Goncalo Amaral.

If, as you frequently proclaim, Amaral's mind was made up immediately, why did the PJ investigate Murat so thoroughly?

If, as you have repeatedly claimed, OG are so professional and well trained, what have they been doing with those 7,000 phone calls for nine years?

As I understand it CB was first mentioned in 2013, but not investigated. What were OG doing?

It seems to me that getting that phone number allegedly belonging to CB was the German's lucky break. When it was checked with the phone info it was active on 3rd May in the vicinity.

That's what the info was for, imo, to be available as needed.

In all likelihood its looking like the phone was a false dawn.

That's 6 week old news.

Obsession know no bounds.

...and I believe he was showing the actual photos of the van that they investigated at the time, as opposed to the totally inaccurate ones das bizzies showed to the planet.
But that's OK, let's just go with the wrong photos and hope for an accurate response anyway.

Its the new news I'm interested in. It seems Breukner really came to the attention of the investigators after kate and Gerry made an appeal on german TV  around the ten year anniversary

I like that caveat - German police.

I'm wondering if he's got 'mixed up' with a camper belonging to some "hippie" or other.

So much information it's difficult sorting the wheat from the chaff.

Detectives identified the convicted sex offender as a key suspect in 2013, but their intel was ignored by the country’s Federal Criminal Office, according to magazine Der Spiegel.

Possible, but the number plates matched, as I recall.

The information is acquired to be used in investigations to progress the case.  Not to be set aside for a rainy day on the off chance that it might be 'needed' ten years down the line in this case.


500 calls were received after Gerry and Kate McCann appeared on German TV’s Crimewatch equivalent, Aktenzeichen XY, in 2013.
Brueckner was brought to police attention as a direct result.

Go on then, let's hypothesise. How could the PJ have progressed the case by noticing that two unregistered phones shared a call at 7.30pm on 3rd May 2007?

Then the Germans sat on it for 7 yrs it seems.

They did? The German police photos didn't show a license plate.

Don't let me stand in your way.  If you feel like hypothesising please fire away ... I don't think there is any room to hypothesise since the facts of the matter have all already been stated on the forum ... but you've obviously missed them.

Shortly before Madeleine's disappearance the van doesn't show the cartoon characters painted on the van as shown by Amaral either.  https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-8576985/Madeleine-McCann-suspect-Christian-Brueckner-kidnap-campervan-weeks-vanished.html
