15 Years After Maddie McCann Disappears, Suspect Named

German national Christian Brueckner has been named a suspect in the 2007 disappearance of British toddler Madeleine McCann.

Brueckner, 44, is currently serving a 7-year prison sentence in Germany for raping an elderly American woman in 2005.  Three-year-old Maddie went missing from a vacation rental while on a family holiday in Portugal.

The Portuguese Public Ministry, while not specifically naming Brueckner, said that evidence had been uncovered that put a suspect named "Christian B" in Praia da Luz at the time of Maddie's disappearance.

A Portuguese prosecutor in Braunschweig, Germany, has been pursuing a case against Brueckner since June 2020.
