Unfortunately the proletariat see the word paedophile and the nuances are lost.

Sorry who was rather pleased Amaral had leaked the story ? Not sceptics surely ? Why ?

What wonderful story was this he leaked?  Who would be please that a paedophile/gang/ whatever stole Maddie ?
Did the parents not try to divert that possibility by claiming a loving family had her. mind you what kind of loving 'family' would jemmy shutters, steal her without her cuddle cat, drug her...

The very fact that a paedophile was mentioned at the begining leaves me shuddering at the parents behaviour at that time and since.

I thought Ney had been ‘in the frame’ as far back as 2012 ? Surely any investigation would have been compromised at that point ?

Where did I say this guy had been "in the frame" as far back as 2012 ?

If you reread the second sentence in your post and give it a moment or two of serious contemplation, perhaps you will realise how absurd it might appear to the disinterested reader.

Amaral broke the story.  Initially some folk seemed quite pleased at that ... but I think the ramifications of what he did are beginning to sink home.

Yes, has anyone of the sceptic persuasion who believes the McCanns are behind this latest news been able to explain how Amaral knew about this weeks before the papers reported it?

Why do I need to do what.? I only loose it if I've lose the bet remember. If you want to know who I am just ask and I'll tell you. Your ever in Glasgow just let me know and I'll show you the sights. That's if your not too old of course.

If you are of a certain age I'll make more appropriate arrangements.

"Up suckie doon - buckie and alang argyle.." Our neighbour used to say that and she was German. It was hilarious her learning English.

Could be it never was a secret in police circles, but the media hadn't got hold of it until this week.

Been there numerous times,  no burning desire to return but thanks for the offer.

So not made up by the McCanns in your view...?

Always difficult to tell. Official mouthpiece might had had some influence over release date.

In your rush to undermine my post you obviously didn’t notice that I didn’t say that you’d said Ney had been in the frame since 2012, the press articles already posted does.

You claimed that the release of Ney’s identity could have a detrimental effect on a live investigation....pre-warned....I think you said but with the interest in 2012 that detrimental effect would have already occurred.

Why would Amaral be spreading information from a McCann source, out of interest?

[Venturi Swirl]

You must have had a burning desire to return when you were younger if you came back numerous times.
That's nice and your most welcome.

No.  My sole reason for visiting was business related.  I used to go to Edinburgh for pleasure :-)

No no no.you misunderstand - probably deliberately 

Amaral was informed through his contacts. Nothing to do with McCann

I've always preferred Edinburgh .
A beautiful city.
Shopping is better in Glasgow!
