Ricardo Paiva responsible for marking leads as "irrelevant"
Old story, but at this time worth an airing as a reminder of the cock ups. (Deliberate I'd say).

COPS in Portugal ignored hundreds of "sightings" of Madeleine McCann - because they believed she was dead, it was claimed yesterday.
Inspector Ricardo Paiva also neglected to show her parents "shockingly similar" photos the public had sent in believing they were Maddie - or act on tip-offs.
'Shocked' ... Gerry and Kate outside Lisbon court
Instead he put every bit in a dossier after writing on it: "Not relevant to the investigation". Maddie's parents, Kate and Gerry, only learnt the file existed this week.
Maddie, now six, vanished from a holiday resort in Praia da Luz, Portugal, in May 2007.
Paiva, the McCanns' family liaison officer, started collating the dossier in July 2008 after cops called off the hunt.
It contains information from police forces across Europe including sightings, photos of houses where people reported seeing Maddie and tips-offs.
Isabel Duarte, the McCanns' solicitor, asked to see the dossier after Paiva mentioned it at a court hearing.
Kate and Gerry, both 41, from Rothley, Leics, were shown it this week while in Lisbon for a different case brought by former police chief Goncalo Amaral.
The 50-year-old, who headed the initial hunt, is fighting for a ban on a book he wrote about Maddie to be lifted. In it, he claims Maddie is dead and her parents faked her abduction.
Mrs Duarte branded Paiva a "liar" in court when he claimed he would reopen the Maddie case if new information came forward.
She said yesterday: "Every piece was treated the same way - Ricardo Paiva writes on it, 'this is not relevant to the investigation'.
"He believed, and to this day still believes, that Madeleine is dead.
"I said to him, 'How can you find a person when you are not looking for them?'"
She said some pictures of girls in the file were "shockingly similar to Madeleine".
The McCanns' spokesman, Clarence Mitchell, said they were shocked at what was in the file, and that little had been done to investigate it.
He said: "Their private investigators will follow up everything they can."
Inspector Paiva declined to comment.

Cock Ups?
Porn. Reported. We really don't want to know about Paiva's peculiar proclivities. Well, I don't.

Well really, Pedro. It's bordering on the obscene. And now I have nightmares about it.
PS. Where's The Popcorn Smilie?

Remember that Karma.
Apparently its a *****, and Paiva along with his mates, are on the way to finding out.
