Posters are reminded of the forum rules and in particular should keep comments, RELATIVE, AMIABLE and CONSTRUCTIVE.  You could call it the RAC of the forum world.

Please do not engage in sniping, goading or name calling as such conduct will attract penalties.

Have a great weekend everyone!!
A malicious prosecution for a crime which never existed. An exposé of egregious malfeasance by public officials.

When it comes to the law cherry picking is the norm

It is clear to me that the SC have stated that the McCanns do not benefit from the POI because the investigation did not deem them innocent....that is a crystal clear  breach of the ECHR

For some reason you have ignored my post (2 before yours) in which the SC Address the POI issue.

You have not provided a cite where they claim the McCann's are innocent ...it's clear they are invoking the POI

Perhaps because the original translations made by Astro etc are actually quite accurate in most instances. Once the supporters admit the translations are good to go then they lose that stick to beat the sceptics with.

Of course they do have a supposed Portuguese speakers eg Pedro. I am sure he/she could have done a translation in 11 years, assuming they do speak Portuguese of course
I thought you were new to this scene - how do you know about Pedro?

Perhaps only new to this forum.

Gave the impression of being new to the case too unless I’m very much mistaken.

I am new to the case and new to McCann forums too. I became interested because of Brenda leyland.  I did a lot of looking before I decided which forum to join and I decided on this one.

I have spent a lot of time reading up on the case and that has involved me reading forums as well as the files.  I read a lot of posts on here for months before I committed to joining by the way.

Members are reminded that cites must be provided in accordance with the forum rules. On several occasions recently cites have been requested but never provided. Asking for a cite is not goading but compliance.

From this moment onward, posts making significant claims which are not backed up by a cite will be removed.

Moderators and Editors take note!

If cleared doesn’t relate to innocent, then not cleared, which is what the SC said, must likewise be unrelated.
