The main suspect will soon be released in the Maddie case. A 2008 sentence sheds a new light on the shattering missing person in Europe. Now the man who once knew Christian B. knew like no other. He is convinced that the 49-year-old knows what happened to Maddie.
Madeleine disappeared from a holiday apartment in Praia da Luz, Portugal in May 2007. The three -year -old daughter of Kate and Gerry McCann became a symbol of a global search for missing. A year after the disappearance of Madeleine McCann, Christian B. – then 32 years old – his old friend Helge Busching met at a festival in Spain. What happened now, the British told “Daily Mail”. Busching is still checking. In a private conversation, B. suddenly said, “It’s strange that she didn’t scream.”
Busching. He is convinced: B. spoke about Maddie. The German sex offender, already known to the police at the time, had behaved strangely. His voice, his gestures – clearly for Busching. Moreover, B. lived nearby at the time. Because his mobile phone was logged in around the crime scene at the time of the crime, the police want to be able to prove this.
Friend is launching researchers
In the same year, Busching took all his courage and contacted Dave Edgar -the former police officer, who then worked as a private researcher on behalf of the McCann family. In a confidential conversation, he described what he first heard Christian B. and called them in name. It was explosive for Edgar – especially because the name until then was not a role in the study. It should be the first direct connection between the convicted sex offender and the MCCANN case.
However, official researchers only report to Busching in 2017. Almost a decade has passed since his notification from 2008 – but Christian B. has since been convicted of serious sexual offenses. The British police therefore resume the old statements. Because Busching now lives in Greece, researchers of the special unit “Operation Grange” travel there personally.
Tagae’s interrogation by Scotland Yard
Busching is interviewed for three days in a hotel outside Athens. The researchers have even checked the room for bugs and listening technology – so much worries that information could seep early. Because some Busching Reports fits the image that is the result of B ..
Christian B. (49) is currently a seven -year prison sentence in Germany. In 2019 he was convicted of rape an American in Praia da Luz. That had disappeared for Maddies for two years – and in the same place.
But B. could come back in September – if he paid 1500 euros to fines. Otherwise it will remain behind bars by 2027. The researchers work under high pressure to protect tangible evidence in advance. The clock ticks. Until Friday the researchers in Portugal comb the area again after tracks – around the former accommodation of the suspect, in old wells and deserted houses. Grab dogs, kick, hope.
In any case, Helge Busching is certainly with his former friend: “He is bad, this man is dangerous and should never go out again.”
