An explosive new Madeleine McCann documentary has revealed new bombshell evidence that may prove that Christian Brueckner is the prime suspect in the case. The new film hones in on circumstantial evidence found in his lair that points directly to why German national Brueckner is the prime suspect in the case that has gripped the world since Madeleine vanished in 2007.
Clues have been few and far between since little Madeleine disappeared during a family holiday to the Algarve some 18 years ago. The investigation uncovers the disturbing finds at Brueckner’s abandoned factory as well as his sickening obsession with young children.

‘Madeleine McCann: Inside the Secret Evidence’ digs into circumstantial evidence, including images of children’s swimming costume and toddler toys that were found at his property. The Sun’s documentary also claims police found a mask, guns as well as sickening child kidnap stories written by Brueckner.

“A very small girl enters the room,” he said. “She’s definitely not older than five. Blonde, long hair tied in pigtails bounces cheekily back and forth as she comes towards me. I feel like I’m in paradise right now.”

In one harrowing tale reportedly penned by Brueckner described using chemical ether on a mum and toddler outside a preschool. The documentary also revealed the existence of an 80gb hard drive that could have played a key role in persuading investigators to go after Brueckner.
The hard drive also put Brueckner at the heart of the search location in Arades Dam, in Portugal. The documentary also revealed Brueckner also wanted to “capture something small and use it for days.”

He also threatened it would not matter if “evidence is destroyed afterwards” before adding: “I’ll make a lot of films…hehe.” Police files show the biggest leap forward in the understanding of the case since German police announced in 2020 that Brueckner was the chief suspect in the Madeleine McCann case.

It also featured an interview with Irish holiday rep Hazel Behan, 41, who Brueckner was cleared of having raped in 2005 during a trial in Germany last year. The documentary uncovered details that outlines investigators’ fears that Brueckner could end up taking what he knows with him to the grave without any closure being given.
The most recent search for any clues related to the search for Madeleine McCann lasted three days in Praia da Luz, last week. It happened close to where Brueckner is known to have had camped.
German investigators were aided by Portuguese police and were seen using diggers and radar to search into the ground. Despite this “noting of consequence” was discovered.
