The evidence so far seems to be that the suspect lived near PDL for a time, he made a phone call lasting nearly 30 minutes to an unknown person on the night of the third, he allegedly boasted of some part in Madeleine’s disappearance and he has previous for sexual assaults.
Against is he does not match any of the descriptions of men seem with a child on the 3rd and although the police have one/both of his vehicles they do not seem to have harvested any forensics from them, that we know of.
All we need is a burned letter from a relative and we have Raymond Hewlett all over again
I was never overly convinced by the burned letter saga.
However, to me, this does seem like a serious lead.
It seems that Phone No. 2 phone HIM, not the other way round. It could have been an innocent phone call, but still useful to find out who called and what that person may have known about the current suspect.
There was apparently a rubbish bin with wigs... of what type? Outlandish ones, or ones that could have been used as a plausible disguise? If there had been no obvious reason to keep the bin-sack, I expect it was thrown out.
An article expanded on what the neighbour who cleaned the house allegedly found: computer pieces. However, I'm sceptical of tabloids, so there's no way of knowing whether that's accurate or not.
Both vehicles are now apparently in the hands of German forensics... but how long after did they get hold of them?
