Amaral based his theory upon the evidence in the PJ Files. We don't know what Wolters has based his theory on but he has made it plain what he thinks. Some may think a prosecutor sharing his beliefs with the world's media is competent. I don't agree with that.
Amaral was the co-ordinator of the case between May until he was sacked from it in September of the same year. Unfortunately not before he had caused irreparable damage while on the ground.
His book was based on
his files and the interim report filed by Tavares who was later found guilty of torture.
His theory and the interim report were a work in progress. I think where the duplicity arises right from the start is in confusing unfinished business with where the files ended, the Portuguese having taken Madeleine's case as far as they were prepared to go.
He certainly did not base anything but error on the FSS reports as recorded in the files or on the PJ assessment of the value of the dogs' intervention.
