The Portuguese Police apologise to the McCanns.

It seems the majority of people now are a bit miffed that the Germans know who killed maddie.

Yet not producing a thing to prove it.

I think the majority of people now accept that Madeleine was abducted and that in all likelihood she was taken by a predatory paedophile, if not CB then someone very similar who lived locally, was a child abuser who had experience of entering properties illegally and knew his way around the area.  I wonder how many other local(ish) residents fit that profile back in 2007?

If you want to believe every thing they say and hang on every word......that's up to you.

I don't....I like to think for myself.

I prefer to believe the Police who are actually investigating the case.

The man who was watching 5a before Madeleine disappeared was wearing a black leather jacket,  CB was known to where a black leather jacket coincidence?

I think he was as brazen as they come.   He had got away with so many burglaries he was laughing at the Police.

I really can't help but wonder why Amaral didn't look into the burglaries and the sexual assaults in the apartments.  Why didn't he link the two.

Because there's no connection?

I think there are similarities with the Cipriano case, but not for the same reason as supporters.

Because he was convinced even before doing any investigations whatsoever that the McCanns were responsible, so other leads were pursued half-heartedly if at all.

It's OK. The MET have spent a decade investigating all the leads that Amaral didn't & it hasn't got them anywhere. Which kind of proves Amaral was right not to bother in the first instance really.

Amaral needed the McCanns to be guilty to validate his stance on The Cipriano Case.  And the pending Perjury Charge.  Which he lost.

OH ........I know that.

He did alright in the libel trial though.

Anyway. Let's get back to the thread topic. The Portuguese Police apologise to the McCanns.
They didn't.

[kizzy]

Seems though one lot looking for a live Maddie ...the otheres say she is dead.

Which of the police do you believe who are actually investigating the case.


quote
The journalist asked Wolters whether the German authorities are aware of the location of the crime, to which he simply replied "maybe".

Reacting to the claims, Harding said: "I've led a number of homicide investigations in London and until you get actual proof that somebody is dead, of course you you shouldn't be thinking that way.

"You know, that's why they are still active on the case, because there doesn't seem to be anything concrete to suggest that she is dead.

"I know the the German police I think in 2020 suggested that their belief was that she was dead and this is the time that Bruckner became their key suspect.

Harding continued: "So I think in my opinion and I think the opinion of the Met Police, certainly the people that I know that work on that case before I retired would suggest that until there is something that tells them otherwise, then of course this is an active inquiry for somebody that's still missing."

I just checked & the Find Madeleine website still states 'There is absolutely nothing to suggest that Madeleine has been harmed".

Doubts remain for the McCanns re the child abducting predatory paedophile.
