Christian Brückner is still suspected in the case of Maddie McCann, the British girl who disappeared in the Algarve in 2007. Now his ex-girlfriend has testified about him for the first time. He hit her, she says, and abused her daughter several times. Images of one of those facts have also been found that he shared with other perverts.

Brückner’s 35-year-old ex-girlfriend calls her relationship with the German a nightmare today. She was beaten by him and he could not stay with her daughter. “He has abused her at least three times,” she says in the British media.
She eventually reported him to the police.
The woman lived with her daughter in his apartment next to the kiosk where Brückner worked in the northern German city of Braunschweig. From there he kept a constant eye on her. “I was not allowed to do anything, he did everything. I had to stay at home, he could come and go as he pleased. And when he came home drunk, I was hit. There was no need for it, ”she says.
She says she does not want to make statements about Maddie McCann, because she knows nothing about it. But she does say that she didn’t trust her ex-boyfriend for anything. That is why she ended her relationship with him after nine months.
Brücker is still serving a sentence for drug trafficking. But will also have to answer for sexual abuse.
Court documents available to the British newspaper show that Christian Brückner owned a Casio Exilim, a small digital camera on which he kept 391 child pornography photos and 68 violent videos of boys and girls. The device also features images of himself abusing his ex-girlfriend’s five-year-old daughter. That device eventually turned out to be the most important evidence in two trials against the man.
Hundreds of images of child pornography
In one of those lawsuits, he was also officially charged with sexually assaulting the girl and possessing child pornography.
A ten-page judgment from the Braunschweig court reveals that in the photos, children under 14 were abused by adults. According to police, the gruesome videos were taken from the internet and stored on the camera’s memory card. The memory card also contained several nude and other sexually explicit photos of another ex-girlfriend of Brückner, not the five-year-old’s mother.
Local police also found an illegal Reck P6E pistol with ammunition in his apartment.
Brücker insists he has nothing to do with the kidnapping of Maddie McCann. But he invokes his duty of silence when the police want to question him about it.
The British girl (3) went missing on May 3, 2007 from the holiday apartment her parents had rented at the Ocean Club in Praia da Luz in the Algarve. The child disappeared while the parents were eating with friends a little further away.
At the beginning of June of this year, the German justice and police surprisingly announced that they suspect 43-year-old German Christian Brückner of the kidnapping and murder of Maddie.
