McCann family spokesperson: Police sifting through 'mammoth' amount of leads in search for Madeleine
There's new hope in the case of little Madeleine McCann, who has been missing for five years. She disappeared during a family vacation in Portugal when she was just a toddler. Now, Scotland Yard is saying they have reason to believe she could still be alive.
British police released a composite photo of what Madeleine might look like today. She would turn 9 next week. The lead British investigator is asking Portuguese police to re-open the case.
This morning, McCann family friend and spokesperson Clarence Mitchell talks with Ashleigh Banfield on "Early Start" where he explains the 'mammoth' amount of information investigators are reviewing in an effort to find Madeleine. He says it's a combination of new and old leads that have led to renewed interest in the case.
"There are 195 potential leads, or investigative opportunities as the police like to call them, contained within historic file. That's something like 40,000 pieces of information - 100,000 pages. It's a mammoth task police have to go through," he says.
"Police are saying these 200 leads are historic, and there's new information that they won't specify," Mitchell adds. He explains the British investigators are organizing all this information to turn over to Portuguese police to reopen the investigation.
In this second video, Mitchell explains that the McCann family is no longer under suspicion and is working fervently with police to find their daughter.
Rep. Schweikert on SCOTUS immigration case: 'Political theater' surrounding law
Today, the law that put Arizona in the immigration-enforcement business heads to the high court.
Lower courts blocked four key parts of the law. The blocked provisions would:
– require state and local police to check the status of suspected illegal immigrants whom they've stopped or arrested for other reasons.
– make it a state crime for illegal immigrants to not possess federal registration cards.
– make it a state crime for illegal immigrants to work, or try to get work.
– allow state and local police to arrest illegal immigrants without a warrant if there's probable cause that these people committed crimes that would result in deportation.
The courts say the state's "interference" is making matters worse. Arizona says the issue is safety and the federal government isn't doing enough. And it appears many people agree. A new poll finds 68% of people nationwide support the law, just over a quarter disapprove.
Former Rep. David Schweikert (R-Ariz.) talks with Zoraida on the case before the Supreme Court.
