RSBMI was of the opinion that the police would have been prioritising the search for a missing child as the logical reason behind their interest in CB.
What an intriguing thought that in Luz you say the priority might have been debt collecting. Thing is though that nothing is known of why CB was on the police radar to begin with or why he was inexplicably dropped off it. To the extent that future investigators weren't passed his file.
The Porto Policia Judiciaria whose work led to the reopening of MM's case seemed to be in ignorance of CB going after a different suspect. Who to coin a phrase was perfect because he was dead.
'KIDNAP FORM OF REVENGE'
In 2013, Portuguese newspaper Correio da Manha said: "The motives that could have caused the ex-employee to kidnap the youngster are still being investigated.
“The suspect could have taken the child to commit a sex crime before killing her.
“But he could also have committed the kidnap as a form of retaliation against the Ocean Club."
Police had lost crucial time to interview Monteiro because he was missing from a list of current and former Ocean Club employees that was given to police during the first investigation.
But having been identified as a suspect following suspicious phone records, detectives were set to question Monteiro.

There's no confirmation of a video/photo. It is just a theory at the moment, based primarily on comments made by the Prosecutor, HCW. He has stated they have concrete "material" evidence of MM's death despite not knowing where her body is. The suspect is known to have recorded previous other victims as part of his MO. There's been a number of his devices and memory cards discovered hidden/buried during various raids which we are yet to find out the full content of. HCW has refused to divulge exactly what the material evidence is but has stated it "might be" videos/photos. When he's been pressed further during interviews on whether they have images of MM, he states he "cannot confirm or deny" it. He has denied the existence of other evidence when asked though such as forensic evidence of death, pyjama fibres, a photo that specifically shows MM and the suspect "together", knowing the identity of the mystery caller etc. Which is why some see it as suspicious that he won't comment on the existence of a photo/video of MM.
One thing is certain. The McCanns' Christmas message this year was the first where they seemed to acknowledge, publicly, for the first time that they will never see their daughter alive again
Clouding the picture slightly is that, as I understand it, the German definition of the word 'concrete' is not quite the same as the English.
How does funding for lawyers in Germany work?Not sure if it has been posted before, but litte CB went on a hunger strike. He also has a new (additional?) lawyer, located in Kiel as well.

I really would like to know, if Schwenn and Fülscher may have thrown the towel or had been exchanged by CB himself. Hard to think, that all three of the known lawyers are working pro bono. The 2020 "famous case momentum" should have faded a long time ago IMO....

Would JS and FF want to give up on the case if there was still a strong chance he was going to trial? I imagine they have invested significant time in the case and if they left before trial they wouldn’t get the publicity they would if they defended him in court.Not sure if it has been posted before, but litte CB went on a hunger strike.

The important word in your question is ‘supposed’. There is no direct comment from the prosecutor stating that he has photographic evidence. Neither has he directly denied having a photo. As you can see from @Malleux’s post there is an opinion that a photo exists. I think that if it did, CB would likely have been charged.
I don't think there is any great rush to lay charges in the MM case.
its possible photo evidence....nothing suposed about it. HCW has made several references to the possibility
Give it up, Dave. They don't have evidence like that. If they did, as Denis says, they'd have charged him long ago and we'd probably have had the trial already. The one thing prosecutors don't want to do is let circumstantial cases linger on indefinitely - when you're so reliant on witnesses you want to get them into court asap. If you don't witnesses can disappear, or change their minds about giving evidence, or change their story, or become ill and unable to give evidence, or die. Naturally prosecutors don't want to risk this, and won't - unless they have no choice.
