MADELEINE McCann’s parents are facing further torment as the ex-cop behind shocking claims they covered up their daughter’s death prepares to publish a SECOND book days before the 10th anniversary of her disappearance.
But Kate and Gerry McCann said retired detective Goncalo Amaral’s “poisonous lies” will never be published in the UK because “no publisher will dare to touch it”.

The retired cop is penning the final pages of his second book on Maddie and wants it to be released by the end of April for “maximum impact” just days ahead of the painful 10th anniversary of her disappearance.
And the McCanns expect Amaral – who they say has hampered the global hunt for Maddie with false and malicious accusations while insisting she is dead – will continue being hurtful and controversial in book two.
A family source told The Sun Online: “Madeleine’s parents know that no publisher will dare to touch it in this country under our defamation laws or they would face legal action. Publishers have legal responsibilities.

“Let’s see what he says this time! He has written another book to coincide with the anniversary.
“If he repeats any allegations that he has made before Kate and Gerry’s lawyers will be looking at it.
“They have said before that their lawyers are watching.

“If Mr Amaral’s attempts to get his current book or his new one about Madeleine is published in the UK lawyers will take immediate action.”
Amaral, who claims to have developed a passion for “writing books and relaxing”, said previously: “I have written another book, examining the timeline and what people have said.”
The book, based on public extracts from Portuguese police files, is [You must be registered and logged in to see this link.]

His first offering The Truth of the Lie – written a year [You must be registered and logged in to see this link.] and a best-seller in Portugal – became the subject of a bitter libel feud.
The book, which netted Amaral a reported £350,000 with a combined TV documentary, was never published in Britain and for a time was banned in Portugal during the long running civil legal battle.
He claimed the three-year-old girl died accidentally in the flat and  her parents covered up the death and hid her body.

Kate and Gerry from Rothey, Leics, vehemently denied his claims, insisting Maddie was kidnapped while left alone with her younger twin siblings as they dined nearby with pals.
A source close to Amaral said: “His second book is being published and is going to come out at the end of April for maximum impact. He thinks it will be a big hit.
“Mr Amaral knows that the world is fascinated with the Maddie story and her parents.”

Portuguese Supreme Court judges ruled he had the right to “freedom of expression” and that Maddie’s parents were not “formally in the clear” over their missing daughter.
Amaral, 57, said: “Winning the appeal case gives me no joy or happiness. It is just part of the legal process.
“I wanted to defend my reputation, and the integrity of the officers who worked with me, in the courts but now I just want a quiet peaceful life.”

More threats but again this is old news.  Why are we getting daily recycled stories? What is the benefit here for the McCanns? Tracey is supposed to be on their side , isn't she? Who gets paid for these articles, do they come from the McCanns PR? So many questions, so few answers.

Err um errrr, how can this pal of Mr & Mrs know what Rocky is going to do and what he is thinking?  Do they have a hotline to him then?

BORING.

Solicitors are watching, yeah they told him that last time but he still went ahead.

Publishers wouldn't dare print it in English - about time British laws were changed imo.

Stifling free speech if you ask me, no strangling free speech more like imo.

Portuguese Supreme Court​ 

Goncalo Amaral has​ the right to " Freedom of expression " 

Kate , Gerry , source close to the family , Tracey Which​ part​ of that​ do you Not understand​

Stop​ churning out​ this " ludicrous " b...ocks 

It's really not doing​ you​ any favours .

Good luck to GA. 

Hope he finishes the second book very soon.

It would be great if people like Anna , Aspro and others could translate the book into English so that at least holidaymakers could buy a copy or three and bring them home.

I would like to see a website selling PDF versions, so convenient for phones, tablets and PCs.

I'd buy it!

Last book was a very good read.

How do the McCanns or their source know Dr Amaral's book contains poisonous lies -  are they clairvoyant?  Certainly they're not a good judge of character.  Who knows, he let them off very lightly in 'The Truth of the Lie' (plug!) so what's to say he might be inclined towards leniency.



McCann'ish threats are getting rather tedious as is their mystic meg'erie.

Maybe​ Tracey​ read​ it in her tea bags err sorry tea leaves 

Or looked in her crystal​ ball , 

Is Mystic Meg still around ? 

Maybe they called​ Yvette Fielding​ and the​ Most Haunted team , they' re as fake as all this​ is ! 

Amaral​ is not poisonous , vindictive​ or litigious neither​ is he full of self righteous​ness and self importance .

He has waited​ 8 years with patience and dignity and kept his own​ council , that will​ not change​ now​ 

He was prevented​ in 2007 from getting truth​ and justice for Madeleine , hopefully his time​ is fast​ approaching .

One 'question' answered!

Since 'our' Trace has been 'tippy tapping' supposedly 'supportive' erm, 'musings' about the McCan'ts, since they LOST again against GA, HUNDREDS OF THOUSANDS of 'people' have now 'investigated', for themselves, the published Portuguese 'files', the 'contradictions and discrepancies' in the T9 'statements', watched 'videos' and 'interviews'.

All having been 'directed there', by .........'our' Trace!

"What is the benefit here for the McCanns?"

Apart from the 'invaluable/priceless' PUBLICITY for GA's book, and forthcoming book, there really isn't an 'upside' for the McCan'ts, as 'our' Trace keeps on 'banging out' erm, 'stories' that just, imo, point, continuously, to the McCan'ts 'irresponsible parenting' of their, deliberately, consciously, leaving 3 kiddies alone, all under 4 years of age, to 'fend for themselves' whilst they 'enjoyed' themselves...... elsewhere.

KEEP UP THE 'GOOD WORK' Trace!

They get to be the underdog again. People love underdogs. Also it is still a minority that takes the troubles to go and research for themselves.

The usual McCann claptrap of the past no longer sells, and this is a last ditch effort in the run up to the anniversary to generate a modicum of interest.  Mitchell is desperate to spin something new but has done everything to death, and this latest pathetic ensemble is all he has left (imo)!

Now their lies a challenge! It all smacks of desperation and a group of cornered rats fighting for their very survival. But hey, the cobra of public opinion is spitting viciously in their direction.

Any way if all else fails maybe Amaral can crowd fund the book. It worked for his legal fight and we're all still waiting with baited breath to see what he has to say about all the developments in the last 9 years since Truth of The Lie.

The Supreme Court has officially confirmed in neon lights that the McCanns have not been cleared of committing a heinous crime, and that suspicion still looms over their heads.  Hopefully this will clear the way for Goncalo Amaral to find a publisher in the UK.  But whatever happens, his new book IN ENGLISH is going to be massive (imo).

Clear away all the rubbish​ and what​ do we have ?

MSM have successfully​ promoted The Truth of the Lie and the new book​ 

People don't like being told​ what they can't do , so more people searching​ for the book online​ watching videos discovering forums like this .

Own goal ?

My thanks to all those wonderful people who have translated massive amounts of data over many years, to keep us up-to-date and informed on all the REAL McCann news coming out of Portugal, and without whom we would have to rely on the likes of Sky News et al 

Dr Amaral is painstakingly writing his new book in English as he wants to insure there are no errors in translation; he is a brave gentleman with a mission, and I can't wait to read what he is alluding to!

If his recent performance on Portugese tv is anything to go by I think his book will be excellent with no errors and very many are waiting with excitement for this next installment.

Only a few more weeks to go.

Yaay!

One day we get the headline " McCanns face financial ruin".  The next "a family pal" warns British publishers off with threats of litigation  if they publish Mr Amaral's second book. They are also warning people about "sharing" the book "madeleine" on line.

In both instances they say " Kate and Gerry's lawyers are watching".

So, presumably these lawyers who are doing all this "watching" must be getting paid, unless it is pro bono or no win, no fee. Somehow, I don't think Carter Ruck work on the latter basis,  although, according to previous claims, a lot of legal work was once done behind  the scenes pro bono.

So, if the possibilty of bankruptcy is real following the Supreme Court ruling, where is the money coming from for further litigation?

I hate to say it, but it is possible that our defamation laws might work in their favour. However,  it is the  litigious  nature of the McCanns that is one of the main  driving forces behind public fury. So it will depend on their appetite for taking things to the wire with the unimaginable impact it will have on the  twins as they work towards g.c.s.e.

I would say, yes this one comes from the McCanns P.R.  No comments are allowed and we have the usual quote from the 'family friend' .

The whole point of this story seems to be to print the words 'lies' and 'legal action' next to something about Goncalo Amaral's new book, it's just propaganda. who do they think they are, saying no UK publishers would 'dare' to print it?..... especially after receiving such a dressing down from a supreme court?!

The press keep telling us that this "10th anniversary" is "important". As if it's some big deal. Is it a more important date than 1 year, 2 years etc. Every minute of every day that my child was "missing" would be "important". As a parent, I certainly wouldn't entertain this nonsense.

Yes, that's very true. 

I was totally shocked to read the 10th Anniversary was being planned a year ago. If a child is 'missing' they could return before then. Couldn't they?? ...

It seems the main characters of this whole thing have forgotten the main reason they still "search" (IMO)

The FIRST anniversary was being planned within weeks of Madeleine going missing.  I still remember the shock at seeing how enthusiastic Gerry was about it all.

Reading the discussions about Gonçalo Amaral's book being produced in English, I recall Kitty Kelley publishing a less than flattering book about the Royal Family, which was promptly banned from being published or sold in the UK. Result .... overseas booksellers did a roaring trade selling the English version to Brits travelling abroad. 
I still have mine

It makes me wonder why they would embarrass themselves by saying that knowing that only a few days ago the Supreme Court gave them the final ruling and they have lost their case against G Amaral and his non libellous book.  Someone said earlier that the McCanns want to be seen as the underdog or wtte but I don't believe, even with all the lies and misinformation,  there are many people who would see them as the underdogs, not now.

My sentiments exactly !  Same applies to Christmas, birthdays etc. being more important than any other day.  Just listen to the words of the parents McCann', when interviewed for the Crimewatch 2013 Madeleine McCann special, broadcast by the BBC.  It starts @ 18:11 minutes..



Roughly transcribed..

Presenter:  Do you alwlays feel concscious that there's a Madeleine shaped hole there..

Gerry McCann:  When it's a special occassion and you should be at your happiest and ...errrm ... Madeleine's not there... that's when it really hits home.  Obviously Madeleine's birthday goes without saying but .... [interupted by KM]

Kate McCann:  Yeh... it's only family occassions really ... err... that's basically it isn't it [feigned laugh] the family occassion.... when you haven't got your complete family

Nauseating. They're saying only on family occasions do they really think of her...

I simply can't get into my head that anyone who had genuinely had a child go missing would think that way even for a second.

If I may revert to the Crimewatch interview again, this was said by the narrator/presenter Matthew Amroliwala  [see above video @ 17 minutes] ..

"In July 2008, more than year after she disappeared, the Portuguese investigation was closed and all the suspects including Kate and Gerry, where formally cleared"

This is of course factually incorrect - the suspects were not formally cleared, as has since been confirmed by the Lisbon Courts and more recently ratified by the Lisbon Supreme Court.

This Crimewatch production was worked in association with the Metropolitan Police, Operation Grange, and the McCanns themselves.  What hope is there that UK authorities are on-side?
