Madeleine McCann 'smoking gun' may have been found by cops, says expert
Cops probing Madeleine's disappearance may have uncovered key new evidence linking prime suspect Christian Brueckner to the missing toddler, says expert. Police investigating the disappearance of Madeleine McCann may have uncovered a major breakthrough after 'new evidence' reportedly linked the missing toddler to prime suspect Christian Brueckner. Authorities in Germany and Portugal spent three days last week scouring a 120-acre patch of land in Lagos, just 30 miles from Praia da Luz where three-year-old Madeleine vanished in May 2007. According to local reports, 'several objects' — including clothing, debris and bones — were recovered during the intense search of scrubland, derelict buildings and a crumbling farmhouse. A source told the Berlin Morning Post: "Several objects have apparently been discovered, which are now being examined in more detail by the police in the laboratory. As Portuguese media report, clothing debris and bones were found, among other things.' The search, carried out at the request of German federal police, focused on gathering fresh evidence that could finally implicate Brueckner, a convicted sex offender long suspected in the case. Disturbing new details about Brueckner have come to light in a recent documentary, including horrifying finds in his lair — such as images of children in swimming costumes, toddler toys, and sick kidnapping fantasies he had written out, including one where he uses chemical ether to abduct a mother and child. The documentary also reveals a harrowing quote allegedly made by Brueckner while discussing Madeleine with an associate: 'She did not scream.' In another chilling passage, he reportedly writes: 'A very small girl enters the room. She's definitely not older than five.' An 80GB hard drive and a laptop key were also uncovered — both allegedly linking Brueckner to the Arade Dam area where last week's search took place. Join the Daily Record WhatsApp community!

One section of the documentary claims the suspect had a twisted ambition to 'capture something small and use it for days.' Experts believe these developments could prove pivotal. Professor Robert Green, Forensic Science expert at the University of Kent, told The Mirror: 'The authorities' decision to carry out a new search, it is likely influenced by the accumulation of new evidence and information that may have come to light, particularly from recent documentaries and interviews. 'As for the hard drive, if it contains incriminating evidence, it may indeed serve as a 'smoking gun' for investigators. Digital evidence often provides invaluable insights into a suspect's activities, intentions, and potential connections to criminal cases. Should the contents be substantial, they could significantly strengthen the case against Brueckner. 'The rationale behind the renewed search could stem from the ongoing pursuit of justice in the Madeleine McCann case and the hope that any additional evidence could lead to a breakthrough.' The new findings have reignited global interest in the case, as Madeleine's family and investigators continue their 18-year fight for justice.

Shamed Huw Edwards' divorce delayed as he's forced to slash £750k from asking price for his family home
Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) SHAMED BBC anchorman Huw Edwards' divorce has been delayed as the asking price for his family home was slashed by £750,000. His TV producer wife Vicky Flind filed for divorce days after he admitted possessing indecent images of children. Their six-bedroom detached mansion in Dulwich, south London was then put up for sale for £4.75 million last October following the couple's split. 3 Edwards' wife Vicky Flind filed for divorce days after his child sex image confession Credit: �nobledraperpictures 3 Shamed BBC presenter Huw Edwards' divorce has stalled after £750k was knocked off the asking price of his family home Credit: Alamy 3 The couple's six-bed Dulwich mansion was listed for £4.75m last October after their split Credit: Pedder/TNG But no buyers have come forward to take on the plush property amid fears it has been blighted by its links to the telly paedo. The property has attracted so little interest that online site Zoopla is still urging 'be one of the first to view' - nine months after it went on sale. Agents reduced its asking price by £250,000 in February - but a further £500,000 has now been hacked off as the couple attempt to accelerate their split. The couple bought the six-bedroom home for £1.85 million in 2006 and it is mortgage-free - and 63-year-old Edwards expected to rake in more than £2 million from his share of the sale. But the plummeting price means the presenter - who earned £475,000 at the peak of his career - has already lost more than £300,000 he hoped to rake in last year. He did not pay back £200,000 in wages funded by licence payers which he earned between his arrest over child sex charges and his resignation. Court records obtained by The Sun confirm that no decree absolute had been granted to end his 32-year marriage up to June 5. It was unclear whether property sale problems were affecting the divorce - which had been expected to have been finalised by February this year Edwards, 62, pleaded guilty in September to three charges of making indecent images of children and was given a six-month suspended jail term. EXC Shamed Huw Edwards seen for first time since paedo conviction as we reveal he hasn't returned any of his £200k BBC wage The material included abuse videos of children as young as seven, which he received via WhatsApp between December 2020 and August 2021. Ms Flind initially stood by her husband but asked him to leave the family home after his arrest. He has since been living between a flat in Wandsworth, south-west London, and a property in Carmarthen, Wales. His Dulwich home is described by the estate agent as 'a substantial detached mid-century family house' with 'exceptionally spacious living accommodation'. It features three bathrooms, three reception rooms, a library, an office, a double-length garage, and mature gardens with decking. The agency said it sits 'on one of Dulwich's most desirable residential roads'. The couple, who married in 1993, have three sons and two daughters.
