SUNDAY HERALD Sept 15th (approx) 2007 Millions have contacted the Madeleine McCann appeal website. Who runs it? Three teenagers from Ullapool Inside the campaign HQ TWO YOUNG people hurriedly stuff yellow Look For Madeleine wristbands into envelopes, surrounded by cardboard boxes containing thousands more earmarked for the campaign. Nearby, in the untidy garage store room, Madeleine badges and posters are awaiting delivery to supporters around the world who have donated £2 for the bands that symbolise the search for the missing four-year-old. Policeman's son Calum MacRae, 18, is responsible for the campaign's website and distribution network for Madeleine's campaign from the unlikely location of the Loch Broom garage, on a windswept industrial estate on the outskirts of Ullapool, Wester Ross. Despite Madeleine's parents, Kate and Gerry, both 39, now being treated by Portuguese police as suspects in her disappearance while on holiday in the Algarve, Calum claims there has been a recent surge in interest in the website and wristbands. "There's no let-up," said Calum, whose Infohost firm hosts the family's official website, run using some of the £1 million in donations being sent to the privately run Madeleine's Fund: Leaving No Stone Unturned. "There's been a big increase in orders since they became suspects. Somebody came back 30 times, ordering 100 bands. Sometimes people just want one or two, so we throw a couple of extra bands in. It's difficult to get rid of some of the medium-sized bands as they don't fit many people. People would still want the Madeleine bands even if she was found. Her face is a mark. It's everywhere." Calum, who has designed websites "since he was 10" is paid out of the global donations to the fund, which won't be contributing to the McCanns' legal costs. He refused to be drawn on how much his team of six are paid, and the Sunday Herald's repeated calls to the fund's spokeswoman, Esther McVey, were not returned. He added: "I can't tell you that, it's not much honestly. We are just covering our costs. You would need to speak to the fund about that." Calum is convinced of the couple's innocence and says he will continue to run the website even if they are charged and tried in Portugal. He said: "I know from speaking to Gerry on the phone that he is 100% innocent. They are definitely not guilty. Gerry is very determined to find his daughter. You can tell it in his voice when he talks on the phone. He wouldn't have done all this if they were guilty. If the fund is still going, we will continue the website even if they are charged and face trial. They wouldn't want us to back off ..." He remains convinced "someone" in Portugal knows the truth about Madeleine's whereabouts, and the family yesterday launched an £80,000 TV, newspaper and billboard campaign, which will be translated into several languages primarly aimed at Spain, Portugal and other mainland European countries, beginning in two weeks. Madeleine's uncle, John McCann, from Glasgow, said: "The main objective of the Madeleine fund is to leave no stone unturned in the search for Madeleine." Calum became involved after Madeleine's aunt, Philomena McCann, his former schoolteacher in Ullapool, approached him four days after the girl disappeared on May 3. He said his staff spent between "12 and 20" hours each week on the website and wristbands. Although he claimed to have lost money on an earlier stunt for Premier League footballers to wear Madeleine t-shirts, he is pressing ahead with the distribution of T-shirts to the public in return for £10 donations. Calum said: "We stopped every other thing we were doing that day and put the Find Madeleine site straight on. It's pretty much full-time doing the website and bands. We just invoice the fund, but it's not expensive compared with what other companies would charge. We have to account for how many hours are worked. It's not for us to decide what we are paid, but the fund insist we are." The website's English-based server crashed when 1.5 million users tried to watch a video of Madeleine shown at the Uefa and FA Cup finals. Figures obtained by the Sunday Herald show the Find Madeleine website attracted as many people as Missing People, the established UK charity formally known as the National Missing Persons Helpline, on September 7, the day Kate and Gerry were named as suspects in the case. They show that 400,000 people viewed the Madeleine site, compared to only 150,000 for www.missingpeople.org.uk which is responsible for issuing appeals for thousands of people who vanish across the UK and Europe. American interest accounted for 103,000 hits on the Madeleine site, with only 15,000 from Portugal, and around 20,000 each from European countries such as Spain and Germany, which the family are hoping to target with the poster campaign. Calum also revealed how Kate checks Gerry's blog before it is emailed to the site. However, Gerry has only posted one message since his return to Britain last week. Calum added: "It has got crazy at times, we've even got people going on in places such as Kurdistan." Another worker on the site, Rona Eddington, 18, the daughter of a senior police inspector in Ross-shire, said: "We've had people saying in emails we killed her and taken her away' and we hate you.' We don't know if they are genuine, but they are passed to the police, who chase them all up. We've had so many like that and have to filter them. The website is about supporting the family." Rona's father, chief inspector Paul Eddington, said he had no problems with his daughter's involvement in the website following Leicestershire Police's decision to take Kate's diary and Gerry's laptop, which he used to write his blog, for their Portuguese counterparts to examine last week. The Portuguese magistrate examining the case is expected to announce this week whether the couple will face further questioning. "I view what my daughter is doing as a parent, rather than a police officer. In the unlikely event that the investigation did involve the website, I would take a pragmatic view and wouldn't seek to get involved," said Eddington. Calum is already working on new ventures after spotting a market in missing-person websites. Last week he contacted the family of missing schoolgirl Rosemary Edwards, from Hampshire, after her father made an emotional TV appeal. He said: "I don't think we should be making money out of it, but I would love to do more stuff like this. We phoned up to see if they wanted a website for that missing girl, but they haven't called back." www.findmadeleine.com |

Posted by: Elaina, Kansas City on 1:34am Sun 16 Sep 07 How refreshing to read a story about this case that has to do with factual details about how the Madeleine McCann website is maintained. There are so many stories that are based on hearsay, innuendos and leaks. It is interesting to hear about this group of young people who have channeled their talents in to something that is serving as a valuable tool for the McCanns and the public. I admire these young people for sticking to their beliefs and remaining consistent, supportive and energetic. Also, I think it is a nice thing to want to make a living at supporting others during difficult times. As they are working out of a garage, you can see that they are hardly making a huge amount of money over this effort. This article references responses that they get from the public on this website . . . it is shameful how people comment in such hateful and emotional ways about subject matter in which they have no factual knowledge - only what is reported in the media. You know these days, anyone could find themselves or a family member in the path of media attention and would they want people to voice every emotional reaction about them? Thoughtful perspective and comments that demonstrate restraint and objectivity are a lot more impactful -- a respectful.

Posted by: suzanne, USA on 2:56am Sun 16 Sep 07 I have a website for my business, and it has many pages and some links, Cost $1020.00 to build, and $35.00 for the server who hosts it per month. Text changes $10.00. We all need to get paid, business is business. Seemingly its a full time job for Calum, who needs to learn to spellcheck and punctuate. Needless to say I feel sorry for what Madeleine is going thru, but tell me this much. As a mother of 3, after having a child abducted or whatever happened to her on May 3rd can a mother drop her twins of at a creche each day, I would not let them out of site if that was me.

Posted by: Lynn Mansfied, US on 3:15am Sun 16 Sep 07 [bold]bold[/bold] I read a story about disappearance of an eight-year-old Portuguese girl in 2004. Her name is Joana Cipriano and she vanished from a village just seven miles from Praia da Luz. Joana's mother and uncle were convicted of murder-no body found. Five police officers have been accused of forcing false confessions out of them. Goncalo Amaral, who is number three in the Madeleine inquiry has been accused of torture, omission of evidence and falsification of documents. I believe there is a possibility that someone within Portugal's Police department is responsible the abduction of Madeleine and Joana. It would explain many things... like how could DNA evidence get into a vehicle that was rented by the McCann's 25 days after Madeleine's disappearance. It was planted in the vehicle by someone who has access to police evidence and the investigation.

Posted by: L.Fitzgerald, New Zealand on 5:38am Sun 16 Sep 07 It seems that all the Portuguese Police are doing is trying to deflect the search for a missing child into a murder enquiry as a cover up. I wonder if all the police have alibi's on the night Madeleine disappeared. As for a babysitter. My daughter worked in similar resorts as a Nanny and all they did was listen at each door every half hour and contacted the parents if there was crying inside. This is common practise and maybe should be reviewed. At least all the publicity has made everyone aware of the extent of child abduction in the world. I just hope that Madeleine is returned to her family soon. It seems that all the Portuguese Police are doing is trying to deflect the search for a missing child into a murder enquiry as a cover up.

The Mail on Sunday today exposes the whole structure behind the daily drip of smears to the Portuguese tabloids, written on a paid daily column by a retired member of the local police who is himself one of the formal suspects for beating into a "confession" the mother of the last local child that went missing three years ago. This is all about corrupt local police, local tabloids, and a £2.8 billion tourist industry that cannot afford to be destroyed by a European-wide realisation that the Algarve has twice in three years been targetted by paedophile child abductors. Also, the "evidence" about DNA hair etc is baloney likewise, the DNA would show the same incidence of matching from any member of the McCann family. The desperate truth is that the local police are using the Press—who are camped on site having to justify themselves with daily "news", the hotter the better, to beat up into a "confession" the McCanns just as they beat up the previous mother of a missing child in the region.

Posted by: Tony, Glasgow on 11:23am Sun 16 Sep 07 Pig Chalk Gnu shows where some of the anti-McCann sentiment unfortunately can come from in Scotland. They went to see the Pope, eh? As for Chloe in Cardiff she says there is far more evidence against the McCanns. The whole point is, as the Mail on Sunday articles today make clear, is that there is no actual evidence against the McCanns whatso ever. That is the whole point. They are being relentlessly smeared by a policeman in the local tabloid always maintaining that the police "have evidence that" when this "evidence" never ever once has held up. Kate McCann like the mother of the missing child three years ago, is being pressurised and inhumanely treated to force her to the point of a confession, or a breakdown. The McCanns "fault" in the eyes of the local police is that they stayed on the resort and drummed up worldwide publicity.

Do they think the "culprit" will sent emails to the site and they will find them and get their name in lights? Do their big stuff? Be honest reader, thats what it looks like. Sad stuff - but predictable. These cops are frankly going to look ridiculous. Pretending to be sniffer of the yard? A "Baldric Cunning Plan" if you ask little old me. What fannies.

Posted by: Cheri, Florida USA on 12:39pm Sun 16 Sep 07 Well I hope these kids don't look up to the McCanns for parenting advice. The fact is that they are GUILTY of negligence, leaving 3 babies alone....they could have drowned in that pool, fallen down the stairs, started a fire with found matches... I think they may be guilty of much more,but it starts with the negligence....who wants to support such rotten parents? What of other, poor, parents in jail for negligence?? Should they free all of them? http://www.dailymail .co.uk/pages/live/ar ticles/news/worldnew s.html?in_article_id =474428&in_page_id=1 811 Well I hope these kids don't look up to the McCanns for parenting advice.
