Madeleine McCann’s Parents Release Pumpkin Picture of Missing Daughter with Halloween Message … “We remain hopeful that she may still be found”
It is hard to believe that Madeleine McCann has been missing since May 3, 2007 …
The parents of missing Madeleine McCann have released a picture the other day of her dressed as a pumpkin with a special Halloween message, and urged people not to give up hope of finding her. The UK Mirror reported that last week, the Metropolitan Police cut the number of detectives working on her case from 29 to just four. However, her parents said they “remain hopeful” they will find her. That is all any parent can hang on to with a missing child is hope.
The parents of missing toddler Madeleine McCann have released a picture of her dressed as a pumpkin in a special Halloween message, as they urge people not to give up hope of finding her.
They posted the Halloween picture on the Official Find Madeleine Campaign Facebook page yesterday to remind the world that little Maddie still hasn’t been found.
The picture was posted alongside a short message that simply read “Happy Halloween”.
Madeleine went missing on holiday in Praia da Luiz, Portugal, on May 3 2007.
Facebook: Official Find Madeleine Campaign.
Statement from Maddy’s parents via Facebook:
We would like to thank all the staff from Operation Grange for the meticulous and painstaking work that they have carried out over the last four and a half years. The scale and difficulty of their task has never been in doubt. We are reassured that the investigation to find Madeleine has been significantly progressed and the MPS has a much clearer picture of the events in PDL leading up to Madeleine’s abduction in 2007.
Given that the review phase of the investigation is essentially completed, we fully understand the reasons why the team is being reduced. We would also like to thank the Home Office for continuing to support the investigation.
Whilst we do not know what happened to Madeleine, we remain hopeful that she may still be found given the ongoing lines of inquiry.
