Missing : Madeleine Mcann
Have you guys heard of this sweet looking 4 year old girl who had been missing in Portugal since 3rd May 2007? A family of 5 were in Portugal for a vacation. They are from Rothley, Leicestershire. It has been 128 days since Maddie's disappearance and hopes of finding her has been deminishing day by day. My heartfelt blessings to Maddie and I hope that she'll be found(alive) someday.
Start of information from http://www.thesun.co.uk/article/0,,2005320001-2007411047,00.html :
THE mystery of Maddie’s disappearance began on May 3.
8.30PM: The McCanns join their friends at a tapas bar less than a minute’s walk from the apartment. Each adult in the party of nine then took turns to look in on the kids.
9.05PM: Gerry checked the children. He is believed to be the last person to have seen Maddie.
9.30PM: Friend of the family Jane Tanner spotted a man carrying a child close to the McCanns’ flat — but it never crossed her mind as suspicious.
10PM: Kate returned to the room but there was no sign of Maddie. Guests and staff helped search the resort after she ran screaming from the apartment.
10.30PM: Within half an hour police were called. But child abduction is so rare in Portugal, officers thought Maddie had simply wandered off. Hours passed before they took it seriously.
By 8am the following day, the hunt for Madeleine was a full-scale child abduction investigation.
May 12 was Maddie’s fourth birthday. On May 14 cops searched a villa and quizzed Briton Robert Murat before releasing him.
On August 7 a local paper reported traces of blood were found at the McCanns’ apartment.
Four days later Portuguese cops said Maddie may be dead.
On August 31 the McCanns said they would sue a paper which claimed police believed they killed Maddie.
Kate was quizzed for hours and declared a suspect on September 7. Gerry was also interviewed.

Is Maddie still alive? Was she kidnapped? Are her parents prime suspect of her disappearance? Where is she now? We do not know. But, like me, you certainly hope that she is still alive, right?
May they reunite soon.God bless.
