Hi pennylane....long time since you have been posting , glad to see you are O.K.

It's like being on a rollercoaster this case. Here we are , all geared up to see the McCanns get their comeuppance and I think there is a definite spanner in the works and I think it was kitti who drew attention to it.

Why did Redwood say he thought there was a good chance Madeleine was alive? ?  There was no new evidence to support that because he is dredging up from the Files which gave little indication that Madeleine was alive. To extend the search and spend more money he surely had to satisfy Theresa May and Cameron that it was necessary, ergo, either he does have such evidence or there has been the most almighty protection by Government in history.

If the Trial is postponed the Portugese Judge will be seen as colluding .

Could you please substantiate what your evidence is for stating that?

Not 'hearsay' but your irrefutable proof, beyond contestation, that Mr Amaral claimed that the McCanns CAUSED their daughters death?

Thankyou.

BTW Palmeras, please bear in mind that GA COULD sue YOU for stating that.(unless you have absolute PROOF that he did say that)
Just a thought.

In the final chapter of the book, Mr Amaral highlights the conclusions of the investigation:

1. The minor, Madeleine McCann died inside apartment 5A of the Ocean Club in Vila da Luz, on the night of May 3rd 2007;

2. There was simulation of abduction.

3. Kate Healy and Gerald McCann were probably involved in the concealment of their daughter's body.

4. The death may have occurred as a result of a tragic accident;

5. The evidence proves the parents' negligence concerning the care and safety of the children.

In summary: possible accidental death with contributory negligence by the parents, plus concealment of a cadaver and the simulation of an abduction.

Sorry, Panda, but there are trial postponements everyday. Some cases are postponed 4, 5, 6 times for several reasons. One of my neighbours had a court case which was postponed 5 times that I remember (I was a witness). And it wasn't even a big case with many witnesses. It was a ridiculous thing between neighbours (there was a mini flood in the upstairs neighbour apartment. The water went downstairs and ruined a painting and two expensive rugs). Finally, when the case was finally heard, the insurance company agreed to pay what my neighbour had asked and the judge told us yo go home. I didn't even get to testify.

That happened to me once, annoying isn't it. Claudia, I do think this is a special case though and every effort will be made to ensure everything runs smoothly because the eyes of the World will be focussed on Portugal and the Court knows this. The McCanns and Amaral have had their 3 months , whether a Portugese Court allows the McCanns to give evidence by video link remains to be seen.

If, IF, only 'relatives' turn up in Lisbon will they be staying at the same 5 STAR hotel that the McCanns used, only because it was convienient you understand, and if so who will be paying for that?
Surely not the 'fund'?
I can't imagine handicapped childrens 'donations' to the Madeleine 'fund' being spent on lavish accomodation for McCann relatives would go down to well.
Relatives, i might add, that have no direct bearing relating to the libel trial.

But hey, when have the WIDER family ever worried about using the 'fund' money 'donations' for their support?

ETA: How many of Philomenas, past and present, students believe a word she says, or has said, having had the opportunity to read the 'files' without her standing over them?
Is Philomena still asking for 'donations' from students for her brother's private ltd company?

I have to go to the hospital to have my sides sewn up.
They split when you said "however, any old crook will do when it comes to 'the search."

      

I shouldn't laugh, it hurts so much!

Ooopps, i've just cracked a rib!
