A former associate of the main suspect in the Madeleine McCann case, Christian Brueckner, is confident that Brueckner was involved in the abduction. Helge Busching, in an exclusive TV interview, revealed that Brueckner hinted at his role in the disappearance of the 3-year-old girl back in 2007.
Busching, who had a criminal history and a business relationship with Brueckner, shared details of their association, including theft and drug-related activities. Despite not being close friends, Busching emphasized his certainty about Brueckner’s dangerous nature and his alleged involvement in the McCann case.
He recounted a conversation with Brueckner at a Spanish festival shortly after Madeleine vanished, where Brueckner made a chilling statement about the girl not screaming. Busching’s suspicions grew further when he discovered disturbing videos at Brueckner’s residence, indicating violent acts against females, including a young German girl.
Busching expressed disappointment with the impending release of Brueckner from prison and his lack of faith in the German justice system. He called for British authorities to lead the investigation into Madeleine’s disappearance, citing his distrust of German prosecutors. Despite Brueckner’s denial of any wrongdoing, Busching remains firm in his belief that Brueckner is lying and must be held accountable.
