I strongly disagree with some of the accusations in the original investigation / book / video.
Just 1 example the interpretation of the clothing alerts is IMO wrong wrong wrong.
But I support Mr Amaral, and IMO the young lady is doing a great job to balance the lopsided balloon basket which was hanging at a crazy 45 degrees due to the large amounts of legal expenses cash from rich donors all piled up on one side of the basket.
Mr Amaral has been supported throughout the process by public subscription paid into a Fund set up by his friends for that purpose. He has thus been able to employ some of the best lawyers in Portugal ... and has had various disputes and a parting of the ways with some ... on occasion resulting in the case being dragged out and becoming more expensive with each delay.
I suggest had Mr Amaral being paying for this process from his own pocket the case may not have dragged on for as long as it has.
IMO as long as Mr amaral is being funded by others he will be quite happy to keep going for as long as the law allows; and if the funders are happy with their money being spent like that, and obviously they are, there is no problem.
If his appeal is allowed ... I am confident he will lose it ... but in any case he has lost something more important to himself than that ... he has lost credibility.
Not everyone sees the world through the prism of the McCann sites. The modern view is coloured by the present day events of the PJ and SY investigating the case of a missing little girl and her parents winning record damages against their main accuser.
