New German suspect in Madeleine McCann mystery disappearance.

Portugal seems to be dragging its heels and being unwilling to co operate...shame on them. i wonder why they didnt prosecute CB for the rape

Because they’re disgraceful, incompetent, sloppy and ignorant.

They also like to brush things under the carpet in case it affects their tourism, which is all they’ve got — besides Port.

Final warning...any further comments of a personal nature I will start editing/removing posts.

I think much of the criticism of PJ stems from stereotypical views held by many Europeans from the colder climes about their Southern European counterparts.

It's hardly under developed.  What % of GDP comes from tourism?

Wrong way round I believe.  He was found guilty but the sentence hasn't been imposed.

Wrong again!...

And yet the Global Peace Index has PT in top 3 for 2019 so you would think CB might stand out like a sore thumb if what we're being told by the media has any truth to it.

There’s literally loads of links to hw Portugal has been a paedophiles paradise for years and years...I believe that’s why CB chose to live there in the first place.

Here’s just one link....read the last part, especially, where it says how lax the police are; how they ignore what’s happening; how even police themselves are involved....

Wrong again!...

The sentence hasn't been imposed because of an ongoing appeal:

I read through some official reports last night, that are all factual and unbiased

The man seen by Martin Smith and his family carrying a child and who resembled Gerry, later detracted it when told that so many witnesses had Gerry sat in the Tapas Bar at 10pm that night. It was also some distance from the complex; about a quarter of a mile, I believe — who would walk down busy streets (someone said it was like Piccadilly Circus) carrying a dead child in their arms?

I believe Martin Smith was telling the truth, but the man he saw was possibly a local or holidaymaker taking their sleeping daughter home or to their hotel. If the man wasn’t British he may have no idea Smith was referring to him; it didn’t make the news for months on end, and the man probably never even read about it.

Whatever, the police ruled that sighting out as being Gerry.

There’s is the remote possibility the man was another paedophile, but again, they’re not going to walk the streets with a child they’ve kidnapped. And they certainly wouldn’t want a dead child.

The Jane Tanner sighting, which the Portuguese police said she’d made up, turned out to be a holidaymaker taking his child back from night crèche. He came forward about a year later.

But as far as the Smith sighting is concerned — it defintely wasn’t Gerry

You need to read a little deeper. Martin Smith has never retracted his identification.

The UK can hardly criticise another country when it knighted one of its most notorious paedophiles.

I believe the mccs already have closure - as they have already said all this is disrupting there lives.

As for the rest of the post, we know all that - we read the same media reports as you.

Thought I’d come back to you again

Besides your comment claiming Kate and Gerry have closure, you also said all this is disrupting their lives: yet according to their spokesman he says they both welcome this new line if interest!

Brueckner is serving time for drug offences.

Oh, well he’s got that to look forward to in that case...

Good one.  I had almost forgotten about Casa Pia.  Most of them got away with it you know.

All the images are incriminating...just the possession of them...so he obviously thought they wouldnt be found.

I think it is possible that there are image/s that the German prosecutor is referring to, which may have both Madeleine and Brückner on the same image/s. Therefore, his conviction as to what happened to Madeleine. My heart goes out to her parents and siblings.

You’re right — I miswrote.

Martin Smith didn’t retract his statement: he accepted the fact that the man he saw couldn’t have been Gerry as Gerry was sat in the Tapas Bar between 9:15pm and 10:10pm
