Update on Madeleine McCann case as police ‘discover major new evidence’

It's well documented - even Netflix released a series based on the case back in 2019 - that McCann was almost certainly taken from her family's Portuguese holiday apartment in the May of 2007, and now according to The Sun, new evidence has emerged suggesting long-time suspect Christian Brueckner killed her.

There has been a major update in the case of Madeleine McCann after German police discovered horrifying evidence that suggests she is dead.

The evidence found will play a huge part in deciding that, as police discovered some horrifying things on a search of his so-called 'lair' in Germany.

A hard drive of images previously found on the suspect's computer could also be key in bringing Brueckner down, as they show him at a point of interest for those who have been investigating the case for the best part of two decades.

German investigators have kept the exact content of the hard drive secret, but it is believed to contain evidence that McCann is dead, and some of it is expected to be revealed for the first time tonight in a documentary, according to the Mirror.

Brueckner also reportedly had a crash at the festival, and cops tracked down his insurance claim from then, which proves for the first time that he was there in April 2008.

The hard drive also included disturbing stories written by Brueckner in which he voiced his obsession with snatching children, with the written pieces including instances where he drugs a mum and her daughter outside a pre-school, while he also abuses a young blonde girl aged four.
