Gerry McCann: 'Damage caused to search for Madeleine'
Gerry McCann said that he was was not expecting the hearing to be delayed at a Lisbon court. He was in hoping to give evidence in the family's libel case against a former detective. The hearing was postponed because the defence lawyer had to care for his ill son.

Mr McCann said: "The law has changed, and I think that Kate and I know better than anyone else what we have experienced, and what we have gone through, the facts of the file and the damage that has been caused to the search for Madeleine."

A certain pattern does seem to be emerging -- of constant delays and interruptions stemming from mishaps to befall team Amaral.

Is there any news on the health of Amaral's first lawyer?

Your brain can imagine all sorts, but until there is evidence thats all it is your own brains imaginings

And, ask someone who knows about his first lawyer

Are you joking?

Gerry Mccann, a heart consultant, who has no doubt had to move his schedule around to accomodate this Court hearing.  Also put to considerable expence by the whole thing; hotel bills, flights, interpreters etc. and Lawyers who might not be able to schedule the new dates.


If Santos' child is ill then i am very sorry, but so many illnesses in this case are VERY FISHY.

Time wasting, money wasting and possibly causing Gerry to be unable to take part ... nor his lawyer and interpreters.



VERY FISHY indeed.   Sounds like a ploy, but we dont know for sure.  Hope the Judge is aware of all the "illnesses" etc surrounding the case

Blacksmith certainly seemed to (know about Amaral's first lawyer).

He even knew about the ailment ...

Well, I see old Brunty was at the court!
