Kate's refusal on legal advice to answer those 48 questions.

[carlymichelle]

I simply do not believe that The Leicester Constabulary were in any way involved in those spurious questions.  And I don't believe a word Amaral says.

funnily enough those  of us   who dont believe a  word  of the mcanns   get abused by the likes of you hypocrite  much

[Mr Gray]

Do you think LC were just there for the hell of it?

In respect of the arguido interviews, Amaral states in his book (page 84)



Bumped for Davel since he wrongly refers to it on another thread as not being answered. Context is Kate and Gerry McCann's arguido interviews.

my post was at 7.12.........johns was at 7.20 so when I made my post it had not been answered...so I rightly referred to it as not being answered...doesn't matter you can just delete threads where you are shown to be wrong.  Could you supply the context of this statement because I don't believe that the uk police would ask questions such as ...did you call sky news.......we know amaral is a proven liar in court...the book is the subject of  a libel case for being inaccurate...

several reasons not to believe the  book

Granted that some details in Gonçalo's book are open to question but anyone who believes for a second that he made it up about Leicestershire Constabulary cooperating in the arguido questions just don't understand how the law works.  If he had lied about it he effectively had put his head on the chopping block and even he isn't that stupid. 

So how many issues is that now that I have shown you to be wrong over the last few days Dave?  First it was the word 'appeared' which isn't used in the Archiving Report and now the word prove which does appear?  I find it so useful to have Spanish and Portuguese as second languages.

not sure what you are talking about with the appeared...could you tell me more...I think you get quite a few things wrong john...so how much input did the uk police have in the questions..truth is you don't know

As you say, only the cops will know how much input each of them had.  Do you think we would get an answer from LP if we submitted a freedom of information request?

could always try

No respectable Police Force is going to admit to contributing to those spurious questions.  All the real crooks in the area would fall about laughing.

How do you know that Kate refused to answer the 48 questions because her lawyer advised her not to? It is possible that Kate and Gerry decided that one of them would not answer any questions while the other one did in order to avoid any blatant discrepencies in their replies.

I shouldn't think so.  They could both have refused.  But no one is interested in what Gerry had to say.  People just want a stick with which to beat Kate.

I have never even seen the questions that Gerry was asked, let alone his answers.  While Kate's 48 are embedded in my brain.

Weren't they the same questions ?

I don't know.  You tell me.  It's his answers that I am most interested in.

It doesn't really matter because they didn't know before hand what they were going to be asked and to avoid any glaring differences it would be much easier to have one of them refuse to answer any questions.

Why would you expect their answers to be identical - they weren't joined at the hip all day long on May 3rd. 

It seems to me that Kate's questions were specifically designed for her to answer - and not Gerry.

[Miss Taken Identity]

So, were there any questions that would incriminate Kate? she could lie under oath,who would know?
There was No valid reason for her to not answer those questions.
especially as I have mentioned: By not answering Kate conceded (answered YES)  that it could harm the investigation/search as to what happened to her daughter.

Then she rants on at a police officer-accusing him for doing the exact same thing! EVEN taking him to court!
Completely disgraceful behavior by a mother.

Kate's questions would be slightly different as they had different answers regarding when they last saw  their daughter-at different times for eg. "allegedly"
