Supreme Court rules against the McCanns in damages case.

[Mr Gray]

I wonder just how much these journalist actually know about the details of the case....I think it would be worth a letter to the sun with all the details of amarals transgressions with cites....would make an interesting article

That's cos he didn't cash in on Madeleine's disappearance and swap career for author, self-appointed Madeleine case expert and media personality.

Some must have  been really upset by that.

Well had it been my child the ex-cop had been tasked with finding and he not only failed, but also made me the chief suspect and then spent the rest of his life trying to persuade people he was on the right track all along(even though he patently wasn't) then yes, I'd have been a bit effin' miffed.  You of course wouldn't have been remotely bothered.

There appears to be a lot of sour grapes on here.

The legal proceedings are done and dusted, and nothing said on this forum will change that.

Why should anyone not personally involved be in the slightest bothered?

I was talking about putting yourself into another's position, something you are clearly not able to do.  Never mind.

[Alfie]

Why should ANYONE care about what they perceive to be a miscarriage of justice, if it doesn't affect you personally?  Jassi and others on here don't understand that concept at all.  It makes you wonder why we even have a Miscarriage of Justice Forum when surely other people's misfortunes and unjust treatment are nothing to do with us and therefore supposedly of no interest.

I can accept the parents and a few close relatives being a bit miffed, but other people - nah

I suppose it is the same as not being personally involved  in the terrorist attacks, the war in
Syria, starving children in other countries but having the empathy to feel bothered.

It does indeed, but as it exists, one might as well use it

How can you equate your addition to Jassi's post, compared to the mccann case.

The McCann's bear responsibility for how this case started.

Madeleine suffered the consequences.

However, comparing this case and empathy to those people killed or maimed in war , is beyond the pale.

For example, Trump is an act of stupidity gave the go-ahead for a raid, in which 30 civilians were killed, including women and children, together with a Navy Seal.

Is the SC judgement going to be released?  I'd like to see their logic.

[Mr Gray]
