Human trafficking just recently surpassed weapons trafficking and is rapidly going to surpass drug trafficking as the #1 Global money maker.

There has never been more slaves.

I watched a movie on Netflix where they kidnapped girls, forced them into sex..

Told them after 500 guys they would be set free..

Rather than setting them free, they harvested their body parts. 😖

German detectives say the noose is tightening around the neck of the pedophile suspected of kidnapping British toddler Madeleine McCann.

And they have new bombshell evidence expected to strengthen the case against the prime suspect, Christian Brueckner, in Maddie’s May 3, 2007 disappearance from a Portuguese resort.


Cops now say they expect to charge Brueckner in the little girl’s kidnapping and murder by the end of the summer.

“We have gathered new evidence that adds further to the case we are building against our main suspect,” Hans Christian Wolters, the German prosecutor leading the probe, told the U.K. Sun.

“I’m afraid I cannot tell you what it is but it strengthens our work. We are still building the case and at some time in the future we shall share the details with the suspect and his lawyer — but now is not the time.”

He added: “I cannot disclose the type of evidence we have been given, it is not forensic, I can tell you that, but it is new circumstantial evidence which all adds to the working theory that he is the man responsible.”

Brueckner, 44, is currently serving a jail sentence in Germany for rape and drug convictions.

He has a long history of child sex offences.

At the time of Maddie’s disappearance, he was living in a trailer in the Praia da Luz area of Portugal.

For more than a decade, the investigation went cold until Brueckner emerged as a strong suspect in 2020.

Wolters added: “I am optimistic that we will solve this case.”


An international task force consisting of British, German and Portuguese cops have planned a reconstruction of the crime at the resort that will include an original witness.

The German prosecutor said investigators have uncovered “a lot of evidence” since the spotlight landed on Brueckner. Cops believe he is guilty, but Wolters said he “forbidden” from offering more details.

Christian Brueckner, 44, is now caged in solitary confinement in Oldenburg prison near Bremen in the country’s northwest.


According to the Daily Mirror, the convicted pedophile is watched by CCTV cameras 24/7 with doors and windows made from special reinforced safety glass so jailbirds are never out of sight. Walls that are 22-feet tall make escape all but impossible.


German newspapers report that moving the pervert may be the result of a scuffle with guards at the previous prison where he was held. He reportedly fell and broke his ribs in the brawl.

Jail sources told Bild that Brueckner was also unhappy at his previous prison because he was constantly bullied by fellow jailbirds who despised him for his links to the notorious McCann case.

Brueckner fled to Portugal in 1995 after completing a two-year prison sentence for sexually abusing a child in Germany.

He is now serving a seven-year sentence for raping a 72-year-old American woman in Praia da Luz in 2005. He was arrested 12 years later.

For years, the McCann case was cold. There were periodic tips and a litany of theories but for detectives, they all ended in dead ends.

That is until last year when German prosecutors named Brueckner as the prime suspect in Madeleine’s disappearance. Detectives believe Brueckner murdered the child.

He has denied any involvement and slammed the probe as “scandalous.”


Brueckner had been caged at the Wolfenbüttel prison — where the Nazis executed several hundred Second World War inmates by hanging or decapitating them.

Meanwhile, a new documentary argues that Brueckner had no connection to Maddie’s case. The three-part series argues that a pair of Russians were behind the heinous crime.

Is Maddie McCann kidnapping saga finally near the end?

She would be almost 19 years old now.


What Madeleine McCann’s life would have been like today is anyone’s guess. The smiling little girl never had the opportunity to fill in the years.

Tuesday marks the 15th anniversary of Maddie’s shocking disappearance from a resort in Portugal. She was never to be seen again.

And now, all these years later, cops say they believe they know who is responsible. Any charges, of course, will need to be tested in court.

“I can’t imagine what they are experiencing, probably pain without measure,” Chief Insp. Olegario Sousa told reporters in 2007, referring to Maddie’s parents, Kate and Gerry McCann.

THE SCENE

Like a lot of British families, the McCanns found the Algarve coast in Portugal a cheap and cheerful vacation. On the evening of May 3, 2007, Madeleine McCann, three years old at the time, was tucked into bed with her two-year-old twin siblings.


Her parents were having dinner in a resto with friends just 55 metres away. Every half hour they took turns checking on their children, then would return to their dinner.

At 10 p.m., Kate McCann returned to the ground-floor unit and discovered that Maddie was missing.

THE CRIME

The investigation stumbled out of the gate. Initially, local detectives believed that Maddie had accidentally died in the vacation villa and that her parents covered it up. Five months later, the heartbroken couple was named as suspects in the child’s disappearance.

“Despite there being so much we wish to say, we are unable to do so, except to say this: we have played no part in the disappearance of our lovely daughter Madeleine,” Gerry McCann told reporters when he arrived back in the United Kingdom.


But for a time, local police and the British press zeroed in on the McCanns, literally breaking them.

“I’ve been a detective at the most senior level for 30 years and have never seen such a witch-hunt, or one based on such flimsy evidence,” former Metropolitan Police Chief Lord Stevens said.

Scotland Yard took up the case in 2011. British detectives never believed the McCanns had anything to do with Maddie’s disappearance — and suspected murder.

Investigators believed that a pedophile had been watching the little girl and the McCanns waiting for an opportunity to pounce. Two years later, cops released e-fit images of suspicious men they hoped to find.

One was of a man spotted carrying a child to the beach on the night Maddie disappeared. Portuguese police were now shamed into reopening the probe.

RED HERRINGS

The Maddie McCann case was the “most reported kidnapping in history,” according to the Daily Telegraph in London. This led to a tsunami of rumour, innuendo and conspiracy theories.

One was that the little girl had been kidnapped by an international pedophile sex ring, another was that she had wandered out of her unit and fell down a hole. Each theory was reported breathlessly by the U.K. tabloids.

Detectives also looked at a wide array of pedos across Europe whose M.O. matched the Maddie case, and by 2015, the case was considered a homicide investigation.

THE SUSPECT

The McCanns, the Tapas Seven (their friends), and scores of other possible suspects had been eyed during the endless probe but were all cleared without reservation.


By the summer of 2020, years of tears, heartache, and agony had dragged by. Missed birthdays, graduations, Christmases, and other holidays.

But on June 20, German detectives and prosecutors announced they had a prime suspect in the disappearance — and murder — of wee Maddie McCann.

He is a German drifter, convicted rapist, and pedophile, named Christian Brueckner, currently serving a sentence for raping an American tourist.

Brueckner, 44, matched the e-fit perfectly, was living nearby at the time of Maddie’s disappearance and phone records put him at the resort at the time she vanished.

And then there is the separate investigation in his native country: He is a suspect in the disappearance of a German girl, Inga Gehricke, who was just five when she vanished in May 2015, along with other missing children in France and Belgium.

Former friend Michael Tatschi told the Daily Mail Brueckner boasted about “selling kids” and suggested Maddie had been sold into sexual slavery.

“He was always bragging about money and making money. He even talked about selling kids, maybe to Morocco,” Tatschi said. “I think he probably sold Maddie to someone. Maybe a sex ring. I was living with him at the time. He was my best friend. I know he did it.”

He has now officially been named a suspect in Maddie’s case. This is typically a precursor to charges.

Until then, he is rotting in a German prison.

Cops link email account to convicted pedo

Author of the article:Brad Hunter
Published Jun 06, 2024 • Last updated 3 days ago • 2 minute read

German detectives say they’ve discovered an email account linking the prime suspect in the disappearance and presumed murder of Maddie McCann to the tragic Brit tot.


According to cops, the new evidence conclusively put convicted pedophile Christian Brueckner in the frame.

The little girl vanished in 2007 while on holiday with her parents and siblings in Portugal.


Brueckner — currently caged in Germany for the rape of an elderly American woman — now faces the strongest evidence yet of his alleged involvement in Maddie’s disappearance, the Daily Mail reports.

Still, detectives were keeping their cards close to their chests.

Det. Titus Stampa didn’t reveal the emails or offer any details about what they contained at a recent German court hearing. He testified he could not say more because of the evidence’s connection to the killing of three-year-old Maddie.


While Brueckner is the prime suspect, he has yet to be charged and has denied any involvement.


“An external hard drive is also belonging to the killing case — and I am not allowed to talk about it,” Stampa said in court.

The Teutonic detective did say that investigators discovered Brueckner’s second email account that he used to share twisted photos and videos of child abuse. Some of the children were only three or four years old, the Mail reported.


Brueckner — a person of interest in the disappearances and murders of children across Europe — reportedly deleted the emails in early 2007 before Maddie’s May 3, 2007 disappearance.

“I can remember that things were ‘massively’ deleted in the inbox,” Stampa said. “There was nothing in there from January 2007.”

But in one of the missives, Stampa testified that Brueckner outlined a twisted fantasy where he kidnapped and raped a mother and her five-year-old daughter.


“It was about violence and brutality and them being abused sexually,” Stampa said.


The Maddie McCann investigation went cold a little more than a year after her kidnapping. In 2020, Brueckner who lived near the holiday complex where the McCann family was staying, was named the primary suspect.

Brueckner is currently on trial for the alleged rape or sexual abuse of three different women between 2000 and 2006, the Mail said.

Earlier in the trial, one of Brueckner’s former pals testified he watched in horror as the creep sexually assaulted a teen girl in his “rape lair.” Brueckner allegedly would tie up his victims and film the attacks.

“That’s why I think he may have something to do with Maddie,” the friend, Manfred Seyferth, told the court. “He broke in and saw her and because he likes young girls — he’s got lots of convictions — he took her.”

Cops say Brueckner regularly masturbated in front of kids in Portugal.
