The Portuguese Archiving Report - What if anything does it mean?

[Albertini]

Clear:


to free from suspicion, accusation, or imputation of guilt:

The McCanns have been freed (cleared) from suspicion.  Judges and juries clear (free) from accusation or imputation of guilt.

No they havent in Portugal.

[Mr Gray]

So using your logic why didn't Amaral send them to prison?

what a stupid post...see if you can work out the answer for yourself

[Albertini]

who gives a toss about portugal

Given that is where the child disappeared from and they are the only ones who can investigate in Portugal, anyone whio cares to find out what happened to the poor child should "give a toss".

[Alfred R Jones]

No they havent in Portugal.

Officially they have.  Just because most Portuguese still suspect them is down in large part to Amaral's propaganda campaign.

So why does it matter if Amaral thought they were guilty then?
