The Interupted Investigation.

To paraphrase Mark Twain, it seems the reports of John Blacksmith's demise have been greatly exaggerated.

For what ?

The only people who should be apologizing is the Mccanns for disrupting so many peoples lives.

The McCanns haven't disrupted my life.  But they certainly appear to have disrupted the lives of some.  I find defending them just a matter of decency.  But then I don't spend my life imagining all sorts of horror stories that don't even occur to most of us.

Blacksmith is wrong when he claims that the Portuguese investigation faltered as the tapas 9 were effectively beyond reach.  There was and is no such thing as 'beyond reach' in criminal cases within the European Community.  If the Portuguese had evidence against any one of the nine they could have forced their return using the European Arrest Warrant.

The fact that they chose not to do so only reinforces the belief that they had no such evidence against any member of the group.

A malicious prosecution for a crime which never existed. An exposé of egregious malfeasance by public officials.
Indeed, the truth never changes with the passage of time.

The Mccanns also employed the 'anti' extradition lawyer who managed to ensure the mass murderer Pinochet escaped extradition tp prevent him standing trial for his crimes. Let's not forget political  interference in the case as well. Which would never occurred if the mccanns had been from the proverbial council estate.

I believe Blacksmith was saying they were beyond the reach of the EAW system.

At that time they had insufficient clear evidence against the Tapasa 7 to bring them back under the EAW.

They may have had more of a chance with the McCann's but still it was weak and of course the McCann's had hired Michael Caplan QC, one can only presume, to prevent themselves from being extradited to Portugal.

Thewhole group said they would do anything to help. The  Mccanns said they would leave no stone unturned. What did they have to lose by cooperating in a reconstruction? Their looking at it as anathema rather speaks for itself. Just ONE day out of their busy schedules! May have turned something up, a new lead, a fresh perspective, and so on. But no, they knew better than the police. Well, it seems they always did.

They were keen to do one in the early days, but not after september when it became obvious that Amaral was looking for any excuse to fix them up, rather than look for Madeleine.

IIRC Mr Rebelo was running the reconstruction, in May 2008, six months after GA left the case, so had nothing to do with him, and along with a humungous amount of legal and other assurances given, bending over backwards to accommodate them! yes, indeed the investigation was hindered/halted, leaving no stone unturned, my ar se
