I posted a couple of days ago, mostly in jest, that I would be devastated if nothing earth-shattering happened by Saturday. TBH I don't think we'll hear anything for months yet. I am sure we will eventually, but it won't be for ages, as that's the pace that everything else seems to crawl along at. I'm not bothered. I'm not going anywhere and I can wait.

Yesterday Joana contacted Guerra and Paz (sp?) to find out info and they wouldn`t give her any because she was a blogger.

I just got a touch of 'the glooms', I think.

i hung onto cold waters ever word on 3as loged in every morning for a update

In all fairness, I don't blame them. Rosiepops is a "blogger", so are Pedro Fluffy Towel, Bonnybraes, Bren, the bampot that does Writing the Wrongs, Nigel "Second Coming" Nessling and Murat Fan. I wouldn't trust any of them with a shopping list, never mind important information.

"[...] This book has a greater purpose. The contribute to the discovery of material truth and the realization of justice in the investigation known as "Maddie case". These are fundamental values ​​to which I am forced by the imperative of conscience, conviction and discipline to the institution to which I was proud to belong. These same values ​​are not extinguished with my retirement and will continue to be present in my life. Under no circumstances should the book calls into question the work of my colleagues in the Judicial Police, or compromise the ongoing investigation. It is my deep understanding that the disclosure in a work of this kind, of all the facts, could compromise future efforts to determine the discovery of truth. However, the reader will find data that unknown, interpretations of the facts - always under the law - and, of course, relevant questions. A criminal investigation only committed to the pursuit of material fact. You should not worry about political correctness. "

Update on March 23, 2012
The mandatary and lawyer of the McCann couple, Isabel Duarte, has until the 29th of this month to return the books; the 10 days deadline are not consecutive and are measured as working days. Meanwhile, the lawyer to whom the books were entrusted by the First Instance Civil Court of Lisbon, has been trying to delay the restitution of the books to its rightful owners as ordered by the Supreme Court of Justice alleging that the Court of Appeals judgement did not transit in rem judicatam [unappealable decision/final ruling].

Thank you for that Oldartform We can now count down the days.

Any more updates on the book situation.

Morning Krisy22.........strange that there is nothing in the Portugese press, we'll have to wait until our Portugese Resident Members find out something.

I'm waiting to hear from someone who may know, or be able to find out...I feel another McMinute coming on...
