The lady seems to be completely unaware of the circumstances why KM did not answer the questions.

She also seems to be unaware that Kate had already told the PJ what she saw when she went into Madeleine's bedroom - and that she had been interrogated for 11 hours the previous day - so why didn't they ask her that question again - at that time -  if it was so important?

IMO Its plain to me when reading those questions that looking for Madeleine' abductor had long gone from their minds, and their sole aim was to incriminate KM - to get a result.   Her Lawer apparently had the same opinion - hence his wise advice. 

 







The notion that innocence prevails over guilt – when there is no evidence to the contrary – is what separates civilization from barbarism.    Unfortunately, there are remains of barbarism among us.    Until very recently, it headed the PJ in Portimão. I hope he was the last one.

Can I ask - because I genuinely don't know - is it usual for cases in Portugal to get spread out in the way this libel trial has been spread out - going on on the odd day here and there for weeks?

Me too CPN - I would like to know the thinking behind such arrangements.

I think the essential point that Wendy was trying to make was: what desperate mother of a missing child wouldn't want to answer every police question, in order to try to establish the truth.

To quote Wendy from last night's broadcast:

"Ah, but this is important, she refused to answer – she hired lawyers straightaway. She refuses to answer 48 questions, things like: ‘What did you see when you walked into the room where your child was supposed to be sleeping?’...I think this is all related to [the civil case in Portugal] - and this whole ‘new suspect thing’ is again part of them trying to distract attention from the fact that, as parents of a missing, probably dead child, what are you doing?!

Not answering questions?!

Please!"


Looks like she's another know it all, and knows bu**ar all about the case.

Hired lawyers straight away?. Isn't that what accused people usually d?.

No lawyer was hired,  till September 2007.

One of Portugal’s best-known lawyers with reputation for taking on controversial cases. Pinto de Abreu has been in place since the start of September. He lodged McCanns’ libel action against Portuguese newspaper which said they were police suspects. De Abreu, a Lisbon lawyer, has offered his services to the McCanns for free.

10 September 2007

Nina Goswami
Kingsley Napley has been hired by the parents of Madeleine McCann to advise them on their legal rights.

7th SEPTEMBER QUESTIONS TO KATE McCANN

As has been said a million time, she had already answered these questions.

Another one after her 15 minutes, IMO.

It just puzzles me, Benice, why it is taking 2 months at a couple of days a week (if you are lucky)  It seems so wasteful of time and expense.  And for Kate and Gerry, much as it is them who have started this libel case, it must be infuriating to be going back time and again, arranging for the care of the twins, the expense etc. when a week's hearing and be done with it would be much more economical in every way

Perhaps it allows more time for the evidence to be evaluated in a calm and dispassionate manner.
I believe everything. And l believe nothing.
I suspect everyone. And l suspect no one.
I gather the facts, examine the clues... and before   you know it, the case is solved!"

Or maybe not -

I agree CPN - there seems to be no rhyme or reason to it.

But that argument would apply to any case - and they have had months and months to organise this (and I think they knew much of what would be said anyway!)

Why not write to the Portuguese embassy in London ?  If you ask them nicely, they may explain the niceties of their legal system.

No, it is not unusual.

I just thought, as there seem to be Portuguese nationals and / or residents on here, that they might know if this is usual.

Ah, OK, thanks, Montclair.  So most court cases are split up in this way?  Do you know the rationale for that?

What a shrieky woman ... and did it say she was an attorney?

God help America

So, so predictable.

The mere suggestion that  people don't believe the mccanns and that the Crimewatch program is a diversion from the failing trial......

HOLD IT, that's true. 8((()*/

A lot of pre-show hype, but don't be disappointed if it turns out to be a bit of an anticlimax.
  It simply cannot be an 'anticlimax'.

The hype on the BBC and our media about our crack police team having made a 'breakthrough' has been
