New German suspect in Madeleine McCann mystery disappearance.

Are you suggesting that the Mirror invented that quote?

Newspapers primary role is to make money for their owners, news is only a secondary concern.  The more sensational the story the more interest it draws, true or fake.

I think that's probably the most likely explanation.

If so, hardly what one could describe as a thorough investigation of someone who was in the vicinity at the time (phone records), had a criminal record in PT for theft, had been extradited twice back to Germany by the time Amaral was interviewed on TV for the dreadlocks show (although only once prior to her disappearance, but related to a child abuse case), had residences close to where both children Joana and Madeleine disappeared, various un- or under-investigated cases of sexual abuse of adults and children....

Althouth Bruckner had numerous convictions for drug peddling in Germany, I haven't found anything so far for any in the Algarve. Did Bruckner stop all the time he was there?

Maybe he just didn't get caught.

It doesn't quite fit the bill when measured against the wrecking ball publicly launched by Amaral against the present German investigation.

There has to be an explanation for that. As time progresses and with what we always knew about the darkness associated with the crime against Madeleine and the other children who were attacked - I think Amaral might well find himself having to explain his conduct to the appropriate people.

Are you suggesting that the quote attributed to a named Police Inspector from Paraguay which has been reproduced in newspapers the world over is wholly fictitious?

Off topic but relevant to the role in news.

The supposed impartial BBC is not above using subterfuge for an interview.

An independent inquiry by Lord Dyson, a former senior judge, found journalist Martin Bashir used deception to secure the interview and then lied to BBC managers.

Who are these appropriate people, I wonder?

Doesn't he believe that Brueckner is being fitted up as a fall guy? He probably won't accept Brueckner's guilt even if the Germans try him and find him guilty.

There is this - I doubt the tabloid made this quote up

Commissioner Nimio Cardozo, of the Paraguay police anti-kidnap section, said: “There are elements, we believe, whereby our security agencies could contribute to clarifying the Madeleine case.

“We are continuing work on trying to help resolve it.

Perhaps the phone number who called Brückner’s number on 3 May, belongs to Christian Kruse? For two reasons: the caller was not in the region as stated by Mr Wolters; and the appeal for the owner of that number could have been discovered since the appeal in 2020? My opinion.

The caller was not in the region of the mast which showed the call, but it was a Portuguese mobile phone in Portugal imo. So it was Kruse only if he was in Portugal with a burner phone on 3rd May 2007 imo.

I think all those who have claimed cipriano is guilty because the court said so won't accept a guilty verdict on CB

He'll probably say that if only he hadn't been taken off the case, he'd have come to the same conclusion (as whatever turns out to be the outcome).
