The Articles to be used in an application to the ECHR must be brought to the attention of the national courts at every hearing. In this case that means in the court of the first instance, in the appeal court and in the supreme court.
It is so easy to get confused when mains media use blinkered jargon and blatant hog wash to bamboozle the faithdul- not so much the-uninterested in justice for the McCanns - considering what the hell justice they are seeking?
Article 8 is not mentioned in the three court hearings. which it must be -to be considered. The SC ruled Amaral had no case to answer from the McCanns claims. ie they failed to produce any evidence which would lift the suspision/theory of the Pj at the time of MBM going 'missing'.
They failed to produce indepentant medical evidence of their claims about mental health of all 5 members of the family- even though one may be dead.
They failed to produce evidence that large scale of the global population stopped looking for their daughter as a result of Sr Amarals book. First having failed to produce evidence that the global population was in fact looking in the first place.
They also failed to produce evidence of their chosen theory to thwart the PJ's theory or to prove theirs wrong. In fact it was ruled they failed by not being compliant with a reconstruction. Which they claimed would not find MBM ,but then neither would spending search money on PR and lawyers , but hey...
So how was their
good name affected? did they lose their jobs? become homeless?
Hell no! the exact opposite!
presumed innocent? they were while they were under investigation and
arrested invited for questioning as suspects/arguidos. There is no evidence to the contrary.
Edited: to make the McCanns look innocent and imply they are being tortured by bloody foriegners. the fking w@kers and tweedle dee tweedle dumb being named here.
