I will attempt to keep the estimated figures as realistic as possible as I want to keep this thread as credible as possible...
Maybe it will not make a difference to the 'investigation'...
It will probably not make a difference on how they are reported in the press...
It may not make a difference to those that believe in their innocence...
but........
I would have a hard time believing that Mr.Tax man would not be interested...and HE does not like to be lied to!
If they have spent £1 million and only have £450,000 left...what have they been doing with the rest....?
I have been attempting to gather as much information on the income/expenses on this thread but with so much information it needs 'work' to enable it to be 'digested' more easily
What have they received in income and paid in expenses?
viewtopic.php?f=35&t=22400
Hopefully I can achieve a 'simpler' version, as the FUND (along with their freedom) is one of the motivators for their lies and their denial about anything bad happening to Maddie.
The truth and reality (as close as possible) about the FUND(S) needs to be addressed....Like a dog with a bone I am determined to try...
**************************************************
FUND INCOME RECEIVED EACH MONTH/WEEK (prior to Arguido status)
The fund income to date does not appear to be discussed after October 9th when it reached £1,090,000.
Below is a breakdown of the fund on a month by month and weekly income basis.
I plan on adding the known fund income and 'estimates' to their respective months to get a better picture about whether the fund reflects the correct amounts that should have been received that month
This shows how much was received (according to the official website) on a week by week basis...
Its interesting to see how much was added to the fund each month/ week...
Quite surprising to me to see the sudden drop in funds received one month after Maddie went missing...
Surely June 10 to July 13th would have been when all the fundraisers were in place (allowing time for the funds to be sent and added to the fund income) and the income would have at the very least remained similar to the first month ....
May 4th to June 10th approx £700,000 received
June 11th to July 13th approx £200,000 received.
All figures shown are funds received according to the website and does not include the fund balances..that started to be shown as an alternative..(that will be another project!)
I suspect that psychologically showing the 'fund balance' appears to most to keep them accountable but that does not reflect the income and expenses (which is the reason behind this thread)

The FUND(S)
Find Madeleine Fund
Legal Fund
Reward (pledged) Fund
Individual amounts are never likely to be known but I thought it would be interesting to add together some of the amounts they MAY have received and the expense amounts they MAY have paid out.
Amounts shown in RED are speculation
I would appreciate some help and opinions on what some of these expenses and incomes MAY be and I will add a conservative estimate...IN RED.
I really feel that there is a lot more going in and out of the fund than meets the eye and the public is being 'fed' amounts that serve the McCanns agenda..
I will update the original post whenever possible...
