Supreme Court rules against the McCanns in damages case.

[Montclair]

every high profile case takes place in a media scrum....the pj just were not up to the job. No excuse for the poor collection of forensics and teh inability to understand the results of what forensic tests were undertaken.

as for frivolous....dont believe everything you read in teh papers

Isabel Duarte did use the word "leviano" which can be translated as frivolous, hasty, irresponsible, etc.

[Mr Gray]

so she may well have meant hasty....thanks very much
what it does show is what an inexact science translation is.....plenty of room for error in the twice translated non verbatim statements

Or irresponsible - don't forget that option 

[Mr Gray]

Just like the PJ and GNR should have been able to get on with their job in the June 2014 Luz dig without worrying about the media?

OK - no need to cordon the 3 dig areas off.  No need to issue warnings about media interference.  No need to man umpty positions in Luz 24x10 for that farrago.  They should have stepped back and let the media get on with it.  Are you of the opinion that was appropriate for 4 May 2007?

I must look up the Portuguese word for tripe.  I wonder if the alleged butcher in Portelas sells tripe.  I say alleged because we have been told it is the best butcher in the region and I can lay my hands on all sorts of rare meat.  Whilst A N Other reckons there is no butcher in Portelas and I am going to have to visit Odiáxere for my delicacies.

You seem to have a problem with the media....its absolutely natural for the media to want to report on something so newsworthy as maddies disappearance

[Mr Gray]

Or irresponsible - don't forget that option 

thtas the whole point...we dont know what she meant and its guaranteed theres just such misundersatndings in the translated statements

[jassi]

No sure hasty is appropriate. From what I've read, they only had 10 days  in which to make the application.
