There’s also a chance that the video he showed wasn’t just something saved on his phone but a link to a website he’d put it on. Would you keep that video on your phone?

Oh dear god no. I feel sick.

I really do not want to look at it again, so there might a word or two that are different, but it's basically the chat that has been posted here several times from other media, he doesn't really say kid, he said "I want to ... something little" which sounds even worse. And he says he will film it and document how he is torturing her. The other person says "cool". And in the end he says "yeah, but now do it and not just talk about it, hehe".

This is a very dangerous and sick sadistic psychopath. Disgusting.

Is this a literal translation?

I'm interested in the use of the word "finally". Would imply that he had never done it before and given this conversation took place after MM, it "could" be significant. I know the German language is more complex than English, they have about 20 different connotations for the word "The" so just wondering if this phrase of 'finally' may have another meaning in the context?

I'm a bit behind, so I don't know if somebody else replied to this, in this context it doesn't mean "finally" in the sense of "never done it before and it's finally time", it's in the sense of "I really really need it, I'm eager to do it" which doesn't say anything about doing it for the first time or just wanting it again. It even sounds more like it's not something he hasn't done before, he talks about it like other people when they say "I really want some coffee now".

Thanks for the explanation. That's why I asked, not all words are equivalent in translation so I wondered if it meant something more like that.

Yes, context is everything here.

The next line could be: -

Have you ever actually done it?
No. But I know people that have.

We have no idea where it went.

On Der Spiegel Panorma the exchange between CB and the other person is a Skype conversation.

Like you say context is everything.

Also a couple of sources saying CB wrote about MM on online chatroom - I wonder if this is part of the same transcript?

Have you got any media links to the sources of him writing about MM?

This "bar friend" must be an unsavoury character too IMO. If this is all true, you don't keep a massive secret like that for 10 years then spill the beans to some innocent guy and hope he's into that sort of thing and wont tell.

It's not been mentioned anywhere when/how this guy came forward with the information or who he is even. I suspect it wasn't out of concern though, more likely he is caught up in something too.

I can't stop thinking about the disappearance of German teenager Georgine Krüger. They finally after many years caught her killer, never found the body though. That wasn't too long ago but I follow so many cases that I don't remember every detail. But at some point they had a suspect and an undercover policeman befriended him and got him to trust him so much that he also (probably also drunk at a bar? Not sure about that anymore) confessed to him. The TV program "Aktenzeichen XY" was also involved in this, something like they reported on the case and while it was on TV or just a bit after it, the killer confessed to the undercover cop. And then they still had to investigate at least for a while as far as I remember. It was a neighbor living in an apartment building not far from hers, he somehow got her to go to his basement with him and that's where he raped and killed her.

Madeleine McCann abduction 'written about by German paedophile in chat room'


Madeleine McCann suspect Christian Brückner bragged about her on internet chatroom years after kidnap, say cops

I've just found these, so may support my theory that he couldn't keep what he'd done to himself -

Up-thread<<< there were references to two 'sightings' of MM, in the weeks following her disappearance, with a man and a camper-van:
1. In Alcossebre, Spain, at The Tunnels restaurant, 'weeks' after the disappearance of MM.
This sighting is usually mentioned in the 'cluster' that includes: The Belgian cafe, where the waitress saved the drinking cup and straw for DNA collection (no connection identified); and the Morocco sightings that were hotly followed and turned out to be a blonde girl with her Moroccan family (no connection identified). I cannot see much more detail or follow-up reported from the Alcossebre sighting.

2. In Peneda-Geres, N Portugal.

I seem to remember that one of these sightings was disregarded but am unsure which one. Would be grateful if anyone could advise..

That 'orphanage' in Foral, Portugal seems highly dubious. Would expect more information to come from here.

I am thinking of voice-recognition. Voice is as idiosyncratic as a fingerprint; you may learn to modulate, stimulate or impersonate but, ultimately, voice is highly distinct, remarkable and personal. I wonder if this has a part to play in victim-recall?

Rapist:
He 'knew' the 72 year old rape victim, and her cat.
He 'knew' Hazel Bevan, rape victim, and called her by her name.

CB:
His eyes appear to be slightly 'off-centre'.

Just thoughts and observation here; properly got under my skin. :(

The Irish rape victim the media reported about today Hazel Behan noted that he took his shoes off AND set up a video camera. I wonder at the time whether he'd have used his cell phone to record - were cell phones even that good in 2007 for video? I don't recall which phone I was on at the time or what the quality was like....

What if - after 2013 and before 2017 - his close knit community of friendly neighbourhood pedophiles led him to someone who really was linked to the case? What if that’s how he got the detail to later boast about the crime?

Yes, like he said he knows about what happened to MM - but has inadvertently implicated himself! May well be innocent of MM but still a dangerous individual.

Seeing this article, I wanted to see the location in relation to the hotel.

"A Spanish investigator has discovered and delivered to the police a satellite photo that could be crucial in the investigation of Christian Brückner, the 43-year-old suspect in Maddie McCann's disappearance case . The photo probably shows the yellow-white VW Westfalia T3 camper from Brückner at a house in Praia da Luz in which he lived from 1999 to 2006.

The photo dates from a few days after Maddie's disappearance in May 2007, so it seems that Brückner suddenly moved back to his former home. It is possible that Brückner took the girl there because he knew the area well. In addition, the house is located just a few miles from the Ocean Club, the place where Maddie disappeared."

The white box is the location of what appears to be the van.

In a pinch or maybe by choice , some pervs might just be happy to record the audio.
Can almost imagine CB or whomever, walking around with earbuds listening to "music" and not raising an eyebrow.
speculation, imo.

This was discussed earlier, it doesn’t look like the same vehicle unfortunately

That's creepy - who would of think of that besides people like the suspect, and people like us who've been learning about these personalities for many years.

Thanks! I've had to skip a few pages to keep up. Has that vehicle been identified? Does it seem too wide to be the suspect's van?

I’ll try and find the page where it was discussed, but yeah the shape is wrong. Also the vehicle appears to have been sat there for an extended time as there are no track marks in the overgrowth surrounding it

It was doable but the quality wasn't great, very grainy.
