Fair enough. Not everyone has facial recognition skills. The two men may be the same person or not. Like you, I don’t know.

You don’t need to have good facial recognition skills to see there is no similarity between Bruckner and the artist’s impression of the man Copper saw...a man for which there is not a scintilla of evidence connecting him to Madeleine’s disappearance.

Yes, but also consider that Brückner’s farmhouse is only about 1.5 km from Espiche.

Did Brueckner’s girlfriend run the orphanage from his house ?

Gosh.  Did she?

[faithlilly]

Gosh.  Did she?

I don’t know...that’s why I’m asking.

She ran it from Foral where Brückner stayed on the property in his Winnebago.

So not from his farmhouse?

I wonder if it was the same orphanage that the so-called charity collector was referencing when he was out collecting cash from Ocean Club holiday makers...

Gosh.  Did she?

Soz, but no, that was about 40 miles away in Foral IIRC

Did Brueckner’s girlfriend run the orphanage?   I just can't quite get my mind around this one yet.  This guy who is possibly a pedophile has a girlfriend who runs an orphanage.  Is that true?  How come Michael Tatschl never mentioned that?

Unless, Brückner used a wig and props discovered at his residence.

For some reason Anthro, your comparison photos haven't carried over, but they were shown in your post  Today at 12:58:07 PM

Let's not forget that these are sketches compared to photos, and we cant expect sketches of a person not actually viewed by the artist to be perfect

The eyebrows are altogether different, But comparing the top left hand photo of Bruckner to the bottom right hand sketch of Cooperman:

1)  Both have long slim faces
2)  Both have fairly long slim noses
3)  Their lips are dead ringers, width, length and shape wise.
4)  There is a likeness between their teeth


I suggest, on the back boiler with it, Anthro, you never know with the photo being compared to only a quick rough sketch drawn by someone ( good artist) who drew it from description only.

Yep.

Foral and that orphanage are another story IMO.

Interesting thoughts here. 

1)  Barbed wire surrounding the place
2)  Video directions on how to reach there, which don't make sense to me., when it is only about a hundred yards from the restaurant where Bruckner worked (from memory and on the same main road).   
The video appears to me to be disinformation, taking the eye right off where that orphanage is … and it took me several days to find the wretched place.   I think I looked at every villa in a 4 or five mile circle before I found it


Oh and a couple or so more things that have made me look more closely, but I haven't the time now and whilst the above thoughts plus others are quite pertinent they don't necessarily make the place what I am wondering if it is.

Just my wonderings, may or may not be right.

There might be some truth to that "Fehlinger, who was looking after troubled children as part of a German fostering programme, added: ‘He came into the house sometimes – for something to eat and to watch over the children."

"Nicole Fehlinger, 43, was last night revealed as the German drifter’s accomplice"

Yes, Rob. Subsidised German youths were sent to her at Foral. A girl with the name of Lina once escaped and Brückner was sent to find her, which he eventually did, with her in the presence of Ukrainians/Russians.

That sounds interesting. What is the source ?

So the orphanage was nowhere near Brueckner’s farmhouse or indeed Espiche ?
