		The 
		“Maddie Case” provokes passionate discussions amongst experienced 
		
		
		
		PJ 
		investigators. 
		They have all spent their lives sniffing out death: they have worked for 
		30 years in the Homicide Section, dealing with hundreds of murders, they 
		have heard those who have repented and killers without a drop of 
		repentance, they have interrogated those who were thought to have 
		reasons to kill and those who killed for nothing at all. They even knew 
		those who robbed a life by ill fortune, due to lack of care. They know 
		much about homicide – but they are divided about what happened in
		
		
		
		
		apartment
		5 A of the 
		
		 
		
		Ocean 
		Club. 
		
		
		 
		
		Gonçalo Amaral
		was removed from the 
		investigation when he suspected that Maddie died in the apartment. The 
		process was shelved and the 
		
		 
		
		McCann couple fights for a truth: the 
		girl was abducted. 
		 
		
		The couple tries to find the trace of the girl with 
		
		
		
		private 
		detectives
		and millions of
		
		
		
		donated
		pounds. 
		They have now begun an on-line petition to oblige the Public Ministry to 
		re-open the case. Serious subjects should be treated with seriousness. 
		 
		This crusade of the McCanns to collect 100 thousand signatures is a 
		lamentable folklore. If they have new information about the crime, give 
		the information – now! – to the Public Ministry. To do the contrary, 
		they would be accomplices.  |
