I wonder why he is so vindictive? There has to be a reason.
I have ideas, as I guess others have too, but I cannot write them on here.
I think on the surface it is and it isn't a mystery.
It is not a mystery because Madeleine became a lucrative meal ticket for Amaral from the minute her case was archived. Just as he became a media personality and a celebrity on the same basis.
Madeleine represents a lot of money for Amaral.
In all of this he has been aided and abetted by sympathisers using unprecedented social media internet campaigns all of which are based on the same misinformation he has promoted assiduously for years.
Where the mystery comes in for me is that his fame and celebrity is all based on lies and misinterpretations. All of which are easily proven to be lies again dating back to the archiving report and sometimes earlier but which are still allowed to be promoted by him in the Portuguese media to this day.
As well as being promoted relentlessly by Amaral's sympathisers using all media and internet outlets available to them, including this one.
"The truth is out there" folks and at the moment the Germans are actively pursuing it. Which is why I find Amaral's machinations to throw a spanner into their works so intriguing.
