Skinning the Kat

The Madeleine McCann abduction mystery seems to be full of so many twists and turns that it would make an interesting case for Hercule Poirot, Sherlock Holmes, Miss Marple and every other fictional and non-fictional detective. We now learn that that Metodo 3 who were employed by the McCanns to find Maddie had never found a missing child in their lives despite bragging to the contrary. It seems that their reputation is not as "squeeky clean" as it should be and that the company and individuals have tarnished reputations. Kevin Halligen who was also employed by the McCanns made wild promises to them but only came up with a Google Earth Image that was less than useless for the extotionate amount of money they paid . He is now being sought in connection with a £1m con and should never have been engaged in the search. For many months now the Maddie investigation has been carried out by two English detectives but yet again has not come up with any positive or useful evidence that we have seen. This all makes one wonder if the McCanns are using all the donations made by the public in a wise and efficient manner. Together with the vast publicity machine and propaganda, and employing questionable "experts" from soothsayers to investigators, the total spend must be well over 7 figures, and so far all to no avail. The McCanns themselves seem to be doing very little apart from paying out these vast sums to all and sundry. Maybe it is time for them to get up off their backsides, cease their "all expenses paid" trips all over the globe, and return to Portugal and start again from scratch. Possibly even meet with Detective Amaral - but no - that would too much to expect!

Brian Kennedy the Mccanns backer. Now here it becomes interesting. Mr.Kennedy claims that it is he who paid Metodo 3 nothing came from the fund. Who do we believe ?if this is the case where is the 300.000- 500.000 that the Mccanns claim to have geiven Metodo.

There are several Brian Kennedys on this link...Scroll down to the Mccanns Brian Kennedy...They have some good questions in this very strange affair.

Part of the first link contains the following:
The fund is NOT a charity, it's a private limited company. A lot of donors who gave to it weren't aware of the fact that one of its objectives is to "support the McCanns financially". So far that has included two months mortgage payments plus first class travel and luxury hotels. We will never know all the information because, unlike charities, private companies don't have to publish detailed accounts. Something else has happneed which is more sinister: the McCanns have recently joined the board of directors, something they wouldn't do in the early days because it would have aroused suspicion. From what I gather, the fund is now bearing all the costs of running the campaign and will run dry by the end of the year.....unless they succeed in obtaining damages from Goncalo Amaral which seems unlikely.

This is Metodo 3 Web page. They tell of all the crimes that they have investigated along with newspaper reports. Well, not all, they seem to have forgotten the Mccann case.

More on Brian Kennedy and Metodo 3

It seems Halligens role is to show the Mccanns as victims. Does anyone really believe that the Mccanns have been ripped off twice by these characters?.Metodo 3 and Halligen...Both suggested and introduced by Brian Kennedy the window glazier.
Last week it was reported the Mccanns paid 300.000 now it seems to have gone up to 500.000.
Metodo 3, the Mccanns also claim to have given the same amount...Are we all so gullible as to believe this is really where the 'Fund ' money has gone. The Mccanns would like us to think so.

Another large amount of money that the Mccanns have cost the British Tax Payer...As the Mccanns wish to have their own detectives why have the Mccanns not reimbursed this amount from the Fund?

Metodo 3 interview

Denby1 said...

A few months ago ABCes reported that
Metodo 3 claimed they did not receive
the £50,000 a month reported by the British Press but only 60,000 Euros
for SIX months plus 4,000 Euros Expenses. Apparently, Brian Kennedy
held the Contract for them. Since Brian Kennedy recommended Halligen and Alpha the Directors of No Stone
Unturned must bear responsibility for
not checking out Credentials. It is
PUBLIC donations which have funded their campaign and the Board have a duty of care.
