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?.
