The 3 data of the Madeleine McCann case that impacted the world
- The fateful day. The British girl Madeleine McCann disappeared on May 3, 2007 while vacationing with her family in a tourist resort in Praia da Luz, Portugal. The parents of the little girl, Kate and Gerry McCann, went to dinner at a nearby place and left Madeleine and their younger brothers in the department they had rented. Upon returning, they noticed that Madeleine had disappeared. The investigation was subject to different hypotheses and even the girl’s parents were declared suspicious. Likewise, numerous clues were collected from alleged eyewitnesses that claim to have seen Madeleine in various parts of the world. However, the little girl was never found.
- The controversial book on the case. The former police inspector who was in charge of the case, the Portuguese Gonçalo Amaral, wrote the book Maddie, the truth about the lie, and generated a strong controversy that resulted in a brake in the publication of his work in Portugal. In his text, Amaral assures that Madeleine’s parents were directly responsible for their disappearance, while they assured, in 2010, that the book was nothing more than an obstacle in the search for their daughter.
- The case today. The documentary focuses on the most recent (and unique) suspicious to date: Christian Brueckner. After the finding of objects by the authorities that indicate a possible link with other criminal activities, this new phase of investigation points to the man who, at the time of Madeleine’s disappearance, lived in the Praia area of Luz. Brueckner is serving a sentence for another case and could be released this month.
