Who was responsible for the request to make the McCanns arguidos on 7/9/2007, given that Tavares de Almeida's interim report containing the "theseis" and addressed to the co-ordinator of the investigation was dated 10/9/07 and signed by the MP 11/9/07?

All formal steps in an investigation are referred up for authorisation.  I accept that I don't know the exact protocols in Portugal but Amaral would not have had the authority to designate anyone as arguido, he would have had to have sought permission from the upper echelons of the Faro police service.

Is this really what you believe the OG are doing.

Such a cheap shot at an investigating police force.
This post is more reminiscent of posts that would be shown on forums of much less calibre than this one.

Do you think Joao Carlos was higher in the chain of command than Amaral, as pages 2565 - 6 have Carlos's name on them?

Everyone is entitled to a view so I'm not sure if Pathfinder really believes that or just wants to add some black humour to a dull subject.

Joćo Carlos was the inspector who completed the arquido forms but Amaral was Coordinator so more senior imo.

Operation Grange had the chance to show how to rescue an investigation which was abandoned. Instead they chased after charity collectors, burglars, and sex offenders in a seemingly vain effort to find an abductor. If they are mocked for their biased investigation they have only themselves to blame imo.

Trace, Investigate, Evaluate - that's how UK police work. There's absolutely no point in placing all the eggs in one basket in case the basket has a hole in it.

I assume that Pathfinder found it worthy of posting here.
Black humour to which dull subject?

I like a little humour now and then even if I don't agree with the picture it paints.

Visiting Transylvania seems to be more in keeping with the coffin theory.....

Surely Count Dracula had nothing to do with it!

Just not in tune with my sense of humour.

Nothing funny in the investigation of a missing child..
Perhaps makes me a party pooper.
