McCanns v Bennet

Considering the way the McCanns have gone after Tony Bennett, it's odd that they didn't sue Martin Brunt or Sky News for saying there was a 100% match to Madeleine's DNA. But of course they couldn't because in fact the statement was true.

Reading through that labyrinth of mumbo jumbo and trying to interpret it is enough to do anyone's head in, but that's why it's written like that I suppose - it forces people to have to employ solicitors and barristers at extortionate cost for even the simplest of matters, thus perpetuating the elitist system and keeping the elite in lucrative employment. At the same time, so clearly demonstrated by the McCann v. Bennett case, this closed system run by an upper class elite favours those with the financial clout. I'm afraid that if they perceive that Tony Bennett has broken undertakings he gave to the court they will come down on him as hard as possible. For them, this is not about whether Tony Bennett is right or wrong - it's about setting an example and keeping the plebs in line.

McCanns get ruling on alleged 'harassment'

Thursday, October 25, 2012



The parents of Madeleine McCann have successfully argued for a speedy hearing in their dispute with a retired lawyer they say has mounted a libelous harassment campaign against them.

Gerry and Kate McCann, of Rothley, are asking the High Court to jail 65-year-old Tony Bennett, who they say has persisted in spreading false allegations against them, both on-line and in print.

Mr Bennett, of Harlow, Essex, promised in November 2009 to stop making allegations that the couple were guilty of, or suspected of, causing their daughter's death, disposing of her body and trying to cover up what they had done.

Mr and Mrs McCann's lawyers claim he has since breached that formal undertaking more than 150 times and are seeking his imprisonment, or other punishment, for alleged contempt of court.

At the High Court yesterday, Mr Justice Tugendhat underlined the vital importance of court orders and undertakings being obeyed and directed that the couple's case against Mr Bennett be heard "as soon as practicable".

Mr Bennett is asking the court to vary the undertakings he gave in 2009 so that he can publish to the world at large what he claims is "credible evidence" that Madeleine died in her parents' holiday apartment, that her parents have covered this up and have, on occasions, lied about matters connected to her reported disappearance.

The McCanns "deny that there is any truth in any of the allegations which Mr Bennett wishes to be free to make" and argue that his continued publication of "numerous grave and actionable libels" against them amounts to harassment.

Madeleine went missing in May 2007 from an apartment complex in Praia da Luz, Portugal, where her parents – both doctors from Rothley – had been holidaying with a group of friends.

Madeleine went missing? Can't find the word 'abducted' in there. Have I missed it?

What does this mean?

McCanns get ruling on alleged 'harassment'

The use of the 'quotes' would suggest that it wasn't harassment. A bit like a mock 'chop' you get at the chippy.

Madeleine went missing? Can't find the word 'abducted' in there. Have I missed it?

Hi Annaesse & all,maybe its libel to anyone with an ounce of intelligence who has looked into this case to say the A word

'A speedy hearing' which means they want this case to go through WITHOUT hearing about the evidence which proves Tony is right.

It's a press release. It's reproduced almost verbatim in the Mirror.

http://www.mirror.co.uk/news/uk-news/madeleine-mccanns-parents-in-court-bid-1397269

Tony Bennett has complained to the Daily Mirror about the inaccuracies here, particularly the part where he is claimed to have accused the McCanns of causing their daughter's death.

He has just been informed that this will be clarified in tomorrow's paper.

I'm not at all surprised he's complained - It's appallingly sloppy and amateurish journalism.

That's what you get for trying to put serious stuff into a Comic.

It is still on the online version though available to the, world.

It will prob be on page 26 and two sentences.

Is there any fund set up to help Tony, I hope there is he needs as much help as possible imo

Won't hurt for people to put a pound into a fund, alter all, we may not all agree the way he has gone about this but he only wants justice for Madeleine like the rest off us.


He's put his life on the line for this.

//////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////

.I sent this letter to the Daily Mirror earlier on:

Dear Mr Rousewell

I refer to your article in today's Daily Mirror and in particular the headline: "Madeleine McCann's parents in court bid to jail retired lawyer accusing them of causing the girl's death". It must be put on record that Mr Bennett has never accused Madeleine's parents of causing her death. You must publicly correct your article and issue an apology.

The British and Portuguese police both came to the conclusion that Madeleine had died in the holiday apartment and her cadaver was concealed and that her death was covered up. This conclusion was reached after the British Police sent in the sniffer dogs who alerted to blood and cadaver scent in the holiday apartment, on Kate McCann's clothes and in their hire car to name but a few of the locations. The Portuguese Police released their official files into the public domain when the case was shelved pending further evidence (e.g. namely that the McCann's would answer the police questions and take part in the reconstruction.) You can read the official police files in many places on the internet but specifically here: http://themaddiecasefiles.com/

I am also the owner of 'The Complete Mystery of Madeleine McCann' forum which consists of (for instance) retired lawyers, retired senior police officers, an undertaker, and journalists who are all seeking the truth about what really happened to Maddie McCann. My forum can be viewed here: http://jillhavern.forumotion.net/forum and it is full of facts and valuable research resources compiled by many professionals.

We are a group of people who have followed this case from Day One (nearly 6 years ago) - we have read the police files and the books that have been published by the retired Portuguese police officers. Many of us have also contributed to the McCann's Fund where we were led to believe that the money would be used to search for their daughter. When the McCann's released their accounts it was shown that they'd only spent 13% of the money on 'searching' and the rest has been on mortgage payments and libel lawyers etc. The longer this case goes on, the more sinister and bizarre it becomes. Our forum has steadily been raising awareness of this case and we now have more than 2,000 members and regularly have more than 3,000 people viewing each day - and this number is increasing by the month. People are very interested to know what happened to Maddie, but it is unfortunate that the British media refuse to give us the correct facts. Obviously many people believe what the British media print but there are also many who are curious about the real facts and we have to get those facts direct from Portugal. One of our group, a retired senior police officer (CID/Child Protection) has actually been to Portugal with an American Criminal Profiler to investigate this case at their own expense. None of this actually gets into the British media even though our forum is viewed by British journalists (Martin Brunt, Mike Gunnill for example). Talking of Mike Gunnill you may be aware that he is being called as a witness by Tony Bennett to the Libel Trial - details of his entrapment to help the McCanns try to put Mr Bennett in jail can be found on our forum. Any of us would be pleased to answer questions should you read our forum and wish to publish an article that contains facts.

It is excellent that you have printed an article about the McCanns versus Bennett court case as it seems likely it will lead to a full Libel Trial, but it would be even better, please, if the proper facts were published so that members of the public could be informed of the truth surrounding the mysterious disappearance of little Maddie.

Tony Bennett is a retired lawyer and a former social worker; he is a man of great integrity, he doesn't have a malicious bone in his body and it is wholly unfair that he is being portrayed as a man out to cause trouble. He has spent nearly 6 years researching this case and has literally spent thousands of hours and his own money seeking the truth about what happened to Maddie who was the same age as his own grandson when, according to the conclusion reached by the police, she died in the McCann's holiday apartment. The Full Libel Trial will be a real eye-opener should you or any of your journalists care to attend to listen to the evidence he will produce in court.

If you care to read the police files you will see that it is actually the police who have concluded that Maddie is dead and her parents concealed her body. Mr Bennett has truth on his side and he does not fear the Libel Trial in itself - but he does fear the current climate of corruption and cover-ups which is rife in this country right across the board. He does not deserve to be made bankrupt or homeless or to be jailed (like Ex-Senator Stuart Syvret who is researching the child abuse in Jersey that is also being covered up).

Regards,


Jill Havern.

IN reference to a story in the Daily Mirror, (page 29, Oct 25) Tony Bennett has asked us to record his position that he has undertaken to the High Court not to repeat allegations that the parents of Madeleine McCann are guilty of, or are suspected of, causing the death of their daughter, but has never made that accusation himself."

Off topic but had to share...McCanns are everywhere!

Sometimes I go off on tangents once I am seaching for things so I ended up watching some episodes of Come Dine with Me, which I love....

Checking the side panel...look what appeared! One of my uploads from the Leveson Inquiry

Click on 'Load more videos' at the bottom of the first selection. Is it just me that got the McCann option or are my videos penetrating Come Dine with me uploads!

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FiZt4CvvLYc&feature=relmfu

As such, consider:

1. abduction, for sexual exploration or other (e.g, later adoption, child trafficking, organ trafficking), without homicide;

2. abduction, followed by homicide with (or without) hiding of the corpse;

3. accidental death, with later hiding of the corpse



These are three options from the Final Report which are on MM wjk kindly gave me the link. I couldn't find them on the Original Final Report and seem to remember there were 4 options. Anyway, I seem to remember one was accidental death in Apartment 5a., no reference to a cover -up.. I am not a Member of Jill Haverns but think she can be pulled up for this remark "The British and Portuguese police both came to the conclusion that Madeleine had died in the holiday apartment and her cadaver was concealed and that her death was covered up" and suggest one of you contact her to look up the Original PJ report and see what it says.

'they didn't want to give up the cadaver'....that is different to covering up her death.

wow -- wonder what lord and lady muck will think of the star

It isn't the usual "vile Internet stalker" type of press coverage so I don't suppose the dishonourable duo will be too pleased.
