No one christabell absolutely no one because imo no one gives a dam.....those who do, don't have the power to anything because those who are suppose to be doing something have other priorities.and the kids have no f"king voice.None at all

They took those kids from their parents for protection and put them into a state home(where they are suppose be cared for) and they were sexually abused.Thats disgusting,they need to shut that home lock everyone of the b"stards up that work there because don't tell me they didn't know....the parents raised concerned but the staff didn't?????like hell.

It makes me sick.Drives nails through me when people seem to think that a kid can be used and then they are discarded of like a piece of trash that isn't needed anymore.And noone is willing to help them and arrest these crazy sad excuses of human beings because its easier to brush it under the f"king carpet. And thats the top and bottom line of the matter.

Problem is when these kids grown up whos going to help them pick the pieces up when they look back and have to face yet again.............the mess forced onto them by these sickos???NOone because once again its seen as the past and no longer a priority anymore. They are alone when they are abused and they a;one when they ave t fix their tormented minds............Shame they don't do enough in the first place. Sick to imo.

I would gladly smash the faces in of those who have done this to them.Infact i think they should allow these people to be sentenced by their victims.I think thats only fair,after all they are the ones who truly know how bad the crime was.Not a judge,not a cop and no one else either. And the accused shouldn't be given rights.They dont deserve them.Anyone who believes they should be given rights and a chance in court is as bad as them. personally i wouldn't want hear the reasons given by one of them sickos,what possible reason could they give that would be good enough tog ive them a lighter sentence,what possible reason would they have that a jury would want to be listening to???

NOw the ex governor said without a shadow of doubt she believes abuse is still going on at casa pia,social services in Portugal said it wasn't they were confident of that because they visited the home and spoke to staff????What a f"ucking shambles.Whos responsible for the pain those kids have endured and the emotions and upset they have yet to come???.......the staff, the social services, the whole frigging state imo.

I am fuming over this because they knew.They were told,and they have yet again done nothing.Makes me wanna cry,why don't people think its important?No wonder people abuse kids. They can .

So despite the ongoing case of Casa Pia in the Portuguese courts, the abuse continues, just as the former matron of this home said it was.

Despite this the Portuguese authorities have allowed certain people to get away with abusing children in the Casa Pia scandal, because it will shed a bad light over Portugal and again people in high places are being protected and the concerns over tourism, seem to take precedence over children in the care of the State!

How long are the good and decent people of Portugal going to continue sticking their heads in the sand and refuse to see what is going on right underneath their noses?

I know that there are good decent Portuguese people, I have had the privilege to be in contact with many this past two years, some really kind and caring lovely people and some really extremely brave and noble people too and I have also come to learn that not every member of the PJ is corrupt, there are many who do that job for the good of their country. All these people have one thing in common they are banging their heads against a brick wall, in order for change to happen, for Portugal to be as much as a democracy as any other European country (as much as we are democratic I accept that) then there has to be a sea change of opinion in Portugal and people have to wake up to the fact that there is corruption on a large scale and that their needs a people and their safety and their family's safety is NOT being considered as well as it might be.
There is still an undercurrent of fear in Portugal, people seem scared witless of some in authority.

Until these basic problems are tackled, then children will continue to disappear, people will wrongly be accused, innocent people will continue to be beaten, tortured and end up in prison for something they did not do and children will continue to be abused.

Anyone speaking out about this or trying to do something about it, will be publicly humiliated, ridiculed and framed. Don't believe me? Look it up for yourselves!

Look at what happened n the Casa Pia case.
Look at what happened to Leonor Cipriano.
Look at what happened to Kate and Gerry McCann.
