Yeah, he says it’s because he’s worried about the safety of himself and his family. They’re genuine concerns (not mine) that dangerous people will go after them and I don’t think not naming them will affect the decision on his parole. Only a few years back in jail he was heard using the same racist language that was used the night of the murder. He clearly hasn’t changed and never will. He’ll be refused parole on that basis and rightly so.

Mr Russell Flint KC asked Mr McCann why they did not support a DNA test, following calls from Julia Wandelt's "supporters" for one to be carried out. "There's three reasons," Mr McCann said. "We didn't believe she was Madeleine, we'd been reassured by the Metropolitan Police following their investigations within Poland she was who her name is. "Lastly, it's not our responsibility to do a DNA test, it's a matter for investigative forces." The McCanns did not discuss a DNA test "until after her arrest", the court was told. "We didn't think there was any doubt she was not Madeleine," Mr McCann said. Mr Russell Flint KC asked: "Did you ever wonder what if?" Mr McCann responded: "To be honest, no." https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/live/cvgr7vpx8qdt please log in to view this image
I loved the bit by the King's Counsel that asked the question which I was thinking at the time... "Did you ever wonder what if?" I am a tad surprised after nearly two decades that they've never had a DNA test. Although having said that, I can't think what use it would be, beyond this stalker. or as you ask 'something they know' Btw I don't think for one minute the girl is who she thinks she is, but I like the questions in the sense it enables us to measure the replies of the McCanns, because let's be honest they are always under suspicion around their part in all this with no body ever found...even if their part is neglect rather than anything more sinister.
... bit that concerned me was the judge seemingly factoring his relatively 'high intelligence' into the sentencing ... if he is really that ****ing bright he can't be excused for being stupid, so even more reason to properly punish the scrote!
Scottish courts give intentionally light sentences to younger people for first-time offences I think. Sure we discussed it here with a worse example of someone avoiding prison time entirely for noncing or something.
Some guy has been rearrested over the Manchester syngogue attack. They brought a total of six people in originally for questioning, two had been released and I think another four were due to be released, all without charge.
Makes me wonder if he was trying to leave the country... Police have re-arrested a man who was previously held following the Manchester synagogue terror attack. Counter Terrorism Police said the 30-year-old man, who was arrested on October 1 on suspicion of the commission, preparation and instigation of acts of terrorism, was today re-arrested on suspicion of Failing to Disclose Information contrary to S38B of the Terrorism Act 2000 at Manchester Airport. He has been released on bail with conditions. A statement said: "The man was arrested at 12.34pm under PACE at Manchester Airport earlier today and has since been released on bail with conditions. "We do not believe there is any ongoing threat to the public following the incident last week." https://www.mirror.co.uk/news/uk-news/breaking-manchester-terror-police-re-35320455
