The rulings left Mr Amaral confident of court victory next month when as expected the judge announces her final verdict in open court before releasing her sentence in writing.

He accused the McCanns of taking him to court so they could exonerate themselves of blame for the disappearance of their daughter, who vanished aged three from their Praia da Luz holiday flat in May 2007 while they were eating tapas nearby with friends.
Portuguese papers signalled the outcome of last Wednesday’s hearing as a positive one for heart specialist Gerry and Kate moments after it finished.
But as the full findings became apparent they changed their tune to portray the judge’s rulings as a slap in the face for the couple.

At least it's a start and here's hoping that many more people have their eyes opened following GA's interview and the mention of his book.

January began directionless and weary limping into the new year, McCann files frozen in time,rumours of double agents (yet to be revealed?) even Andrew here seemed to be on the verge of throwing in the towel and to cap it all Joana Morais fed up with arguing the toss called time.........you only need a whiff of spring to look to the end of winter.
