Portuguese cop says the McCanns 'are still suspects'!

[kizzy]

His thesis was all over the papers yesterday. More publicity for his book, he has the McCanns to thank for that.

Yes.......they gave him publicity money couldn't buy...without them he would have disappeared into obscurity

Still keeping his theory in the news today....I think it might have backfired a bit though for the mcs intention.

He's as busy as ever. Although he should be mid-way through his daily, 3 hour boozy lunch by now I expect.
What a lad.

I was sat in a cafe about 10 years ago & read the paper that was to hand. It detailed the libel trial.
If they'd never brought the civil action I might never have even heard of him. But I already suspected them anyway because they were shifty as.

It sure does, so far neither the McCanns nor Madeleine have received it.  The only person laughing all the way to the bank is the incompetent ex-cop who mishandled the case from the start and who has a conviction for lying.  It’s a cruel world sometimes.  How the McCanns haven’t thrown themselves under a speeding Intercity by now I have no idea.  They must possess great inner strength.

No, I have offered no opinion on what is or isn't constitutional. I must admit that the twists and turns your mind follows are not always clear to me.

Hmmm, that's an interesting assessment. Conversely, I must admit to knowing exactly what you are all about.

It is a cruel world ...very cruel.

The inner strength imo is survival... they are fighting for there right to reputation ect etc. not maddie

GA believes that maddie died in an accident...I'm sure you can imagine the outcome of their career reputation lives ...if that had been proved.

They brought all this on themselves

What a tragedy that children don't have rights to be protected ...like the mccs have been

Amaral needs to realise he is a has- been.


But he is not is he....seems people have more interest in what he has to say.... than the mccs,

Has-been as in 'not a Police Officer anymore'.   What he has to say must give the Portuguese, German and British Police a good laugh.

But not the McCanns, which is the mportant thing.
On the upside they could stick all of those unopened presents for Maddie on Vinted to raise a few bob. Every cloud.

[Lace]

Strange isn't it.   The family of JonBenet Ramsey have sued anyone who accused them of her death.  Maybe Amaral should not be so quick as to mouth off,  as if it is proven the McCann's had nothing to do with Madeleine's disappearance they could sue him for slander.

If you think that's a silver lining then I think you need to take yourself aside and wonder what sort of person you are.

Pragmatist. That's what I landed on. Practical, applicable and results oriented. S.M.A.R.T. yeh....
Useful exercise that, cheers.

Gonçalo Amaral highlights "victory" of justice and again accuses couple McCann
Roberto Bessa Moreira

Former Judicial Police inspector Gonçalo Amaral praises the decision of the European Court of Human Rights and maintains an opinion that Maddie's parents are the main suspects in her disappearance.

Gonçalo Amaral stresses that the decision of the European Court of Human Rights (ECtHR) means "the victory of the justice system Portuguese and of all those who defend freedom of expression and opinion".
"The strategy of the complainants failed 15 years ago and failed again. Nor with the creation of a false suspect, Maddie's parents were able to influence the ECtHR's decision and clean up its image. It was a resounding defeat," says the former inspector of the Judicial Police.

To JN, Gonçalo Amaral argues that Kate and Jerry McCann "remain the main suspects" of the disappearance of the child. "Nothing that has been done so far bess much the report made by Chief Inspector Tavares de Almeida in 2007, which points to an accidental death, simulation of abduction and concealment of corpse", justifies.

The man who started the investigation into Maddie McCann's disappearance insists on criticism of the English couple, accusing him of being "more concerned with cleaning up his image than finding his daughter."

Is this interpretation of events really what the ECHR judges' ruling actually intended to convey?

I rather doubt it was intended to signify the retrograde step to what should have been a bygone era where we see the likes of convicted torturer Tavares being eulogised yet again.

The victim's lawyer is relieved by the end of a process that has been going on for 13 years. "From what I understand, this is the first time that such a process has led to the conviction of specific people," he tells the Express.

In America they sue the milkman for being too loud. So not the best example.

We've been down this road; a few slaps is not torture.

Ha. I don't think McCann will want to go anywhere near a Portuguese Court ever again.
