Death mystery of Nelson man
after Maddie hunt |

Quote from Stevo |
In May 2007,
a former British paratrooper, Colin Sahlke,
went to Praia da Luz to search for Madeleine
McCann. He sold his possessions and gave up
his job and his rented home to finance the
search.
Under strange circumstances almost 3 years
later, Sahlke suddenly died in bed on April
19, 2010. His death is a mystery and the
traces of what caused his death are gone
forever—Sahlke was cremated in Skipton on
April 29, 2010. At the time of writing in
early June 2010, the family still do not
know the cause of death. |

Thank you Kate. You have not
seen fit to credit those who you
know did search for Madeleine
from the hotels that you were
not in. I know they all turned
out and you know it too. The
ordinary folk did turn out, as
did the late Colin Salhke who
died last year. A man who sold
up and went to search under
every overturned boat and ditch.
He and Steve Taylor did a
physical search.
And I did too as you well know.
That time was given in good
faith by all of us for no
reward. You know that a thank
you is in order not least to the
memory of Colin as he cannot
search using his own funds for
your daughter anymore as he is
dead. I am still alive, very
much so and searching for your
daughter at my expense. I would
thank anyone who did this for me
or my family.
You well know that the searching
was done by ordinary persons as
soon as you shouted, the staff
and locals stayed up through the
night in a certain hotel. I
stayed in that hotel. So I know
first hand. Thank you for
chucking this back in my face. I
should have spent the money
searching for your daughter on
my own grandchildren but I
considered my vocation and
skills and went. I went to use
energy in a search that is find
where a child could hide or be
hidden. I am sorry your book
dismisses the acts of others. I
really feel sick now I really
do. I feel used, and I feel sad.
But most of all there is this
feeling of worthlessness to
those who did search. Right that
wrong now. I pray on my rosary
you will,

Historyholmes, don't feel
bitter. You and Colin and Steve
and countless others did what
you thought was right, out of
compassion and love. And you did
it at the right time. If Maddie
was to be found, she would have
been found then, thanks to all
those volunteers. The truth will
come out. A work of fiction will
not change anything, except to
make others feel used.

People often forget those who
helped and by the sounds of it a
few of you gave not just money
but you valuble time. The best
thing you can do now is not keep
throwing your money at this or
your time because the world is a
vast place and non of us has the
money to search it all. Just
pray to your god and hope. The
truth will come out and I hope
no others get hurt by its
outcome.

you are not worthless you are a
very kind person who donated
time and money to a cause you
felt compelled to, and the world
would be a much better place if
it was filled with people like
you and not those who are
selfish and selfcentered. your
children and grandchildren have
a wonderful role model in you

Hi
Kate and Gerry Just wanted to say a
quick hello. You may recall we met on
the beach in Praia da Luz when we put up
the big billboard. I still think about
you both from time to time as I watch my
own kids grow. I cannot imagine the pain
you still go through. Just to let you
know I still care. I was also horrified
to find that people are still posting
theories and comments on those other
sites. shocking that these people are so
sad as to waste their time doing stuff
like that. Gave them a wee bit of my
mind tonight! Take care and keep up the
faith and the efforts. If I can help in
anyway let me know by reply. Love to
all, Chris Lennox
