Are you sure you got that right?

Psychic help?

Not psychiatric help?

JOHN CHUCKMAN, TORONTO, Canada

The psyche is the "mind", and we are reliably informed that the C.I.A ran training courses to teach potentially psychic people to "remote view" foreign military bases etc. This "remote viewing" was taken seriously by the C.I.A so why should closed-minded cynics suggest that psychic powers are a tool of charlatans?. We are ALL psychic, to some extent, it"s just that some are more tuned in to their intuitive abilities than others. I too was a cynic once, experience since has made me think I was also a closed-minded moron.

Piggy Kruger, Bridgwater, U.K

to be honest i think its a good idea sometimes these phycics really can help what is there to lose

jessie, KINGSLYNN, UK

Madeleine McCann is as important as every missing child. Her case has merely served to highlight the number of children who go missing every year, and at last the governments of the world are beginning to sit up and take notice.

angela fagan, Glasgow, Scotland

why is this child more important to the media than all the other missing children there parents must feel so bitter about all the publicity the macanns are getting

marie, birmingham, england

How can they be considering psychic help when they are devoted catholics ?? Isn't that against their religion ??? I'm pretty sure it is...
Hipocrisy springs to mind...

vandal, London,

why cant they give the mcanns a lie detecter test, if they say they are innocent a lie detector will prove that, as its 99% accurate, I am not sure what to believe anymore

karen, cardiff, uk

the mcCanns need all the help they can get.If other children go missing then shame on us for allowing this. To Paul of London it is not a "joke" and why should we stop looking for M.or any child? Have you and others of your ilk a hidden agenda?

patricia, 0ldham, england

Pointless story about a couple of media manipulators and a bunch of con-artists / delusional people (or both).

please STOP covering this issue when there are NO FACTS

the only news worth reporting is that the child has been found (I hope), or the perpetrators found, anything else is is just media masturbation - ENOUGH!

Paul, Exeter,

Well, well,
just as we thought things were going quiet and normality might return to the news........ Yep, team McCann put more rubbish out to the press.
Please use any means possible to help find your daughter, but some of us are now sick to the back teeth of a couple who bugger off to see the Pope and prance around europe, whilst leaving their twin children in a foriegn country just after their sister has been abducted.
Sorry if it sounds heartless, but there are many more important things going on now that need attention & not be distracted by this sorry tale.

Pete , St Albans,

Ofcourse they should get psychic help, ANYTHING that might help to get Madeleine back or find out what happened to her.
Yes children are going missing everyday, most of them are much older and want to be missing, and what are the Mccanns supposed to do!!! Good on them, atleast they know they are doing everything they can.

Pam, Upper Hutt, New Zealand

Maddie is out there somewhere, there are perfectly down-to-earth reasons for her disappearance- praying to God or eliciting psychic help may offer pschological comfort but won't help- only persistent work by police.

Chris Jerram, Auckland, New Zealand

Chris Jerram, Auckland, New Zealand

If any of these clairvoyants know where she is, why don't they go and get her? And then pick up the reward money.

Daft stuff.

Lorna Baxter, Manchester, England

And "Paul in London"- how can you call the case of a missing child an "on going joke"??! Be careful how you phrase things.

Nicola , Cumbria, UK

My goodness it must be at least 2 or 3 days since the last McCann story. They must be getting desparate to dream up new ways of making headlines. They have done the pope, now its a psychic. What next? Alien abduction.

Enough.

H, London,

Let's remind us all here that these two are suspects. Insead of accepting their status and remain calm until things get sorted , they've manipulate everyone by launching an attack on the P.J-with the help of the B.press and their powerful friends- Now for the people who think the British police is perfect and the Portuguese incompetent, I remind you they confused an innocent white Brazilian with an Islamic terrorist and that the parents of Rhyss Jones are still waiting for the police to find the killer of their son and that they have not have half the support the McCanns have , maybe because the mum works at Tesco and the dad doesn't have friends in the media and the government?

Ron, London, uk

Where's the story that appeared yesterday, that stated the McCanns were trying to get their suspect status lifted?

Vicky Batley, Barnsley, South Yorkshire

A sex offenders register to tell police when they are travelling ? Why in first place did the British police allow so many sex offenders to travel to the Algarve?
Only the PJ is criticized, but the private investigators that are being paid by the McCann have no clue of where Madeleine is. An Arguido can refuse to answer any question, as rights that protect him, a witness has to answer to all the questions she is asked.

Maria, Lisbon,

Fread Smith, of London - There are some who would say that relying on God is mis-placed trust. Whether or not you or I believe in God, phsyics, or tea-leaves, I commend the McCanns for using every available resource to help find their daughter.
If you believe that there is an all-knowing, all-powerful being watching over us, then why not believe that it is able to communicate to us through some people. Whether you call them a medium or a messiah, if somebody can find out information through 'supernatural' methods, then why not try?

Roland, Australia

Roland, Perth, Australia

I think they should be contacting the criminal fringe and attempting to have investigators infiltrate.

Emma H., Ottawa, CAN

Surly there trust is with God? not some crank.

Fread Smith, London, Earth

This is very sad - but it reminds me of Princess Diana's death, when her fortune teller was shocked. If she'd been any good, surely she'd...?

neil, waterford, ireland

Personally speaking I would be very sceptical of so-called
clairvoyants, psychics, mediums etc. Even if there were something in it, it is now so long since Madeleine's dissapearance that I expect the trail would have turned cold
for a would be clairvoyant investigator.

James, Ireland

James Bishop, Galway, Ireland

Its probably illegal in Portugal.

mike gee, bournemouth, uk

A psychic is nothing more than a glorified con man/woman. Stay away from them. All they'd do and yes Gordan Smith does it too, is cold read the McCann's. Not only that, the amount of info they will have filtered from the news makes any reading pointless, but again, any reading is pointless as Mediums just cold read and use other means of deluding the gullible.

Steve, London,

How can any half intellegent person believe in this psychic rubbish; I thought they were doctors!
Too much media and police time has been dedicated to this case. If 10% as much had been spent on other cases I'm sure a number of missing children would have been found.

George, Lisbon, Portugal

god luck to the mc canns, anything should be considered to find this precious little girl. i would do exactly the same if it was my daughter!

justine kempton, burnham on sea, somerset

Well they've already tried one form of silly mumbo jumbo with the pope, so I guess its no surprise they're gullible and desperate enough to try others too.

James, Derby,

Dear Times Editor,

I have opened the page concerning yet again another tedious Mccann story , not out of any interest for the story but because I am confused as to why you go on about this case so much.

Just writing this to let you know in case you count the amount of "hits" you get and think that people actually care.

Yours sincerely bored

silly ex pat, Lisores, Afghanistan

This is clutching at straws,conversely what else can they do? I don't dare to imagine how the McCanns feel. I will say one thing and that is each day I wish she would be returned and this could end.
This must be the prayer of milions and my heart not only goes out to Madeleine but to all who have not got their kith and kin near them.

One who is greater will bless you and keep you. May God hold you all in his hand.

Anne, Herts UK,

I beieve that psychics are a valid resourse and Sally Morgan will help shes great. This is no joke for the McCanns I wish all famillies could have the same exposure as any parent must go through hell when they have had their child taken away from them.

Tammy, Nottinghamshire, UK

I think at this stage anything is worth a try!

Sarah, Nottingham, UK

Children are going missing every day, they do not get the same exposure, please stop this on going joke.

Paul, London,

Psychic help ?
I think all of the above need Psychiatric help

Mike, Berlin,

Don't bother with a psychic, try a traditional horary astrologer instead. This method is simple and very accurate in the hands of an expert. John Frawley is the best.

H. Walker, Perth,

My thoughts and prayers are for Madeleine and her family always. I so dearly hope she is found soon. God bless them.

Amanda, Roanoke, Virginia

i feel bad for them because their mistake was leaving the children alone in these times. However i am sure they are in enough pain and accusing them is simply too much for them to bear. Someone was watching and tourists are fair game

j webb, Houston, US/Texas

Gordon Smith, the best there is , i have emailed there site from the beginning , telling them , that Gordon had offered his help . even high public figures have asked him , when she first went missing , but he said he would not interfere , until they asked him for help. if this man said she has pasted over , its over, Gordon is the best and only accurate medium ,
Lets all hope for the best , if she is alive he will know.

David Anderson, Gloss , UK

I will cry for days when she is found......thinking of you Madeleine....

Claire Simmons, dartford kent, uk

I read somewhere that gerry may be a freemason if so that might explain the donation side from the likes of branson etc is he a mason....?,after all their rules are to help one another in times of trouble etc, and they are all part of the rich society or well to do, But I wont pass any judgment on the mccans its just not fair, their child is missing and she needs to be found, who ever is spreading rumors and gossip on either side should stop straight away, I am a big believer in what goes around comes around .... god will be the judge and punish whoever is responsible one way or another...

neil, mirfield, west yorkshire

I personally dont understand any of this, why are such high profile people involved, millions in donations 100s and thousands £s of private money donated, when all the odds at the moment are stacked against them....? after all there is no evidence of abduction at all that has been reported?, it all seems very strange to me,I do know one thing and that is somebody somewhere knows what happened that night,and whether the parents had anything to do with it or not, the truth will come out one day, but never in my life have I ever seen so much financial support,there have been loads of kidnapped children and none have had this amount of money thrown at them.... whats going on...?

neil, mirfield, west yorkshire

i hope the psychic can help them they need all the help anyone can give them. i have 3 children and if anything happened them i dont know what i would do.they are my life as maddie is to jerry and kate.god bless yous all of yous.......

PATRICIA, antrim, northern ireland

i dont think they could have killed her shes there daughter theres no way they could do that .. my heart goes out to them..
i have a little nephew n i couldn believe if anything happened to him..... i would be so happy if she was found. xxxxxxxxxxxxxx
