Should the Germans Have Dropped Their Investigation By Now?

[Anthro]

I'm aware that HCW has made some big bold claims and yet CB hasn't even been interviewed.

Mr Wolters has clarified why Brückner has not been interviewed as yet by the BKA and himself as prosecutor.

I really don’t think the McCanns are the best people to give a rational view of the situation, in much the same way as Kerry Needham hasn’t given up hope of finding Ben alive.

The MET is still treating as a missing person.

[Holly Goodhead]

I think Wolters is painstakingly building a record of where CB was around the time of the disappearance by interviewing every associate of CB. [He needs to return one more time to Portugal to complete it... But Portugal is off limits at the moment.
IMO when he has all this info he will then interview CB...

Has BKA/HCW visited Portugal in connection with MM?

I'm sure there'll be a  good reason for that.

Perhaps you wouldn't mind supplying the cite.  Thanks.

I think HCW, a Johnny-come-lately, wants to make a name for himself on the back of the MM case. 

A criminal associate of CB's has implicated him in MM's disappearance (probably because it has benefitted him in some way) and this along with the phone call, car re-reg, CB's criminal past, and the fact MM's whereabouts remains unknown, has led HCW to believe CB is his man.  He knows its a long shot but is prepared to take a punt and made a public appeal in anticipation of securing some evidence, but so far nothing hence CB hasn't even been interviewed let alone charged.

Nothing much to loose for HCW until such time the case takes a different direction and then he will have to face the music...

Since Brückner is a German citizen, authorities will do what they have to do. In my opinion, they have stumbled upon something related to Madeleine while investigating Inga Gehricke’s disappearance. Your notion of Mr Wolters seems superficial.

I was rather hoping that it might be the person/s responsible for abducting Madeleine who would be "facing the music" and I'm quite content to let the professionals get on with the job of doing that.

I think it will be those who have underestimated Wolters who will end up with egg their face... I look forward to it

It’s an opinion but I think it would be far wiser to keep it to yourself  until a decision is made on whether or not to charge CB.

Your post doesn't make sense because he could have done all that without his concrete evidence claim..

Or overestimate.

Wolters revealing why he hasn't revealed evidence -


Mr Wolters said: "If you knew the evidence we had you would come to the same conclusion as I do but I can't give you details because we don't want the accused to know what we have on him - these are tactical considerations."

It appears OG haven’t been told either.

What ‘tactical considerations’ would stop one police authority sharing information with another who they are supposed to be working with do you think?

OG haven’t commented recently.  Perhaps they have now been brought up to speed.
