McCanns appeal to the European Court of Human Rights

[Sunny]

Don't you think it will be very damaging to amaral and Portugal if it's found that Portugal has denied the McCann's their human rights

I wonder what will happen if they fail at the ECHR, Davel?

[Robittybob1]

You have a cite for this, or is it just your opinion ?

Yes I can see it in the forum.  There are a lot less posts to read than a year ago IMO.

Unless the ECHR publish the result, we might never hear.

Do they publish every rejection?

Hardly a cite, more an interpretation.

I loved this bit;

"Kate and Gerry don’t care about his money, he may be cashing in on their daughter’s disappearance and their misery, but they ultimate goal is to shut him up.

Isn't it too late to shut him up? It's ten years since he released his book. It has been widely read in Portugal, other European countries and on the internet. It wasn't found libelous and they were unable to prove it damaged any investigation or search for their daughter. Shutting Amaral up will make no difference at all to anything at this juncture in my opinion.

IMO Amaral will be making a career out of his connection with this case until his dying day.  The McCanns have as much likelihood of preventing this as they had of shutting up Tony Bennett, sad but true.  You see, IMO these two ..... have no sense of decency or morals, hence why they blithely continue with their arrogance, lies and stupidity, reveling in their involvement and notoriety..

John or the Admin may have a counter showing daily posts or even just the number of visitors to the site on a year by year basis.
I know when I first arrived here  2.5 years ago the forum commonly would have over 100 people (guests) reading the forum.  Currently "95 Guests are viewing this board".  I haven't seen it over 100 for a while.

Based on past cases I don't see them failing... IMO they have a very strong case

The number of guests exceed well over 100 most days Rob, currently at 175.  In fact the number of new member registrations has risen recently compared to a few months back.  The long dark nights sees more people online too which is reflected in seasonal stats.

Are you reading the same line as I am?  "Robittybob1, Davel, carlymichelle, ShiningInLuz, Vertigo Swirl (+ 2 Hidden) and 87 Guests are viewing this board."    I'm not looking at the whole forum but the McCann board alone.

I see on this page http://miscarriageofjustice.co/index.php  visitors are over 170, but that is the whole board IMO.

Sos Rob, I thought you meant the forum stats.  I think interest in Madeleine is waning but that is to be expected after more than eleven years.

I don't know. Has it damaged the UK when they have been found guilty by the ECHR?

Quite. Shutting people up isn't in their power however many court cases they instigate. They are wasting their time and the Fund's money in my opinion.

do YOU not remember psoting this...

If, by some chance, the ECHR finds that Portugal has breached the McCann's human rights they will have achieved more than if they had defeated Amaral. They will have discredited not just him, but his entire country.

its one of your posts I beleive

Every case is unique. IMO they have a very remote chance of succeeding.

every case follows similar rules on law....on what evidence do you base your belief
