentative theory.

Didn't the Mc's spend time in Australia many moons ago...
Slightly off topic but here's another link about some old Australian stuff.

From what I`ve gathered so far, the body was only put in the case recently.

Re: The Australian "Madeleine McCann" case
Did anyone go to Oz to chase up this lead ?
If not, and they do use this as an end, then no one can be blamed whatsoever.
ETA : What I mean is, if say a body was transported to Australia, then it wont be blamed on anyone who was in PDL.
Extra ETA sorry : If of course they use this as an opportunity to say its Madeleine.
Oh I dont know...Sure you understand what Im trying to say. This could be spun in so many ways

Re: The Australian "Madeleine McCann" case
"heartbreak for the Mccanns in not knowing .... "
"The suspense is agonising for the Mccanns ... "
Team Mccann would normally spin this to there advantage....
The reason they aren't is suspicious in itself...
Just my thoughts etc.

Re: The Australian "Madeleine McCann" case
If they are saying this child died around 2007, but only in the last 6 weeks someone was spotted in the area in a dark car, then its obvious they wanted the body found. Why wait all these years to put the body there 6 weeks ago....
Was there any McCann stories floating about 6 weeks ago ?
