New German suspect in Madeleine McCann mystery disappearance.

[Robittybob1]

I think that has already been identifies as having been contributed by Charlie Gordon.

Snip
I conclude further that, the DNA profiles obtained from the 'crime stain 1' and 286A/2007/CRL9A & B coincide with Charlie Gordon (bar code 51156964). I believe that Charlie Gordon was born on 29 January 2005, and if this is the case, in my opinion, the DNA profile obtained in 'crime stain 1' is not the result of semen found on the blanket.

So it wasn't Charlie Gordon!

It seems that the Portuguese laboratory got unidentified DNA from the spot on the bedspread;

Autosomic STRs:

- were obtained from:

...the small spot on the piece of cloth (recovered from the bedspread of the bed next to the window in the children's bedroom Env.5).

...With respect to autosomic STRs the male genetic profile identified from the spot on the cloth fragment (bedspread of the bed next to window in the children's bedroom- Env 5) did not match any profile from the reference samples.

If Germany have suspected Bruckner for 7 years surely they must have retested these samples by now?
   If that one matched it would be game over for him.

Even without retesting, they could run his profile against them to see if there is a match.
I can't believe they haven't done this.
 A non match doesn't exclude him, just isn't of any use.

Having recently done an Ancestry type DNA test, I find I have thousands of matches, many of them so tenuous as to be meaningless.

I wonder if Belgium has re-opened the case of Carola Titze because Brückner’s ex-girlfriend said that he once told her that he was dating a girl while on holiday with the name of Carol?

Yes Jassi, that's what I meant. re-run the profile obtained.

They have evidence so he's a suspect but they cant question him because they dont have evidence What?

Brueckner has not been charged over Madeleine's disappearance in 2007 and cannot be held for it. Prosecutors admitted they didn't have enough evidence to question him

I dare say it has lost something in translation, but I'm assuming he has rights similar to a free man and cannot be questioned without sufficient evidence to meet certain criteria.
Perhaps similar to arrest under suspicion in UK, where police can only hold & question for a certain length of time.

All very confused and that's just me

Each passing day the link to Madeleine is even more tenuous.

What I think is very concerning is - who is behind this avalanche of fake news.

When at the moment it all stems from hearsay at a bar.

IMO someone+ is desperate to blame someone, anyone - apart from the obvious ones.

Why on earth would they re-open a case again on hearsay from an ex?

The first name at that - a very common first name at that.

Because that’s how desperate the need to convict this man has become.

[Vertigo Swirl]

You said I was 'glossing over his crimes' (specifically the child sex ones.) which generally means to whitewash.   I think you know what game you are playing and I'll leave it at that.

Yes, I’d agree you were trying to whitewash over his crimes.  I didn’t however accuse you of sympathising with a child abuser. I really don’t know why some of you sceptics are keen to downplay the seriousness of this man’s past crimes, I’m certainly not the one playing games here.

"The description (of Christian B., now 43) fits," Gevaert told Belgian newspaper De Standaard.
