I have some issues with how they investigated the Cipriano case. The beatings, the perjury, the police officers who became convicted criminals, etc etc. I find their hypothesis of incest, freezer & then pigs, to be a rationale that only the 07 PJ could have come up with.It would be laughable if it wasn’t so serious.
There is no real evidence in the Cipriano case, but my ‘gut feeling’ (only) is that they probably caught the right people but certainly didn’t go about it in a professional or rational way. Obviously I’m far more assured with crimes like DM’s rape. A non-preferential sex offender’s DNA was found in the bed of the rape victim. IMO There’s simply no rational argument in defence of CB for this crime. ‘Planted’ or sneaky cats doesn’t wash with me.
I’ve always been intrigued by major crimes & disasters, what appears rather typical, is that the early rumours & the under pressure LEA blunders somehow make their way to becoming the ‘popular‘ story or the ‘facts’ about the case. In time, when facts emerge, that myth, gossip & rumour unravel. It took external LEA’s to come in & slowly start to unwind this mess, but in some respects it was too late, because the flawed logic had already implanted into the minds of too many people & become their ‘truth’. The PJ eventually concluded the McCann’s were not responsible & I fully agree with that.
Regarding transparency, there’s what one wants & there’s the possible reality. I would like to know all the facts (hard as that may be) but I’m not convinced I will do. This isn’t a fictional drama & I don’t expect it to materialise like one. We’re invested by intrigue but we don’t have a stake in this. IMO it would be inexcusably egoo to assume that we have the right to know. That said, i do think we’ll find out many facts & I don’t think anybody will be able to form an argument in favour of CB after those facts emerge. JMO
