In other words, the “Australian connection” in this eight year mystery is not a new one.Ĭrime Magazine presents its theory, posted yesterday (Friday), on the basis that Madeleine “is by now presumed to have been slain”. Seventy-eight-year-old Roderick McDonald – which Sydney’s The Daily Telegraph claimed had been “known as Roderick William Robinson during his time in Australia” – has a connection with Portugal as it was here in 2010 that Interpol finally caught up with him, extraditing him back to Sydney where he served a brief prison sentence before moving to Thailand. Since then there have also been stories about a British pedophile now serving jail time in UK who had spent “ten years on the run in Australia” after sexually abusing a nine-year-old girl in Sydney. That connection too fell almost as soon as it was mooted. The attractive young woman is understood to have been “waiting to take delivery” of her new daughter.ĭespite a widespread appeal for further information, the lead went cold.Īn Australian socialite millionairess was also linked to this sighting as her yacht was believed to have been in Barcelona marina at the same time. The first involved a “Victoria Beckham look-alike” with an Australian accent seen in a Barcelona marina “in an agitated state” 72-hours after Madeleine went missing. Intriguing too is the fact that years ago, when sightings of Madeleine all over the globe were commonplace, there were two that firmly alluded to “Australian connections”. With the headline “Is Madeleine McCann the Australian Dead Baby Doe Victim?”, Crime Magazine adds that “authorities have not made any connection” yet to the disappearance of Madeleine McCann from a holiday apartment in Praia da Luz, Algarve, in 2007 – but they have issued an appeal asking people to “think back into the past, back to 2007 and the years in between” and try and remember any child that could answer this description whose whereabouts they are no longer sure about.Īustralia’s ABC news affirms “there is no-one on the South Australian database who is thought to match the discovery”, and commentaries flooding in as a result of the grisly find are equally adamant that “no Australian child of this age/ sex matches any known disappearance”.

The case spread through traditional media, like newspapers and TV broadcasts, but was fueled by then-fledgling social media platforms Facebook and Twitter.Joining the millions of words already written about this century’s most famous missing person comes news that “the skeletal remains of a toddler closely resembling Madeleine McCann in age and other aspects has been found in an abandoned suitcase” in South Australia.įlorida-based website Crime Magazine runs the story saying police “believe the child was murdered and her body kept in the suitcase for up to eight years before finally being deposited at the side of a highway”. It was in these days that the disappearance of, and search, for Madeleine McCann captured the world’s attention. Maddie’s parents described themselves as utterly beset by grief and despair. However, they had no evidence to help locate the girl, or a suspect. Portuguese authorities announced May 12, 2007, that they assumed Maddie was still alive. It had become painfully clear that Madeleine had been kidnapped, and not simply wandered off. Over the next few days, the search was expanded to include border police, airport staff, and hundreds of volunteers.
