Madeleine McCann case to be closed by London police after 11 years​

The 11-year investigation into the disappearance of British tot Madeleine McCann is set to end later this year, according to reports.

Operation Grange, the British taxpayer-funded probe launched four years after Madeleine’s 2007 disappearance from her family’s vacation rental in Portugal, will be shut down by London’s Metropolitan Police when funding runs out this fall, the Sun reported Saturday.
“There are currently no plans to take the inquiry further,” a source close to the matter told the outlet. “The end of the road for Operation Grange is now in sight. The team’s work is expected to be completed by autumn.”

The decision means there’s insufficient evidence to charge the prime suspect in Madeleine’s disappearance — convicted pedophile and rapist Christian Brueckner.
 

Madeleine McCann suspect formally declared​

Officials formally declared a convicted German sex offender as a suspect in the Madeleine McCann case.

Christian Brueckner was officially named as a suspect in the toddler’s 2007 disappearance but has not been charged with a crime, according to The Times.

Portuguese prosecutors issued a statement on Thursday: “As part of the investigation into the circumstances surrounding the disappearance of Madeleine McCann in 2007, a person was made a suspect on Wednesday.”

In 2020, German police named Brueckner as a person of interest for the first time in connection with the case.
 

Madeleine McCann suspect formally declared​


"Brueckner, referred to as Christian B in Germany due to the country’s strict privacy laws, is currently serving a jail sentence for raping a 72-year-old woman in the same resort where McCann went missing"

Good lord....
 

Madeleine McCann suspect claims he was having sex when toddler disappeared​

The main suspect in Madeleine McCann’s disappearance — exactly 15 years ago today — claims he was having sex in a camper van with a woman he said would provide him with an alibi.

Christian Brueckner, 44, was officially named as a suspect in the toddler’s 2007 disappearance last month but was not charged with a crime.

Now, the German suspect insists he wasn’t anywhere near the resort of Praia de Luz in Portugal’s Algarve region the night McCann disappeared, according to Sky News.

McCann’s heartbroken parents Kate and Gerry McCann have released a statement on May 3 in light of the 15th anniversary of her disappearance.
 

Investigators ‘sure’ that jailed rapist Christian Brueckner is Madeleine McCann’s ‘murderer’​

Investigators revealed on the 15th anniversary of Madeleine McCann’s disappearance that they have “new evidence” incriminating their official suspect — and they’re “sure” he is the UK girl’s “murderer.”

“The investigation is still going on, and I think we found some new facts, some new evidence. Not forensic evidence, but evidence,” Wolters told CMTV’s “Sabado.”

Asked about a tip the show received that the evidence was “something belonging to Madeleine” found in Brueckner’s camper van, Wolters said he could not go into the “details of the investigations.”
 
A German prosecutor probing the disappearance of Madeleine McCann said the British toddler may have been killed after being kidnapped and sold to a child-trafficking ring.

The revelation came this week when prosecutor Hans Christian Wolters was being interviewed on Portugal’s “Sabado” news program on the CMTV network, according to a report.

“So, you don’t believe that she was sold?” asked TV reporter Sandra Felgueiras during the interview.

“I am not allowed to speak about these details,” Wolters said, although he did not deny the scenario.

But when asked if Madeleine’s kidnap and sale to a pedophile ring was a possibility, he replied, “Maybe it’s a possibility,” according to the Daily Mail.

It’s not the first time that investigators probing the 15-year mystery into the disappearance of the child have raised the specter she’d been trafficked. Five years ago former Scotland yard officer Colin Sutton suggested that Madeleine was “a kidnap to order,” according to the newspaper.
 

Madeleine McCann’s parents agree to DNA-test woman claiming to be their daughter​

NYPICHPDPICT000007020339.jpg

Missing British child Madeleine McCann’s parents have agreed to a DNA test for a Polish woman who believes she’s their daughter — though even representatives for the young woman making the stunning claims admit that her background is “messy.”

Gerry and Kate McCann, whose 3-year-old daughter, Madeleine, disappeared on vacation in Portugal over 15 years ago, are following up on Julia Faustyna’s claims that she is the kidnapped toddler, a source told the Daily Beast this week.

Faustyna, 21, became an internet sensation this month after she started posting on social media under the handle @iammadeleinemccann. Earlier this week, she updated her Instagram bio with “Kate and Gerry McCann agreed for DNA test!”

In one of her first Instagram posts, Faustyna writes that she does not remember most of her early life except “holidays in a hot place where was [a] beach and White or very light couloured [sic] buildings with apartaments [sic].”

Many of Faustyna’s posts document apparent physical similarities between herself and Madeleine, including a distinctive brown smudge on both girls’ right irises.
 
Oooh the dark mark this girl will get on her soul if she's just some grifter. I find their noses and eye shapes to be very different. The smudge in the eye is interesting but it's probably not rare.

If she really truly believes this then I understand her asking for the test. But if she's just some nut or someone looking for money thats disgusting.

I can't imagine Maddie's parents not having their hopes up just a little but I feel like they're going to be disappointed.
 
We'll find out the answer pretty soon either way.

Who is Julia Faustyna?

Faustyna is a 21-year-old aspiring musician and model who has claimed on Instagram she is missing British girl Madeleine McCann.

She has spoken briefly about her personal life, saying she has a boyfriend who “wants to leave me because of this case” and that she grew up attending school sporadically.

Faustyna says can’t remember large chunks of her early childhood, isn’t sure of her age and has never seen her birth certificate.

“I don’t remember most of my childhood but my earliest memory is very strong and it’s about holidays in hot place where there was a beach and white or very light colored buildings with apartments,” she said.

“I don’t see my family in this memory.”

What evidence does she have that she’s Madeleine?

There is very little hard proof that Faustina is the missing British girl. The 21-year-old has claimed she first heard that she was Madeleine from her grandmother a few months ago.

On social media, she has documented apparent physical similarities between herself and Madeleine — including a distinct brown smudge on each girl’s right iris.

“I have similar eyes, shape of face, ears, lips, I had the gap between the teeths [as Madeleine],” she wrote in one post, with side-by-side photos of herself and the kidnapped child.

Faustyna also claimed she is suspicious of her parents in part because she’s never seen photos of her mom pregnant.

She has also shared a police sketch of a man whom witnesses saw carrying a child in the Portugal resort the night Madeleine disappeared, writing on Instagram, “I recognize this person..it looks very similar to my abbuser [sic],” she wrote.

Faustyna claimed she had been preyed on by a “German pedophile,” without elaborating.

Francisco Marco, a private detective linked to the Madeleine McCann case, has cast doubt on her claims, saying “it does not add up to me.”
 

Family of Julia Faustyna refuses DNA test that could rule out Madeleine McCann claim​

The family of a Polish woman who claims to be kidnapped toddler Madeleine McCann has reportedly refused to take a DNA test that could solve the mystery of whether she’s really the missing girl.

The mother of Julia Faustyna, 21, won’t hand over a genetic sample but insists she has documents proving Faustyna is her birth daughter, a private detective told the UK Sun.
 
heck if one of my kids had any doubts about who they are i would do it for them ... no prob i would dif know that it is my child that i gave birth to so what's the big deal??? but hey if they have madelein's mother dna they sure could tell if she is her daughter or not... but me thinks that maybe this girl and her mom are playing the "my five minute of fame" game... why else wouldn't her mom give dna sample??? if mom adopted this girl no shame in that at all but shame on her if she adopted her and kept it a secret from her....when parents don't tell their children about being adopted and keep it a secret, as we well know a secret isn't a secret as long as someone knows about it) when they find out they will forever question themselves about what else you lied to them about..... mine (the ones that were apoted when young) we told them as their very own bedtime story how special they are to have 2 moms and 2 dads that loves them so much.......
 
what's the harm with a DNA test if you're so sure she's not their daughter?





Put yourself in their shoes, they have a clearly delusional daughter who made millions, maybe even hundreds ridiculous claims in the past, so making these DNA tests would only reinforce these delusions.


For the context, as for Polish legal system :

-if she turned out to be adopted, no one would probably ever find out. Nothing in Polish legal proceedings is inherently open, and even though she is an adult and would know, she would probably get a gag order

-the coverage in foreign news is not even half decent, she was under psychiatric help for ages,

-Poles have tendency to identify missing children as their own, there has been a family of a kidnapped boy who said some soldier from USA is their son quite recently


There has been so many crazy stories about this case over the years, saying Maxwell of Victoria Beckham were seen with her, or that her parents killed her with strong sedative called PARACETAMOL lol xD
[automerge]1677658558[/automerge]
IMO, the case got so much attention from British authorities right away, it must have been a cover-up. There was that Pedo guy living really closes who "helped" the parents, or the parents killed her accidentally with a REAL sedative and got help from their important friends.

The parents got so much money, while being caught lying over and over again

I can't even imagine how adopted parents would have felt if their child would cut them off after finding out the truth.

I found out about similar situation lately.
My friend's parents told her like 15 years ago, on her wedding day that that she was adopted when she was 5. I found it hard to believe that she didn't have know that, I remember (or think I do remember) lot of stuff before that.


Anyway, I have known her family for my whole life, her mother worked as a janitor full time in two places, literally 18 hours a day, gave her everything, including best education she could afford.

Fast forward to now, her father had his leg amputated, and they live on last floor of 5 stories building, with no elevator. She is an owner of some kind of gold duck rehab center, bought her daughter a piano and a pony just recently, has a 300 square meters house (3200 Sq feet), but said that she won't let her parents come, even for a moment cause it "would be stressful" to her 2 children.


When I heard this story for the first time, the only thing I could think of was "No good deed goes unpunished"
 
wow, I can totally see why.

Hmm. Mom is acting a little off. She may not be Maddie but something is not right with these people. Maybe she's a different stolen kid.

Takes 2 seconds to give a DNA test or show a birth certificate to prove her daughter is lying or crazy. Why would the grandma tell her shes Maddie?

I think the whole bunch have screws loose.
Grandma: well, I guess not everyone likes living with a lie, and as ppl get older they sometimes have less restraint.

Polish mom and dad should be ready and happy to do DNA test if she's their biological daughter.

If all of this is true, wonder if Poland mom and dad are going to be in some shit. Such as, if they have been harboring a child without having legal custody for all these years, you know? And lying about being her biological parents?

If it's true, its still better than the other possible outcome.

But its all guessing until that DNA test comes back. Not a bad guess in any case, the pic comparison is like. what??!?!?1/1/1

i must be a very lucky woman as i have encouraged my kids to find their bios and yea saved pics of all of them growing up to share with their bios .. one out of all of them finally searched and did find out his bios (both dead :( ) but found out that he has a brother :).... i met him :) and well he is also part of my family i can't called him a son but he asked me if he could call me his aunt... i told him it was an honor to have him as a nephew.... and as he lives far from i can't wait for our "family" reunion this summer as i will also meet his family in person finally not only on video chats :)
 
There's a different missing child that it's suspected she could be, Livia Schepp. They intend to work it out, whatever it is / may be.


... online sleuths have claimed that Julia looks more like another missing child named Livia Schepp, a Swiss girl who disappeared in 2011 with her twin Alessia, aged six.

Now, Dr Fia Johansson, a private detective and psychic who is investigating Julia's claims says Julia is open to the idea she may indeed be another missing child and they are hoping to carry out a DNA test with her family.

Dr Johansson told The Sun: "Julia is very open to the idea that she may be Livia Schepp and we are investigating this possibility.

I'm getting tired of her.
This is literally 3rd missing child she claims to be.

A Polish organization which deals with people, made a statement that this girl came to them 1,5 months ago and said she's Acacia Bishop.

Her "mentor" is a clairvoyant and private detective lol.
Julia is an aspiring actor and singer.
She gained over a million followers on the since deleted social medias.


Official, unprofessional diagnosis - attention whore.
 
This part, I noticed and did not like either.

But if she is a stolen child I hope they get it figured out.
She is most likely not.

The police already said she is definitely not.
And if what she is saying was true, believe me, they would love to solve this case.

Her mother agreed for the DNA test two days ago.
The results, if the test has been made, will be available in few days.
That may explain why she deleted her socials, cause she knows that it can be proved she is a pathological liar, and since the drama got so much attention, no court will stop the family of showing the proof for it.


I know IMDB is trash,but they let anyone change the bio of an "actor?"


Dr. Fia Johansson is an entrepreneurial anomaly. The best-selling author, actress, film producer, celebrity medium, executive coach, and licensed private investigator and psychic detective with a Doctorate in Psychology and Human Behavior known as Persian Medium, has worked with tens of thousands of people around the globe to help them reach unbelievable heights. The very notion of helping people build incredible success isn't just a part of her brand -- she is the walking embodiment of it. She built her multi-million dollar empire after leaving her native country to Sweden, and then to the states where she works with celebrities, high-ranking executives and CEOs of Fortune 500 companies, doctors, lawyers, foreign dignitaries, and even US government officials.

Aside from her multi-million dollar entrepreneurial success, she's also an accomplished actress and film producer. She's starred in American Sicario (2021), directed by RJC, features the legendary Danny Trejo and was released by Saban Films. She's also featured in Don't Suck (2021), a comedy film featuring a large ensemble cast including Jamie Kennedy.

Dr. Johansson has spoken at the United Nations and has been featured in Forbes, the Wall Street Journal, CBS, NBC, ABC, and Fox News channels. Her written works include "Success Strategies" with legendary Jack Canfield, author of the Chicken Soup for the Soul series with 500 million copies in circulation around the world. She's also authored "Think Big" with Brian Tracy, in addition to "Re-Coding Your Brain for a Better Life: The Secret to Igniting Your Mind and Achieving Your Dreams."

I don't know about "anyone" but the creator of the IMBD entry certainly can.

The mooch, the perennial script writer and 3-year "guest" of my roommates back in L. A. did. Here's his IMBD bio-

Cupace20230305010649512.webp


If he's friends with Angelina and Leo, why wasn't he sneaking THEIR food out of THEIR fridge??

Not one word of that bio is true, and "Moujins" is misspelled.

But I give that bastard credit, he kept up this facade and a bizarre accent 24 hours a day for all the years I knew him, only breaking character once-

- It was the time I caught him pouring curry into my simmering pot of beef Stroganoff.
I was fed up with his weird nonsense, and I pointed out that Emmanuelle Beart and George Clooney couldn't possibly be his parents, his "good friend", the Dalai Lama, didn't live in San Diego, I'd never seen Liam Nissan following him around, and I doubted Michelle Obama called him for olive choosing advice.

He came unglued.
Remember Tom Cruise jumping up and down on Oprah's couch?
It was just like that, except hysterically, petulantly, and shrilly angry that I didn't "believe" him.
The strange "posh" accent disappeared, and the Chula Vista boy came out.

I'll admit, he had me fooled the first 3 days, but even then, I indulged him in this delusion for two and a half years.
Believe me, he was such a faux-pretentiousness, sneering asshole. You would have done the same thing except a lot sooner.

In Monaco's Grimaldi royal family, my ass.
He's still working those lies in order to live rent-free, job-free to this day.

I don't know why they call it "mini biography" then, it's like calling jerking off "sex".

Sounds like a Anna Sorokin or Andrew Cunanan wannabe.

Little IMDB hate
- I never open it before I watch the entire series, cause they list the number of episodes someone stars in, so it's pretty obvious that if someone who is a main character appears in less than the others, then it's most likely he died.

-I have noticed they started censoring some slightly "controversial " people z movies or shows. I used to have excellent memory, for example, I watched few episodes of Boston Public like 20 years ago, and when watching them all last year, I remembered so many irrelevant plot lines I was actually impressed (though I have to thank my mother's genes for that, I can barely remember few of my teachers from primary school, while my mother, her sister and brother could name almost all of them, and they are all around 60 and I'm 12).
Anyway, I when I see something and recognize some actors, they often are not listed in anything I have ever seen. So either IMDB doesn't list their more "artistic" or more weird stuff I definitely seen them in.
