  • Closed Accounts Posts: 6,414 ✭✭✭kraggy


    She's the kid who went missing in England 3 weeks ago.

    Seems she was abducted but has been found alive.

    Not pretty enough for headline news so, that must be why no one knows about it.

    No idea. They're making it up as they go - 24 hour news and all that. Just that she was found under a bed today.

    Takes the idea of "hide and go seek" to a whole new level really.

    The uncle of shannon is quoted as saying that '' Kate and jerry Mcann only did what any other well of familys would do with access to media ,and to highlight their missing daughters case '' ....although they got the meida coverage with or without their consent , still it seems no hangs up about that by shannons uncle .

    God! That's brilliant! Wonder what happened to her though during these weeks.
    This news must give the McCann's some hope.

    Why do people care what makes Sky news? So what if the McCanns only got so much coverage because of their status and so what if this case didn't because, as you put it, they're "not pretty enough." Sky News are just trying to fill time and keep people hooked on updates, so it is hardly a bad thing that they didn't obsess over this one too.

    They just said on Today FM that the house she was found in was about a mile from her home.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,408 ✭✭✭Huggles


    Hmmm found under the bed of a 39 year old man. He is a relative of the step father apparently.

    Strange.

    Edit: Seems shes now the subject of a police protection order. Getting more sinister now.
