Well let's see if further funding is granted.  This investigative charade must end some time.

I don't think it's a charade at all...

Well you would think so, but it has gone on for a good number of years without any meaningful outcome, so logically it could continue indefinitely.

As they wouldn't need 6 months to box anything up that leaves explore leads

Who said anything about six months?

Six months seems to have been the norm. Interestingly though not this time it seems.

Six months seems to have been the norm. Interestingly though not this time it seems.

I believe that after so many years, and so many £millions spent it is time for the Yard to either give information on what our money is being spent on or pack it in.

It has gone on enough without any evidence that they are getting anywhere. Just my opinion but as resources are scarce and other crimes are not being adequately investigated it is time to say enough is enough.

No need to provide a cite on this one but here are two examples.

Indeed not. Another poster must have been thinking "box it up" meant putting it in cardboard boxes

LOL ... Erngath fame at last!!!

Although if you deigned to reply ... I think you might very well be spoilt for choice as far as semi-literacy and ignorance is concerned.

I rather tend to go for "mean spirited" for starters.  Good of Sherlock to advertise the forum though.

Which of the semi-literate and ignorant posts  do you find most unintentionally hilarious on here then Erngath?

What do you think of the full public enquiry when the case is shelved idea? A semi illiterate one is it?The comments on here aren't anymore depressing than some of those posted on the UK Justice Forum.Remember that the next time you talk about spite.

My "fame" is thanks to Jassi who did provide the link and did mention the comments.

Wouldn't my old English teacher be pleased, mentioned in a comment in the Sun.?
I will not be revisiting the comments .
Once was quite enough!

Normally I don't bother ... same old, same old comments and commentators ... so predictable and tiresome.  I found that one though was a hoot as I visualised the amount of head scratching it would generate.

Is this a good time to say, "No Shit, Sherlock?"

Plenty about his feelings, but nothing about his or anyone else's mental health.

I wonder how long it takes to extradite someone ?

Who are they going to extradite?  News to me

[sadie]

Indeed; which work could be a variety of things.
Including but not limited to.
New leads to follow
Box it up then consign to archive having hit the buffers.
Box it up and pass to CPS for action in UK
Box it up and pass to CPS to pass to Portuguese Ministry of Justice for action in Portugal.

Faites vos jeux.

I fancy the first and the last

1)  New leads to folllow, or maybe further evidence to obtain
2)  Box it up and pass to CPS to pass to Portuguese Ministry of Justice for action in Portugal.

With Elites and mega Organisations which appear extraordinarily good to the eye, it will take a lot of evidence to prosecute

.... and as you know, I think that Elites (untouchables) and mega 'sweet smelling' Organisations (also untouchables?) are involved.  I believe that they have deliberately developed a well publicized 'whiter than white' image whilst carry on nefarious money making schemes behind the scenes, such as trafficking

You would have thought Elites and Mega Organisations would have enough money without resorting to kidnapping. Not exactly the most lucrative pastime, especially if you don’t send a ransom note.
