After all...carter ruck are working for free, remember.


I think the court costs were roughly £2,000 or less.

'if she's dead she's dead...but not by there hands'....Clarence Mitchell.-- agreed kitti -- we can lead normal lifes -- their normal life as any one knows as normal stopped on 3rd of may 2007 --respect you cannot buy its earned -- they have none and never will have

So, far from letting them wear us down, be positive and carry on helping to wear them down

  A retired solicitor who published claims that Madeleine McCann's
  parents caused her death has been given a suspended jail sentence.
  
  Mr Justice Tugendhat said 65-year-old Tony Bennett deliberately flouted legal
  undertakings, given in November 2009, not to repeat allegations about the
  couple.
  
  Bennett's conduct, the judge said, was so serious that nothing less than a
  custodial sentence of three months, suspended for one year, would reflect the
  harm he had done.
  
  Finding Bennett guilty of contempt of court, the judge added: "I am sure that
  he intended to allege that the claimants are to be suspected of causing the
  death of their daughter, and did in fact dispose of her body, lie about what
  happened and covered up what they had done."
  
  The judge, at London's High Court, said he was satisfied that Bennett, of
  Harlow, Essex, was in breach of the undertakings in each of the 13
  representative instances before the court - out of 153 publications complained
  of.
  
  He was not asked to make findings in relation to the other alleged
  breaches.
  
  He commented: "It is essential for the rule of law that injunctions and court
  orders be obeyed. It can't be an answer that the person who is giving an
  undertaking or subject to an injunction can ignore it with impunity while it is
  in force."
  
  Bennett, who was ordered to pay the costs of the litigation, apologised to
  the court.

They have won a case against a pensioner but they haven't made it 'news' that they are doing this.

Madeleine has lost, it should off been Mccanns vs Madeleine because they are stopping her getting the justice she deserves.


They don't care if he goes to prison for 10 years , they really couldn't give a toss about Tony, what they care about is IMAGE...as long as the pros keep on believing they don't really care about the Antis.

If the likes of Bren ever think that the Mccanns are grateful to them then they need their heads tested ...your being used the lot off you and what the Mccanns think off you is.....your suckers ...their celebs now, their NEW best friends, people with clout and money that can use the media to put across their own views because the rest off us can't do that......


Every day the Mccanns get out off bed they lose a bit more off their dignity but they don't care, it's worth it to them.
