The mortgage crisis has developed into the worst real estate crisis since the Great Depression, according to the latest report from Housing Predictor. Hundreds of thousands of conventional mortgage borrowers are being foreclosed.

The crisis not only has the ability to cause a recession, according to the new Housing Predictor report, but analysts only question it’s severity and how much of an impact it will have on the overall U.S. economy.

Detectives investigating the disappearance of Madeleine McCann are still considering whether she was kidnapped.

The country’s biggest-ever child exploitation operation is started:
Paulo Rebelo is one of Portugal’s most senior detectives, and he was speaking after 80 suspected paedophiles were arrested in this during the raids.

Kate and Gerry McCann will welcome that. They have been official suspects for more than a month.

British police had been asked to take DNA samples and fingerprints from all holidaymakers at the resort where Madeleine disappeared.

German and Dutch police are also believed to have been asked to trace and interview guests who were staying at the Ocean Club resort in Praia da Luz on May 3.

A team of Portuguese detectives visited again the ground-floor apartment where the McCanns stayed. A small service area beneath the apartment took theyr attention particularly.

The McCanns apartment has not been occupied since the beginning of August. At this time a British sniffer dog reportedly signalled that it might have discovered traces of a corpse.

Also new: Clarence Mitchell, spokesman for the McCanns, said that the McCanns wish to make it categorically clear: they have never used sedatives on their children.

The Zodiac Killer is a serial killer who operated in Northern California in the late 1960s. His identity remains unknown.

The Zodiac coined his name in a series of taunting letters he sent to the press. His letters included four cryptograms (or ciphers), three of which have yet to be solved.

The Zodiac murdered five known victims in Benicia, Vallejo, Lake Berryessa, and San Francisco between December 1968 and October 1969. Four men and three women between the ages of 16 and 29 were targeted. Others have also been suspected to be Zodiac victims, but there has been thus far no conclusive evidence to link them to the killer.

In April 2004, the San Francisco Police Department marked the case "inactive", but reopened it some time before March 2007. The case remains open in other jurisdictions as well.

Today it emerged that he is facing trial for inflicting a severe beating on innocent man along with two other police officers.

The Chief Inspector is the second officer involved in the case to be implicated in the violent treatment of police suspects.

Disgraced inquiry head Goncalo Amaral — who was last week spectacularly kicked off the case after he said British police were being manipulated by Madeleine’s parents Kate and Gerry — is fighting claims he covered up the beating of another missing girl’s mother.

Leonor Cipriano, 36, says she was forced to kneel on glass ashtrays with a bag over her head as police repeatedly hit her during almost 48 hours of questioning.

Traces of Madeleine McCann's body were found on a Portuguese beach weeks after she was reported missing, during tests by a former detective renowned for locating abducted children.

Forensic analysis by retired South African police superintendent Danie Krugel claimed to reveal Madeleine's body had either been temporarily buried or was still beneath the beach at Praia da Luz, the resort from where she disappeared on 3 May.

The Portuguese detective leading the investigation into the disappearance of Madeleine McCann today accused British police of helping her parents' defence rather than assist their attempts to find the truth.

Chief Inspector Goncalo Amaral claimed that British officers where following up leads provided by Kate and Gerry McCann rather than regarding them as suspects in killing their daughter.
