Translated from 18:25 until the end of the program.
(They show a document of the police report of the April 2007 Salema beach incident. Print is small.)
(Redacted) until the 11-04-2007, which denounces an individual of white race, dark-skinned, with several moles all over his body, blond hair, short, no beard, little hair, with about 1.80 / 1.85 m in height, With 20/30 Years of Age, With 4 Teeth Upwards Outward, for the practice of the following facts:
Villa do Bispo, April 9, 2007
(Name redacted)
The Criminal Police Agency
Disguised couple: The upper jaw teeth were more prominent. The lower ear jaw is more retracted, more inward. In profile. In profile, it was more noticeable.
When he opened his mouth, the teeth were incorrect.
Nicole told us that she had come to Lisbon accompany your companion to the airport because he was going to Germany to have his teeth treated. That in Portugal this treatment was more expensive and that it was preferable to treat them in Germany.
SF: And nowadays there is no doubt that the individual in question was Christian Brueckner...
Disguised couple: From the pictures I've seen, it matches the person we found. But still she introduced him as Matthias (last name redacted.)
The owner of the yachts... She introduced us as if he were the owner of the yachts in Vilamoura. From the pictures I've seen, it matches the person we found.
SF: He was the only one going to travel, was that it?
Disguised couple: Yes, yes.
SF: Where?
Disguised couple: I heard about Wurzburg; I remember perfectly.
(A document is shown with some sentences. I captured what I could.)
"Unknown(s), male, aged between () years old, 1.80 m tall, with white complexion skin, untrimmed beard, hair ? wearing light gray pants, he also had a clear backpack,
standing the same..."
The following facts:
The complainant now clarifies that he has his residence with the address above....
to that, a monetary signal has already been received, for the reservation of said housing...
in the amount of 100,000.00 Euros...
Declares that to the Office of Ms. Lawyer Angela Ventosa, it was only the complainant and the her daughter, however on the return trip to Albufeira, the complainant ended up showing Mrs. Nicole where she had placed the envelopes, having been astonished to learn that 100,000.00 Euros fit inside that little suitcase.
He later quoted Mr. (?) Nicole what would her future be, quoting out loud and in English "If I sell the house, how will it be?", and the complainant replied that she would continue to work for the complainant at Mrs. Da Rocha, near Armacao de Pera.
Does she mention that when she got home she put the suitcase, containing the envelopes, in yours? your dresser, covering it with 3 packs of baby wipes.
Disguised couple: When we were in the car she got a call from what we understand, she was spoken in German, of course... the word "naturlich" which means with certainty, naturally.
(A document is shown that says "AUTO DE INTERROGATORIO NICOLE FEHLINGER")
During the trip, he received a call from a German friend of his, Christian Brueckner, on the number 915 078 040 and who is currently in Germany and when he is in Portugal he is transported and resides in a motorhome. He does not know who may be the author of the facts.
SF: Are you fully convinced that Nicole Fehlinger orchestrated your heist?
Disguised couple: Of course... we don't have the slightest doubt. Yes, yes... it was her for sure!
(Another document is shown)
"I think archival. In the present case (redacted) he filed a complaint against unknown persons, saying, in summary:
- Nicole always behaved suspiciously that day, so she could have been involved in the theft, although she didn't do it directly.
The facts reported are likely to be part of the crime of aggravated theft.
HCW: We don't know whose number it was. And we also don't know what the relationship between people is. We are looking for a witness to know the content of the conversation.
SF to FF: Can you tell me if he made a burglary 6 months after Madeleine was vanished with Nicole Fehlinger where they stolen 100 thousand euros from a house in Albufeira?
FF: About that I can't say anything.
SF: Can you also say he used to make burglaries?
FF: It doesn't come as a surprise to me.
SF: You wouldn't be surprised as a lawyer uh if he is convicted for these burglaries.
FF: I wouldn't be too scared.
A man is asking MS: From what you know of Brueckner, how did he get the money?
Man: Robberies; robbers in Portugal.
SF: Do you suspect that this number that called Brueckner, could have been used by Nicole (last name redacted)?
HCW: I can only say that we naturally investigated all the people who were known to us, to see if they had anything to do with this.
And this lady was an ex-girlfriend of Christian Brueckner. It is indicated as a witness. But we have no reason to think that she is connected with it.
SF: So far Nicole (last name redacted) is not a suspect for you.
HCW: No, no... we're just investigating Christian Brueckner, no one else.
SF: So still now for you Christian B. acted alone?
HCW: As far as we know, yes.
Man asks MS: Are you sure this girlfriend was getting troublesome girls back then?
MS: That's what he told me. That his girlfriend had some troublesome girls.
Man asks MS: Did you already know about this girlfriend before Madeleine McCann disappeared?
MS: Yes, I did, before the Madeleine McCann case.
SF to some man: Do you recognize this woman like the woman that was here in 2007?
Some Man: Yes. (He points to NF's hair in a picture showing NF.)
(SF mentions Saxony-Anhalt, shows picture of missing little Inga G., mentions the Kiosk, and mentions Scotland Yard.)
(A document is shown with print too small to read.)
Some highlighted excerpts are shown in bigger print:
"There were 391 photographs and 68 videos, depicting sexual abuse of girls and boys under the age of 14 by adults in a flagrant (pornographic) way, sexual contact between children."
"In two of the photographs, the accused's erect member is seen in the foreground, while in the background, in a pink skirt, the child is seen climbing a tree."
"The defendant removed the child's panties and touched the sex of this."
"The defendant, who in the first instance denied the facts, now admits them on appeal."
"Cumulative prison sentence of 1 year and months."
FF: For me, at this point, it is clear that it was Helge (last name redacted) who turned suspicion to Christian Bruckner in the Madeliene McCann case.
Man asking MS: How and what only after ten years, did Helge (last name redacted) talk about these videos?
MS: Christian Brueckner was an idiot, that was always clear. Nobody liked him, but we never talked about the Madeleine McCann case. Never!
FF: The fact is that Helge (last name redacted) um had some problems with the police in Greece. He was brought to court for human trafficking and got a sentence for 7 years and 3 months and then came out of prison after 20 months. And uh I don't know yet why he got out so fast but um that could have something to do with the Madeleine case, maybe not.
MS: Under normal circumstances, I would have known about Madeleine too, if Helge (last name redacted) really did. When she (He? CB? Helge?) got out of prison she (He? CB? Helge?) lived three months with me in Lamia. (?)
Man to MS: Could Helge (last name redacted) be lying?
MS: I'm starting to get the idea that something isn't quite right. All this is strange when you don't have money.
Man to MS: Is it possible that Helge (last name redacted) is trying to frame Christian Brueckner to get out of his own legal troubles?
MS: There is no other explanation, because when Christian Brueckner was in Spain, at the festival (of Orgiva, in 2008) (A picture is shown of a property outside surrounded by mountains) still sold 5 kg of hashish to Helge (last name redacted) to take to Germany. And if I'd known he was the killer, I wouldn't have made the deal.
HCW: These two witnesses (Seyferth and Busching) belong to another case. Action of the American woman who was raped and whose sentence was read last year here in Braunschweig. They are not central parts of our process.
FF: We are fighting more in the media then any thing other. Mr. Wolters and the BKA are doing interviews.
SF: You feel it's an unfair game?
FF: Yes, of course it is. It is very unfair. The fairest thing would be to give us the files to let us check what evidence is there and then maybe we can react on that.
SF: Does your client tell you he has nothing to do with Madeleine McCann disappearance?
FF: Everything that passes between the client and the lawyer is protected. And so I can't tell you what he tells me, but you can be sure that doesn't mean he has anything to hide.
SF: How do you react to this new information that your client is being investigated by another child abuse in algarve in 2007?
FF: What happened was that they showed the victim a series of photographs, and she was unable to identify the accused, that is, my client. Will have said that he wasn't sure and that there was only a 50% chance it was him.
HCW: We know her (Salema beach victim) and we uh speak with her so... This is the result of the things he (she?) told us.
(They show the police document again for the April 2007 Salema beach incident. The print is clearer on this one.)
(Redacted) until the 11-04-2007, which denounces an individual of white race, dark-skinned, with several moles all over his body, blond hair, short, no beard, little hair, with about 1.80 / 1.85 m in height , With 20/30 Years of Age, With 4 Teeth Upwards Outward, for the practice of the following facts:
On April 7, 2007, around 3:30 pm, at Praia da Salema, more specifically on the rocks, the aforementioned individual was completely naked, and approached his daughter (Full name redacted), born on 03-18-1997.
That his daughter was in the company of other children, and the individual asked her in English her name, and in the act continued to grab her by an arm, pulling her towards the sand, starting to masturbate, as he realized that the same German age said in the same language, wait, look.
Because of these facts, his son, also a minor, went to his side, telling him what had happened, and he immediately went to see what was happening.
He says that when he realized his presence, he fled towards the rocks, climbing the cliff, failing to see him.
That the same, in addition to being naked, had a backpack on his back, as well as a cloth wrapped around one of his arms.
That he had never seen such a person, however, if he crossed paths with him, he could identify him.
She declares that she wants criminal proceedings against the accused, as well as being compensated for what her daughter may suffer.
Which does not present Witnesses of the factors.
Who wants to be notified in the event of an eventual shelving of the process.
In this act, the complainant/complainant was warned that the alteration of the delay (blocked by sexta9 advert), through the delivery of an application or its .... the secretariat where the Cases are running... n. do c.p.p.
Bispo, April 9, 2007
FF: It's a classic case of repeated recognition. The victim does not recognize the author, only recognizes the photograph.
They show another document from GNR with an excerpt...
- For the purposes of carrying out this inquiry, I nominate the Corporal.
Portimao, April 13, 2007
Another excerpt from a document from GNR...
From the description, it is assumed that the individual is not a resident of this Municipality of Vila do Bispo, leading to the belief that he would be a Foreign Citizen.
As there is nothing more to mention and there are no plans to carry out other steps at the moment, this Inquiry is closed on the fourteenth day of April in the year two thousand and seven.
SF: Looking back, don't you regret nothing?
HCW: *Sighs* I can't say anything because I can't be evaluating the work of British and Portuguese colleagues. And I don't know in detail when they had each element of the investigation.
SF: Don't you feel responsible of him being traveling around europe in such a criminal activity uh without being stopped?
HCW: To the German authorities, he was not especially unique and they were not given the idea that he was especially dangerous. I don't know how it is in Portugal, but in the years when he was not in Germany, he was in Portugal and we are not interested in him here.
SF: Are you sure you'll be able to charge Christian B. for Madeleine's dissappearance?
HCW: What we have now is still not enough to accuse him.
FF: We can assume that there is still nothing very definite, otherwise the indictment would have already been brought, or there would have been an arrest warrant.
The case cannot therefore be as solid as the prosecution claims.
(A document from Tribunal de Braunschweig is shown.)
An excerpt reads: He is single and has no children. The liaisons with his former companions have all ended. In Germany the accused does not have any social relations, so after being released he will return to Portugal.
MS: After the trial in Braunschweig (in December 2019), I went to Frankfurt. And then the German police came to get me and they said it was a case of murder.
They didn't tell me about Madeleine McCann. But they said it was a case of murder.
Man asks MS: So did you talk to the German police about the murder?
MS: They said it was a case of homicide and then asked me if I knew two Russians in Spain. And I said I don't know any Russians in Spain.
SF: From what you know about Nicole (Last name redacted)'s life, did she ever work with people of Russian nationality?
Disguised poeple: When she talked about the Russians, she said they were the best customers when buying yachts. Her customers were the ones who bought her husband's yachts. To the husband, or the partner at the time...
Young guy: Nicole is the name of my foster mom.
SF: You saw her with other men.
Young guy: Yeah. I saw her often.
SF: And she used to go to Disco Techs?
Young guy: Yeah.
SF to Disguised couple: And what was she doing at the casino?
Disguised couple: Dancing.
SF: She was a ballerina
Disguised couple: As she told us. And they took pictures. She also said that she posed. I also posed. He also posed for photos. She called it "photo shoots."
SF to young guy: Was it easy to Nicole to get out at night?
Young guy: Yeah, there was no problem. Mathias said no problem. It's easy.
SF: She had a very free kind of life.
Young guy: Yeah.
Some man: If they were a criminal association, then that's part of the project.
At the very end it states: continua...
