Wandering Off Topic

And are you really so credulous as to believe that Busching would be able tomake up such an apparently far fetched  tale on the spot simply to get on the good side of the Greek police or that they would in turn be so credulous as to just fall for it hook line and sinker without any further investigation or corroboation?  What was in it for the Greeks again, remind me?

Being a part of the investigation that solved the biggest missing child case in history? I’m sure that’d be a feather in any police force’s cap.

Not if it turned out they’d lied and done a deal with a mad fantasist, that’s not much of a feather to boast about  is it?

But then they wouldn’t have boasted, would they? We’d never have heard about it.

We have heard about it, were they boasting about it?  I thought you said that that was their motive for doing a deal with Busching?

PS: why am I not on ignore?  Please put me back where I belong, it’s disorientating.

Being fobbed off by the PJ is a definite recurring theme throughout the early investigation.

Only among those who spoke to the press rather than the police imo.

Of course there’s plenty of evidence of police fobbing off in the Files, and from Amaral himself.

If the Brueckner lead hadn’t lead anywhere we’d have heard nothing about it. The Greek police took a chance that they might receive some of the reflected glory if the information lead anywhere

BTW have you read what MWT says about Busching?

As to the ignore thing…I’m afraid comment is thin on the ground at the moment and as you appear to be here 24/7 I’m afraid you’ll have to do.

My sentiments exactly.  I'll read any old rubbish when I haven't got anything better to do.  Although others talk more rubbish than SW and a jolly sight more often.

Amaral has constantly condemned himself in his own words.  I think there is a fair chance many of them will come back to haunt him in the not too distant future.

I’m sure Amaral isn’t the slightest bit bothered. In fact the latest developments could be very lucrative for him.

Only if he rents himself out at a "Throw Rotten Tomatoes At The Rotten Ex Cop" stall at the PdL Summer Fair.

Refusing to speak to people? Who?

You only have to look at the latest mouth on a stick offering from Harry Grout from CEOP, or whatever he's called. The Mail have got that lad's number of speed dial and I doubt his soundbites are free.
It's the money fountain and it's unlikely to end.
No wonder so many wannabee's and cling ons are trying to inject themselves in to it - there's easy money to be made. Even CB himself is in on it.

What evidence in the files shows people being 'fobbed off'?
