Sylvia Dobson So why are a large number of relatives expected to give evidence, and yet not she herself. Forgive me, but if she and Gerry feel so agrieved that they feel they have to sue Amaral for what they perceive as libel, surely she / they could have the decency to at least give evidence as to why she feels Amaral has libeled her. Are the McCann's scared of taking the stand?

Kathy Belle Martin Brunt from Sky News, spoke on Twitter and said Goncalo Amaral is expected to ask if the hearing can be heard behind closed door. I read this on the Missing Madeleine forum. If anyone is a member Martin Brunt's Twitter account is martinbrunt@skymartinbrunt19m.

Roger Kelly my understanding is they've gone further than libel with this case, Sylvia, they'r claiming their human rights have been violated & they & their family suffered hurt as a result. Strange then that K & G wont be giving evidence. Anyone would think they'r afraid to be cross examined. LOL

Alison Scanlon if she had looked like that at the beginning i may have believed her lol

Claire Mitchell I hope it's not behind closed doors as we the public will never hear the truth. Kate is there to keep an eye on thing whilst Gerry reports back what UK are reporting. Mr Amaral needs this to be open court otherwise everything he has done will be for nothing. Well that's my opinion anyway

Claire Mitchell I got so mad reading the above by express and star. Family members taking the stand! Madeleines mother and father should be the ones telling everyone how much he has 'damaged the hunt' but no once again they sit back and let everyone else lie for them. Good god if this was my daughter missing and I honestly believed it damaged the hunt. I would be there making sure the world knew just how bad it had effected the search. my family would be watching my other children so I could get this cleared up. Arrrgggg!!!

Kathy Belle Hi Claire, I must admit I was surprised when I read that Goncalo Amaral wanted the hearing behind closed doors. I was always under the impression that he wanted the hearing out in the open. Although I can't find a link to prove this, I did read that he wanted to put the McCanns in the witness box. It wasn't too long after I read that information, that I read the McCanns wanted to appear by video link. Along with others I presumed that they didn't want to be questioned by Goncalo Amaral. I think the McCanns should be subpoenaed as witnesses. I just hope everything goes well for Goncalo Amaral.

Kathy Belle Hi Patricia, I looked at the front page of tomorrow's Daily Express and I swear I would have thrown up, if I had just had my tea. The article is headed Madeleine and underneath it says, Brave mum Kate, faces new ordeal in Portuguese Court room.
9 minutes ago · 2
Kathy Belle Why are lies still being printed about this case it is insulting to Madeleine's memory. Kate McCann along with her husband, has instigated this court case and if they win, they will empty Goncalo Amaral's bank account and make his children homeless, because they want Goncalo's half share of the house his ex wife and children live in.

Claire Mitchell I did get the same impression. I do believe I have read it somewhere but I've read that much I can't remember where either. I totally agree they should be subpoenaed but I don't know what Portuguese laws are like. Fingers crossed everything goes well and we'll see his book hitting our shops soon and reading more truths about the case. SY need to sort themselves out too they are making fools of themselves and I'm Sure they know it.

Patricia Doogue Typical rag paper if l remember rightly!! What l don't understand is why and by what right have these relations to give evidence. On what grounds. They weren't there at the time, or are they going to speak on her behalf telling more lies about the state she's been in since Maddie went missing?? Load of c**p!!!! Would like to be a fly on the wall in that courtroom. Hope to God, that Goncalo has got all the right answers, and she is blown across the Atlantic to a desert island where she'll never be found!!! Sorry for being a bitch, but, as l said the other day, she needs a good slap!!

Kathy Belle The McCanns relatives are no better than the McCanns. What have they ever done to find Madeleine? Nothing. I didn't know until today that Mark Warner, flew the McCanns relatives out to Portugal, so the could support the McCanns. Why should that company have paid for flights for the McCanns relatives. I hope that if they appear in the witness box, Goncalo Amaral's lawyer wipes the floor with them.

Patricia Doogue That pair seem to be able to do what they like, as though they have the God given right to trample people into the ground with their lies. Told you, they want locking up the pair of them, best place on Devil's Island!! Though Steve McQueen escaped, Dustin Hoffman prepared to live his life out eating bloody coconuts!! good enough for them two as well. RIP Steve McQueen, but be a good place to leave them, first place that came into my head, suppose there are worse places, the worst for the worst!!

Patricia Doogue @ Gail, if she has the affrontery to walk into God's house, she should be struck by lightening!! I heard she did confess to a priest, but there's the rub, priest can't divulge anything, but think that they should be forced to in this sort of a situation, but, can't actually see her confessing to anything as remote as murder or abduction or f all else, she's a bitch, and may God forgive me.!!

Helma Hagenaars I am looking forward to see that, let him wipe the floor with Kate too, when he has the chance. Without her husband it wil be harder for her to stand behind their answers/ lies. I think Kate is the weakest one from the pair. Easy to catch for Amaral, when on her own

Patricia Doogue Agree with Helma, Kate lot less likely to be too positive without that creep beside her. Would say he's her leading man, and without him, there will be a lot of errrrming and oh ing, etc, she's not all that articulate for a doctor, whod' want her for a GP, she could be another Harold Shipman lol!!!

Claire Mitchell I think the family know the truth because I know my family n they would want all the answers to all the questions that no one else has heard. I might be able to lie to strangers (not the world) but I couldn't lie to my closet family members. They would be the ones who you turn to. The ones that would never forgive n the ones that would make it hard to carry on. They must know. I find it hard to believe they don't. I just don't understand why no one has said or done anything.

Helma Hagenaars The reason i joined you club: I was there 3 weeks after Madeleine disappeared. We were on holiday in Lagos, just 2 km away from PDL. I've seen the panik, and comotion there, at that time. Second reason: she is born on 12th of May, just like myself. It always kept me busy, what could have happened to this little girl.

Lelia Hall They backed out of lie detector because they knew the truth would be revealed. The dogs findings were kept very quiet. I cant understand how. They were not prosecuted for child neglect for leaving those babies alone. And they still have custody of the twins. How how how. I just cant understand how.

Patricia Doogue Nice to see a Christian message on here as quoted from scripture. I have words with the Lord most of the time about all sorts of things, time l think to ask him for his wrath and anger at McC's, and rain his vengeance down on their quest to cheat and steal 1.2 million pounds from an innocent man!!!
So once again we have a Christian Lay Reader using social media to post abusive messages. Patricia Doogue is a lay preacher of Carlow nothing very christian at all about Patricia Doogue
