Disappearance of Madeleine McCann
Madeleine Beth McCann (born 12 May 2003) disappeared on the evening of 3 May 2007 from her bed in a holiday apartment in Praia da Luz, a resort in the Algarve region of Portugal, sparking what one newspaper called "the most heavily reported missing-person case in modern history."〔("Master of media circus for Madeleine McCann" ), ''The Daily Telegraph'', 24 April 2008.〕
Madeleine was on holiday from the UK with her parents, Kate and Gerry McCann, her younger twin siblings, and a group of family friends and their children. She and the twins had been left asleep at 20:30 in the ground-floor apartment, while the McCanns and friends dined in a restaurant 50 metres (160 ft) away.〔("Kidnapping concern for missing girl in Portugal" ), Reuters, 4 May 2007.〕 The parents checked on the children throughout the evening, until Madeleine's mother discovered she was missing at 22:00. At first the Portuguese police seemed to accept that it was an abduction, but after misinterpreting a British DNA analysis came to believe that Madeleine had died in the apartment, which placed a cloud of suspicion over her parents. The McCanns were declared ''arguidos'' (suspects) in September 2007, but were cleared in July 2008 when Portugal's attorney-general closed the case.〔James Sturcke and agencies, ("McCanns and Murat formally cleared in case of missing Madeleine" ), ''The Guardian'', 21 July 2008.〕
The parents continued the investigation using private detectives until Scotland Yard opened its own inquiry, Operation Grange, in 2011. In 2013 Scotland Yard released e-fit images of men they wanted to trace, including one of a man seen carrying a child toward the beach that night.〔Sandra Laville, ("British detectives release efits of Madeleine McCann suspect" ), ''The Guardian'', 14 October 2013.〕 Shortly after this the Portuguese police reopened their inquiry.〔 Both investigations are ongoing.
The disappearance attracted sustained international interest, and saturation coverage in the UK reminiscent of the death of Diana in 1997.〔Nicola Rehling, "'Touching Everyone': Media Identifications, Imagined Communities and New Media Technologies in the Case of Madeleine McCann," in Ruth Parkin-Gounelas (ed.), ''The Psychology and Politics of the Collective: Groups, Crowds and Mass Identifications'', Routledge, 2012, p. (152ff ).〕 The McCanns were subjected to intense scrutiny and false allegations of involvement in their daughter's death, particularly in the tabloid press and on Twitter.〔Eilis O'Hanlon, ("Eilis O'Hanlon: The sad rise of cyber courts full of Twittering bullies" ), ''Sunday Independent'' (Ireland), 29 April 2012.
