New German suspect in Madeleine McCann mystery disappearance.

[Wonderfulspam]

I couldn't care less about the McCanns, I've always said and have seen nothing to change my mind in that, person/s unknown removed Madeleine from 5a without leaving  a trace to her whereabouts.Once the investigation into CB concludes with him ruled out, the investigation isn't left with much room for manoeuvre.

......there's still another 7 billion people need ruling out so there's plenty of work left to be done.

So far 3 police forces during 13 years have only succeeded in ruling 9 people out. (the McCanns & Tapas 7)

No mention of ruling out Robert Murat yet so I guess he's still very much in the frame.

At the moment the only individual "very much in the frame" is the one this thread is about and the one the German authorities have found evidence against which they are in the process of checking out.

Speculation elsewhere is unwarranted and off topic unless it refers to "New German suspect in Madeleine McCann mystery disappearance."

I think the very fact they are happy to admit that their suspicions re CB and Inge show how open and honest they are which strengthens my opinion re CB and concrete evidence and the MM case. It interests me how they have managed to rule him out.

Relying on recycled information from British tabloids is never really a successful avenue for accuracy in my opinion.

We know first hand what the German prosecutors are doing in Brueckner's case regarding their investigation into Madeleine's disappearance because they have told us so.

I'm not sure how much information is in the public domain regarding other cases; I'm not aware of him being ruled out of other investigations apart from that in British tabloids.

IMO they could only have ruled him out on the basis of a cast iron alibi, though there is no mention of one in the article.  But yes, as you point out, it indicates that they DO have strong evidence against CB in the Madeleine case otherwise he would presumably have also been ruled out of that one by now too.

No Alibi?  Who wouldn't produce an Alibi if they have one?

It was one evening thirteen years ago. Do you know what you did on the 3rd of May 13 years ago because I certainly don’t.

On what other basis could CB have been eliminated of involvement in the disappearance of Inga Gehricke?  Unless only on the basis of a lack of evidence, which as we all know doesn't mean he didn't do it (a mantra much beloved of McCann sceptics, lest we forget).

Ah Ha.  I do.  I was sitting in bed on my Lap Top looking for something to do.

Had there been an alibi it would have been produced in the early days and we probably would never have heard of Brueckner.

Despite the passage of the years since 2007 I'm sure events such as his release from prison ~ his trip with the young Germans in his camper van ~ signing over his car to a friend ~ would in my opinion have made the relevant time easy to recall to mind.
If he had no witnesses to his whereabouts because for example he had been burglarising a property ~ the evidence for that would probably still be on record.

It is plain that the Germans have evidence pointing to his involvement in Madeleine's disappearance ~ if he had an alibi covering that period, I am sure we would have heard about it.  Particularly as his lawyer likes to envisage Brits falling off their chairs.

He could have been eliminated by the fact the Germans knew where he was that day. My thoughts have always been that HCW is building a picture of where CB was on important days by contacting all his known associates.
It would then point to the fact that none of his associates know where he was on May 3rd. HCW may well be pre empting his alibi

According to reports they've spoken to his girlfriend who knew exactly where she and CB were on May 2nd. She could be a very important witness. I would think most in Luz would remember where they were during those hectic days

Why would the fact that none of his associates knew where he was on the third make any difference to the case?

[Mr Gray]

Because if everyday during that period can be accounted for apart from 3rd May onwards it raises a red flag. He was a sociable person so if he disappeared off the radar during that time it's highly significant
