A British man has come forward claiming his German wife ran over Madeleine McCann. He reports his wife was drunk, hitting the girl then the couple hid, then disposed of the body.  According to an new report, sister of the man submitted a tip to police in the UK in 2018 which was reportedly not investigated.  This tip came at a time when German national Christian Brueckner had been named a suspect in the 2007 disappearance of British toddler Madeleine McCann,

Brueckner, 44, was convicted in Germany of raping an elderly American woman in 2005. He served 7 years.  Three-year-old Maddie went missing from a vacation rental while on a family holiday in Portugal.

A Portuguese prosecutor in Braunschweig, Germany, has been pursuing a case against Brueckner since June 2020.
