Whilst I, like everyone else, just wants to know that Maddy has been found safe (albeit traumatised, poor litttle girl 
) don't you think that the British media are a disgrace!?..................
Very much of your opinion as well Sam, I have been thinking that the Portuguese police are on the right track by playing things to their chest and not talking to the press. Of course I can not say for sure but I would think that they keep Maddie's parents up dated and really they are the only ones who need to now.

If this suspect turns out to be guilty of a terrible crime, then of course he deserves everything that's coming to him...................
However, the British press seem to delight in naming and shaming anyone, and often even before charges have been brought!
Whatever happened to being innocent until proven guilty!!
How many of us would want our names and details plastered all around the world, when potentially we were actually innocent???
I can't believe they're allowed to do this, and I actually favour the Portuguese system of NOT "leaking" information to the blood thirsty "pack" that the gutter press has become
Just to clarify, I've never been the victim of mistaken identity, nor has anyone I've ever known, but I'm sick to death of individuals being torn apart from the very moment that their names are even mentioned as being part of an enquiry.
How often do you recall seeing pages and pages of coverage, shouting it from the rooftops that a suspect actually wasn't guilty at all???
As I said, IF this man is found guilty in a court of law, then I hope he gets the sentence that he deserves.
Unfortunately, this "trial by media" can end up causing a legal loophole, whereby a guilty person is actually not taken to trial, because the media interest has prejudiced their right to a fair trial.
I don't see anything fair about the way the British press are allowed to report nowadays.
Let's hope that little Maddy is found soon, and that she will eventually be able to overcome this unthinkable ordeal that someone has put her through.

Re: Child Abducted
I personally think that with this media attention and rewards being offered it has sealed Madelines fate. She is very hot property and whoever may decide she is not worth the hassle and kill her, or alternatively it may make her popular in the pedophile underworld where she will be in demand. Either way I think this attention has sealed what will happen to her and I feel very sorry for her.
My anger is directed at the arsehole go gooders who let known pedophiles roam around in communities without warning them and thinking their rights are more important than warning parents that their neighbour who seems a nice man, is a known serial pedophile and they are happy for their kids to chat to him.

Hi,
I have supported everything they have done in the hope of finding maddy, however after hearing about them seeing the pope i think it has gone to new lengths.
I know ppl have faiths they support but me personally would be dragging my bum around Morocco and anywhere else i could not going to see if an amazing miracle happens by seeing the pope.

I thought you had to do something amazing (or be famous) in order to meet the pope. It seems to me all they did was have a moment of madness/naivety/stupidity/selfishness (depending on your point of view)
as hubby said to me..it's amazing what a publicist can do
but I don't think it will bring Maddie back

I feel for them, and more so for maddie, but as you say this has gone to new extremes

Hi,
I do not think it will bring her back, i am a non believer in religion but i do not think that going to see a old man will bring her back what they need to do is get some family members to pick the other 2 kids up, they need to then make there was to morroco and they need to look, rather than wasting time thinking the pope is going to be able to help.
My view is no point wasting time in praying if there was a god it would not of happened in the first place.
