Thank you friends!

How come this man is saying the opposite? He continues to defame and seems to get away with it.

Because he's a nutter!

I give up. I really don`t know how Goncalo continues to stay strong when he`s having to fight such corruption.

I agree and its a sad state that its coming from within Portugual, Amaral has enough on his hands dealing with Team McCann.

Kathybelle, I pray that the McCanns DONT drop their case against Amaral they need tobe taken down and if the case goes against the McCanns which Im positive it will, this could be when the media turns against the two neglecting Doctors and their friends....thats if SY/PJ haven't turned against them by then!!!!!

I don't think it's corruption. I don't even think the lawyer was lying. I think he possibly believes what comes out of his mouth, which is much harder to deal with than lying. Even when the judge said it hadn't been established that Amaral witnessed the torture or coordinated the team that carried it out, that nutter is still saying that Amaral is guilty of torture. He's got serious mental health problems I reckon.

According to JH forum it's likely to be October.

Because he is made of stronger stuff then Team McCann realise, thankfully.

Absolutely!

And thankfully so. Some people may find it unfair but I prefer to live in a country where people are allowed to express their opinions without fear of being sued right, left and centre. The judge basically stated that what the nutcase stated was a lie but that because he trusted what Leonor had told him there is no reason for him to be convicted. They considered that having trusted Leonor he had the right to put what she told him in writing even if it isn't the truth because he believed it was (Kate and Gerry, a tip for you here!). As much as I would like the nutcase to be convicted for a personal pleasure, I can't be a hypocrite and say this is the wrong decision. As far as I'm concerned, it wasn't. I hope, though, that this standard is applied to other cases and I hope my country will never become a happy sue country. We've had almost 50 years of censorship and we don't want those memories to come back ever.

I bet this verdic has already been photocopied to use at a later date!

ETA: Completely off topic, I know, but today we had 38.2Cº here!!!

Hope you enjoyed it!

Rub it in Claudia, what with us in the UK having constant rain. It has started to feel like normal life to go out and get soaked everyday. When the sun puts in a brief appearance we get afraid. A reporting of it warrants a news item as if it's a UFO

Me neither. Which reminds me that I actually hate it.

Amazingly, I think there may have been a few places in the UK where it didn't rain today!

Now you come to mention it, it has not in ours either. Although thick grey cloud, no UFO . Made up for it through last night though. So actually we still have not had a full day without it.

Thanks Claudia - yes, I see where you`re coming from. And yes, it does seem so unfair when everyone must see that the nutter has always had a grudge against GA. What`s worse is that some other nutters who have certain powers have been taking the nutter`s side. Just makes me wonder what the hell is behind it all.

He has to take it easy, though. If he repeats his claims, with the content of this verdict, he can be sued again and this time there's a lot more chance of him losing because now he can't use the 'I trusted my client' excuse.

From what JFAK said, he already has repeated his claims :

From Marcos
" we were declared NON-GUILTY of all charges;
the torture of Leonor Cipriano perpetrated by the portuguese police is once again confirmed;
the serious and active involvement of Goncalo de Sousa Amaral in that torture is once again confirmed;Goncalo de Sousa Amaral was condemn to pay all the court expenses;
since the Public Prosecutor also asked for the non-guilty verdict, no more appeals are possible.

Please divulge!

Thank you friends! "
