Newspaper bans ‘spiteful’ McCann
attacks from site |

The parents of Madeleine McCann have defended leaving their daughter alone on
the night she disappeared, as their local newspaper banned from its website
“spiteful and defamatory” comments about the couple.
Kate and Gerry McCann will meet Portuguese police today to see if there has
been any progress in the case. Mr McCann has spent the past four days in the United States,
meeting experts on child abduction and talking to the media. He was asked why
he and his wife left Madeleine and their two other children in a holiday villa
while they dined at a nearby restaurant.
He told ABC’s Good Morning America: “We were 50 yards away and could see the
apartment. It’s like we were sat at the end of our garden. The kids were sound
asleep and being checked regularly. We didn’t think we needed a babysitter.
What we did felt perfectly reasonable at the time.
He later told CNN: “We have been assured by the authorities that what we did
fell well within the boundaries of good parenting. Madeleine was targeted by a
predator. That is the real criminal act here.”
The Leicester Mercury said yesterday that visitors to its website had left
messages calling for the McCanns to be prosecuted. Nick Carter, the editor,
said: “A tiny minority of people seem to want to say nasty, spiteful and
defamatory things. They are bombarding our site, and we had no choice but to
block comment entirely on reports about the family.”
Madeleine McCann disappeared 84 days ago, just before her fourth birthday. The
only official suspect is Robert Murat, a British man who lived close to the
McCanns’ villa in Praia da Luz.
A mother who scolded her tantrum-throwing daughter and put her in a car to calm
down was told by police that her actions had been inappropriate in the light of
Madeleine McCann’s disappearance. Ruth Ball, 24, from Luton,
criticised Bedfordshire Police for interfering in the disciplining of her
child. |
