Police probe online abuse dossier aimed at McCanns

A dossier of online abuse directed at the parents of Madeleine McCann is being examined by police.

Members of the public have handed a file stretching to more than 80 pages of Tweets, Facebook posts, and forum messages aimed at Kate and Gerry McCann to Scotland Yard, according to Sky News.

The material posted by online “trolls” is said to have included suggestions that the couple should be tortured or killed.
