Is there more circumstantial evidence against the mccanns than there is CB

[Mr Gray]

Can you prove that I'm wrong?  Can you give me an example of a libel case of that sort?

It's not important to prove you wrong... I know you are wrong

I was asking Eleanor to show her understanding of libel.

A lot of what Tony Bennett had to say was innuendo and insinuation.  He lost at some great cost to himself.

Ist it a bit late for that. All those supposedly libellous posts removed by mods who don't understand libel

That could be true but it didn't really answer my question.

What is libel to me is not the same libel to you.

[Mr Gray]

That could be true but it didn't really answer my question.

Libel is libel... It isn't what you or anyone else believes. It's established in law and it's clear you don't understand what it means.. I do

[Eleanor]

It wasn't "Could be True."  It happened.  But each case has to be looked at individually.  Judge Tugendhat did just that.
Perhaps you should look at The Trial Transcript.

I'm not a lawyer or a judge trained in the finer details of libel law.

Bennet's trial transcript?

Bennet's trial transcript?

Yes.  When he was sued for Libelling The McCanns.

If you don't understand the basics you  shouldn't be moderating it

What is there to not understand about this.


Portugal’s highest court has said that Madeleine McCann’s parents have still not been proved innocent over their daughter’s disappearance. Kate and Gerry McCann have strenuously denied any wrongdoing despite extraordinary and unverified claims from former police chief that Maddie died in their flat and that they faked her abduction to cover it up. Hospital worker dead after stabbing at hospital moments before daughter killed But Portuguese Supreme Court judges who ruled last week against their last-ditch appeal over Amaral’s 2008 book ‘The Truth of the Lie’ said the lifting of their status as ‘arguidos’ or formal suspects and the archiving of the criminal case into Maddie’s disappearance did not mean they were innocent.

Whats to understand is that is a newspaper report and its wrong.. If you read the court judgement available on this forum it certainly doesn't say that. That's the problem with people who don't understand the true facts

Which trial transcript? As I understand it Bennett agreed to some restrictions on his behaviour in 2009 after being accused using the Protection from Harassment Act 1997. He was later convicted of Contempt of Court for breaching those undertakings. Was he ever sued for or convicted of libel?

Bennett breached those undertakings by continuing with innuendo and insinuation, as Judge Tugendhat Ruled.
