British Paedophile Named As Madeleine Suspect
Breaking News12:36am UK, Friday May 22, 2009
A convicted British paedophile has been named as a possible suspect in the disappearance of Madeleine McCann.
Raymond Hewlett has served several jail terms for child sex crimes
Sky News sources say Raymond Hewlett was living in Tavira, a coastal town between Faro and the Spanish border, when Madeleine disappeared on May 3 2007.
Tavira is about an hour's drive from Praia da Luz, where Madeleine vanished while on holiday with her family.
It is understood the former soldier was tracked down in Germany, where he was being treated in hospital for cancer.
Reports said Hewlett, 64, has a long record of sex attacks on young girls and is wanted by police in the UK and Ireland.
Since Maddie's disappearance he has gone back on the run, it is claimed.
Hewlett has reportedly been jailed several times for sexual offences against young girls.
Gerry and Kate McCann are being kept up to date with the development, their spokesman Clarence Mitchell said.
He told Sky News Online: "We are aware of Raymond Hewlett and the claims that are being made in some newspapers about him.
"The investigators searching for Madeleine are currently looking into the circumstances surrounding these claims.
"Mr Hewlett is an individual of interest to the Madeleine investigation.
"However, I would stress that it's just one line of inquiry among several, other than that I can't go into further detail."
Madeleine and how she would look now aged six
The alarm was raised about Hewlett by a couple who met him while on holiday in Portugal, the Daily Mirror said.
When Alan and Cindy Thompson met the convict, he was living with his wife and six children in a converted Dodge truck travelling from campsite to campsite.
Mr Thompson told the Mirror: "Hewlett befriended us but kept quiet about his terrible past.
"We were mortified and disgusted to discover the truth."
They also described a conversation in which Hewlett said he was approached by some "Gipsy tourists" offering to buy his daughter just before Madeleine went missing.
Mrs Thompson said: "We didn't think too much of this at the time.
"Ray and his family led a desperate hand-to-mouth lifestyle and someone may have thought he'd be tempted to sell one of his six children."
They also recalled him mentioning a "business" trip to Morocco where there were several alleged sightings of Madeleine in the months after her disappearance.

New Maddie McCann suspect: Police hunt British paedophile living an hour's drive from Praia da Luz

'Danger to children': Police are hunting Maddie suspect Raymond Hewlett
A British paedophile was the new focus of the hunt for Madeleine McCann last night.
Former soldier Raymond Hewlett was living just an hour's drive from the resort of Praia da Luz when she disappeared in May 2007.
He has a long record of sex attacks on young girls and is wanted by police in the UK and Ireland. Since Maddie's disappearance he has gone back on the run.
Now, in a dramatic development, detectives working for Kate and Gerry McCann have flown to Portugal after a tip-off about 64-year-old Hewlett.
Sources close to the investigation said they were told he spoke to friends about Maddie in such a way that they suspected he was involved or knew what had happened to the three-year-old.
Hewlett is described by detectives as 'cunning' and a 'danger to children' and operates by cruising in a van. He has posed as a police officer and befriended families to get access to their children.
The McCanns have never given up hope of finding their daughter.

Hewlett has a long record of sex attacks on young girls
A British paedophile who is a suspect in the Madeleine McCann case could be brought back to the UK to be quizzed over a number sex attacks.
Former soldier Raymond Hewlett, who has become the new focus of the investigation into the child's disappearance, is being treated for throat cancer at a hospital in Germany.
He was living just an hour's drive from the resort of Praia da Luz when she disappeared in May 2007.
Hewlett has a long record of sex attacks on young girls and is wanted by police in the UK and Ireland.
According to the Evening Standard, two police forces as well as Leicestershire Police held a conference call yesterday to decide how to proceed. Manchester police want to quiz him over the abduction and abuse of an eight-year-old girl in 1975 while West Yorkshire police have said they want to quiz him over a number of 'serious offences'.
In a separate development, detectives working for Kate and Gerry McCann have flown to Germany to speak to 64-year-old Hewlett, where he is being treated.
Sources close to the investigation claimed they were told he spoke to friends about Maddie in such a way that they suspected he was involved or knew what had happened to the three-year-old.
The Standard added that investigators will want to know why Hewlett checked out of a hospital in the Algarve, Portugal, where he was being treated for cancer only to reappear in Germany.
Hewlett is described by detectives as 'cunning' and a 'danger to children' and operates by cruising in a van. He has posed as a police officer and befriended families to get access to their children.
Appeal: Madeleine McCann aged three and how she might look now
The McCanns have never given up hope of finding their daughter. Earlier this month they marked the second anniversary of her disappearance from their holiday apartment by releasing two new pictures to help the hunt.
One was a striking computer-aided image of what she would look like today, at six.
Another was a detailed sketch of a suspect seen acting suspiciously near their Algarve holiday complex.
The team searching for Maddie is headed by two retired UK policemen, former Detective Inspector Dave Edgar, 52, and former Detective Sergeant Arthur Cowley, 57, who has worked on 'cold case reviews' of old crimes.
Mr Edgar has more than 30 years' experience with the Royal Ulster Constabulary and Cheshire Police.
He was awarded a judge's commendation for his work on the murder of father-of-four Garry Newlove, who was kicked to death by a teenage gang outside his Warrington home in 2007.
Mr Edgar and Mr Cowley now run the Alpha Investigations Group and have been hired by the Find Madeleine Fund to investigate missed leads.
They are said to have given the McCanns fresh hope after they suffered disappointments working with other private detectives, including the expensive Spanish firm Metodo 3.

Alan, 56, and Cindy, 47, struck up a friendship with Hewlett and German wife Mariana, 33, after first meeting them in Portugal three years ago.
Cindy said:" Ray was living along the Algarve and Spanish coast.
" He survived by selling things he had found. Mariana also made money by busking on the streets in tourist areas - playing a tin-whistle while operating a puppet.
Ray was quiet and unassuming and he played the doting father, never letting his children stray too far." It was only after they returned from the Algarve that the Thompsons got a text message from another holidaymaker they had met alerting them to Hewlett's past.
Cindy said she later discovered others who were in the same travelling community did know his horrible secret.
She said:" They didn't want to report Hewlett for fear of upsetting Mariana.
" I find it incredible and incomprehensible that people could turn their backs on a known convicted paedophile still wanted for questioning about outstanding offences.
" We owe it to Madeleine and her family to speak out about Raymond Hewlett. We do not know he abducted Madeleine but our information should be examined."
The Mirror yesterday handed details of Hewlett's whereabouts to cold case teams in West Yorkshire and Greater Manchester.
His details were also passed to Leices-tershirPolice, the McCanns' home force.
A spokesman said they will pass the Mirror's file to Portuguese police, adding:" It remains a Portuguese investigation." snip

I'm angry already, klaas...that this piece of slime has been free to continue to do who knows what? At least 2 police forces in the UK have supposedly been looking for him for crimes including the possible murder of a child. Police in Northern Ireland too...for attempted abductions. How hard can they have been looking? His sentences for previous crimes were an insult to his victims and set him loose to prey upon innocent children again.
And I'll be plenty more angry if he is the scum who took Madeleine, folk who knew him in Portugal knew of his sordid history why didn't they inform the police?

May 2007. He had apparently been receiving treatment for cancer at a hospital in Faro on May 2008 as well as at a hospital just across the Spanish border.
Holidaymakers on the 'wild campsite' where he stayed described him as an 'odd man' who was seen with up to five children in an old delivery van.
French tourist Anne Parisot, 70, said: 'Most of the time he was cooped up in the van and made it clear no one should go over. He seemed quite cold.'
There are unconfirmed reports that Hewlett has been questioned by Portuguese police about Madeleine and was given an alibi by a girl of 15 but other reports suggest officers never interviewed him face to face.
Hewlett and his family apparently left Portugal sometime last year and headed for Germany, his partner's country of birth.
He and his family are apparently living in an apartment overlooking a kindergarten but he is in the Universitatsklinikum Aachen Hospital.
West Yorkshire police want to question him about the indecent assault allegation, which emerged during their investigation into the 1975 murder of 11-year-old Lesley Molseed - which another man was convicted of.

The ex-head of the police inquiry into Madeleine McCann's disappearance has been convicted of falsifying documents in another case, Portuguese media say.
Goncalo Amaral was given an 18-month suspended sentence by a court in Faro in connection with an alleged attack on the mother of another missing girl.
Madeleine's parents, Kate and Gerry McCann, are planning to sue Mr Amaral.
It follows what they say are his claims that Madeleine was dead and they were involved in concealing her body. snip

A Portuguese police chief who previously ran the Madeleine McCann inquiry has been given a suspended jail term over an unrelated case.
Mr Amaral previously led the inquiry into Madeleine's disappearance
Goncalo Amaral was convicted of perjury after an alleged attack on the mother of another missing girl.
He was among five officers of the Policia Judiciara in Portimao accused of "scenes of aggression" against Leonor Cipriano, whose nine-year-old daughter, Joana, vanished in September 2004. snip

This is an older article about the Portuguese police officers and their charges.
Scroll down about half way and there's a picture of Leonor Cipriano, the officers swore under oath the injuries were caused when she threw herself down some stairs.

Madeleine 'suspect' urged to helpMadeleine 'suspect' urged to help
pa.press.net
A convicted paedophile should "see sense" and co-operate with private investigators searching for Madeleine McCann, a spokesman for the child's family has said.
The McCanns' investigation team wants to interview 64-year-old Raymond Hewlett in the next few days in the hope he can shed some light on the little girl's disappearance.
Hewlett is alleged to have been staying near the McCanns' holiday flat in Praia da Luz, Portugal, when she went missing in May 2007.
UK-born Hewlett, who previously lived in Blackpool and Telford, is reportedly being treated for throat cancer in hospital in the German city of Aachen,
He was jailed several times for sexually assaulting young girls and is now wanted for questioning by British detectives in connection with a separate indecent assault.
The McCanns hope that once officers from West Yorkshire Police have questioned the former soldier, their investigators will speak to him, despite reports he is seriously ill in intensive care.
Clarence Mitchell, Kate and Gerry McCann's spokesman, said: "Mr Hewlett has denied any involvement in Madeleine's abduction.
"Our investigators hope he will see sense and co-operate by giving them whatever information is needed so they can eliminate him from the investigation. It's clear the man is ill and it is clear he has information that our investigators need. It is also clear that our investigators will be speaking to him in the near future."
It is understood that before the McCanns' team can speak to Hewlett, British officers will interview him in connection with an indecent assault in 1975.
Sources close to the investigation say they think both interviews will take place in "a matter of days, not weeks".

Maddie paedophile’ under investigation for four monthsBy Mail On Sunday Reporter
Last updated at 11:32 PM on 23rd May 2009
Comments (0) Add to My Stories Convicted paedophile: Raymond Hewlett pictured in a police mugshot taken in 1995
Detectives have been investigating the predatory paedophile who was living in Portugal near to where Madeleine McCann disappeared for the past four months.
Former police officers hired by the McCann family learned in February that Raymond Hewlett, 64, had been living in the Algarve and have been probing his movements and alibis.
But they never got the chance to speak to Hewlett, a former soldier, because he had already moved to Germany where he is being treated for throat cancer.
‘Some of his alibis didn’t quite stand up,’ said a source close to the family.
But despite concerns about his movements on the night Madeleine disappeared in May 2007, and sinister comments he allegedly made about her, he is not thought to be a strong suspect.
Clarence Mitchell, spokesman for the McCanns, said he was a ‘person of interest’ but stressed that Hewlett was ‘one lead among a number’.
He added: ‘We are looking into the claims surrounding him, as we are with other people who would make equally big headlines.’
Reports that Portuguese detectives ruled out Hewlett as a suspect early in the inquiry after interviewing him were dismissed by sources.
‘It is our understanding that the Policia Judiciaria in Portugal did not know of his existence until they were alerted by the investigators working for the McCanns,’ one source said.
‘The Policia Judiciaria have helped the investigators and wanted to get face-to-face with him themselves, but he had already moved to Germany.’
Hewlett has a long record of sex attacks on young girls and has been jailed several times.

Paedo Raymond Hewlett admits visiting Maddie holiday flats EXCLUSIVE by Simon Wright 23/05/2009
Suspect's shock confession to holiday couple: 'I know Maddie resort very well..I’ve parked near flat several times.'
The British paedophile linked to the disappearance of Madeleine McCann has sensationally confessed to being outside her holiday apartment “many times”.
Convicted pervert Raymond Hewlett, 64, has admitted knowing the resort where the McCanns were holidaying “very well” and said he had parked a van close to their complex on several occasions.
And last night a man who shared a Morocco campsite with Hewlett and his family for three months described how the drifter was obsessed with the missing youngster.
Speaking exclusively to the Sunday Mirror, former Scots Guard Peter Verran, 46, revealed how Hewlett, his German wife Mariana, 33, and their six children arrived at the campsite where he was holidaying in Chefchaaouen in a battered Dodge truck. It was May 2007 – shortly after Madeleine’s disappearance.
“He seemed like an old hippy traveller who had dropped out,” said Peter, who runs an internet business selling antiques and collectibles from his home in Fowey, Cornwall.
“We got talking at the toilet block. He brought Madeleine up straight away. He said his three-year-old daughter looked like her.
“He was worried that because there had been reports that Madeleine may have been spirited away to Morocco, people might think his child was her. Then he suddenly said, ‘Madeleine’s not in Morocco’.
“I asked him what he meant and he said he knew Praia Da Luz really well. He knew the Ocean Club complex where the McCanns had been staying. He said he’d been there many times and had often parked his van close to the apartment.
“He said he knew the layout of the place, the flat and the restaurant where the McCanns and their friends had been eating when Maddie disappeared. He had a lot of detail about the layout. He said there was no way that the child could be taken without the parents seeing. He said they were lying.”
Yesterday it emerged that Portuguese police did speak to Hewlett about Madeleine’s disappearance – but ruled him out as a suspect.
Peter also revealed that pothead Hewlett made wild and unfounded claims that the McCanns – both doctors, from Rothley, Leics – were involved in their daughter’s disappearance.
“One of Hewlett’s theories was that there had been an accident and Kate and Gerry had killed her and were trying to cover it up,” said Peter.
“He even made the crazy suggestion that her mum and dad had sold her to gipsies. He said it was common knowledge among locals that Praia Da Luz in general and the Ocean Club in particular was a magnet for Romanian gipsies who abduct and then traffic children.
"I asked him why he’d left and come to Morocco. He told me he’d had to leave Portugal in a hurry. He said he’d packed his family up in half an hour and just driven out of the area. That was just after Maddie was taken.”
Peter, who is partially disabled, met his Moroccan wife Nisrine, 25, when he was holidaying in Agadir.
They married in May 2007 and when they encountered Hewlett at the remote campsite, they were enjoying an extended honeymoon touring the country in a camper van.

FIEND IN THE FRAME
Maddie suspect’s past fits crime
By Keith Gladdis, 24/05/2009
A COP who interrogated Madeleine McCann suspect Raymond Hewlett says the case carries all the hallmarks of the sick sex beast.
Former Detective Superintendent Trevor Wilkinson spent years on the trail of the convicted paedophile, who was in Portugal when Maddie vanished two years ago.
And Mr Wilkinson told the News of the World the snatching of the child from her holiday apartment matches the predator's offending profile.
He said: "He is constantly looking for prey and we know he is prepared to enter a property to get to a child, which he's done."
Hewlett, 64, critically ill with cancer in a German hospital, has been jailed three times for kidnap and molesting young girls and is connected to a string of other attacks on kids.
Mr Wilkinson questioned him in 1992 while investigating the 1975 murder of 11-year old Lesley Molseed in Rochdale.
Detectives hired by Kate and Gerry McCann hope to quiz the pervert this week.
They plan to grill him about his whereabouts when Maddie went missing and about other paedos in Portugal. Ex-detective Dave Edgar and his team have gathered new information in the Algarve and say there is a strong possibility Maddie is alive.
A source said: "Dave is keeping an open mind on Hewlett."
Last night Hewlett's partner, Marianne Schmucker, said: "He is a very sick man and deserves to be left alone.
"He had nothing at all to do with this crime."

Raymond Hewlett, 64, has served several jail sentences for sexually assaulting young girls and is also wanted for questioning by British detectives for at least one unresolved sexual offence.
Mr Hewlett, a former soldier, was allegedly staying with his family at a campsite close to Praia da Luz in Portugal, where Madeleine McCann went missing in May 2007.
Police officers yesterday interviewed Alan and Cindy Thompson at a hotel in Canary Wharf, London, over their claim that Mr Hewlett was staying in a converted motor home with his German wife and their six children only an hour from the McCanns. Mr Hewlett allegedly told the couple he had been approached by "Gypsy travellers" offering to buy his daughter – just before Madeleine went missing on 3 May 2007.
He also talked about a business trip to Morocco, where there were several alleged sightings of the little girl in the first year after she disappeared, according to Mr and Mrs Thompson, who were holidaying in the Algarve at the time. The couple claim he told them he was 30 miles away in the market town of Fuesta when Madeleine vanished but it is unclear whether Portuguese police were ever aware of him.
There were unconfirmed reports yesterday that Mr and Mrs Thompson tried unsuccessfully to contact British detectives about their concerns about Mr Hewlett in the past.
The former Scots Guard, who is seriously ill in a German hospital after undergoing an operation for throat cancer, is under no obligation to speak to the McCanns' detectives but the couple hope he will agree to be interviewed within the next few days.
Clarence Mitchell, the McCanns' spokesman, said: "Mr Hewlett has denied any involvement in Madeleine's abduction. Our investigators hope he will see sense and co-operate by giving them whatever information is needed so they can eliminate him from the investigation. It's clear the man is ill and it's clear he has information that our investigators need. It is also clear that our investigators will be speaking to him in the near future."
Meanwhile, West Yorkshire police yesterday confirmed that they are awaiting permission from German authorities to interview Mr Hewlett over an unsolved indecent assault in 1975. He was first convicted of abducting and sexually assaulting a neighbour's 12-year-old daughter in 1972.
He is also under investigation by German authorities after his son, David, died falling from the back of a van that Mr Hewlett was driving from Portugal to Germany. Another son, Wayne Hewlett, has spoken out against his father in recent days, branding him a "monster" and "despicable".
Leicestershire police, which handle the British end of the McCann inquiry, refused to comment but said they would pass on any new information to Portuguese police, who remained in charge of the investigation.
