Portuguese cop says the McCanns 'are still suspects'!

[Eleanor]

It is really very simple. The Portuguese Supreme Court stated that the McCanns cannot be seen as having been cleared just because the case was archived. In other words, they could still be made suspects again should new evidence be found which undermines their version of events.

Basically, the door is still open to all scenarios.

The McCanns and Brueckner together?  That would be interesting.

It was the McCanns who claimed to be cleared, and people in the UK chose to believe them. The Portuguese authorities never said they were. They announced when they archived it that the case could be reopened if new evidence emerged.

Which it has been, and were the McCanns reconstituted arguidos?  No.  Why not then, if they are still suspects?

The case was reopened in 2013.

Around the time the MET released e-fits of 'the abductor'.

And your point is?  According to Amaral the McCanns are still suspects.  Where is the evidence for this?

[Wonderfulspam]

Remember that time when the McCanns were re-interviewed by the PJ?
Me neither.

It would seem the McCann's have ruled out CB completely now, as they're also doubling down on their assertion that they are going to keep searching. Perhaps SY have briefed them on the nature of HCW's evidence.
This still leaves them all as suspects, although for different investigative bodies.

Virtually goes for the majority of the world though. If new evidence comes to light. Like an NFA in the U.K

Everyone's a suspect until they're not [Generic cop show reference].
Not only are they not to be ruled out, they're to be ruled in.

Yeah, the McCanns aren't at all convinced by HCW's proclamation, but davel is.

[Venturi Swirl]

Has anyone told Murat and all the other ex-arguidos that they are still suspects too?

[Mr Gray]

Anyone who thinks the McCanns are still suspects is a fool.

You're right, the police were able to rule them out entirely on account of all the abduction evidence.
Which was what again?

Not in Portugal due to the statute of limitation... That means the mccanns are not suspects and can never be in the future
