If you're a lawyer, you'd understand that sometimes there are good reasons not to answer legitimate questions, without it being because of guilt. I think there are questions unanswered here, but if everything remains as it is, without any new evidence, I have no idea how people can possibly think they understand more than the Portuguese who were desperate to prosecute them.

If they were guilty and it could be proved, it would have saved the Portuguese legal system from a world of unnecessary hurt. Extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence - and there isn't anything other than Chinese whispers on the internet.
