As she said herself as she left prison, she‘ “will go everywhere” she can to look for Joana.
And you think she has the means to do this? Not just monetarily but intellectually as well.
I suppose that it has to depend on whether or not one believes her, or even if it was just an unsafe conviction.
In the light of a Portuguese Court finding that Leonor Cipriano was beaten while in the custody of The PJ one can only wonder how on earth they found her Guilty.
How were The PJ allowed to take her out of prison in the early hours of the morning without a Lawyer and then supposedly question her 36 hours. And then return her beaten black and blue. And then say that she fell down the stairs.
All I can say is thank Christ that this never happened to Kate McCann.
But it did happen to Michael Cooke some years earlier. And didn't The British Government do well on that one. He appeared In Court with half of his teeth missing and with a very battered face.
And people wonder why The British Ambassador was in Luz tout de bloody suite. He, whoever he was wasn't having this happening again.
I don't know if The Portuguese system has improved beyond Fascism. I only know that logical decisions made by younger Judges are so often Over Ruled by old facist farts who will rule in favour of The PJ who never get it wrong.
The very least that Madeleine has done for Portugal is to expose that. And if that little girl is dead then she will have done something for the very ordinary people of Portugal. I rest my hope in that, if nothing else.
