I do find the prime suspect in Maddy's disappearance, Christian Brückner, difficult to analyse. Some of his crimes, such as breaking and entering and stealing items of value seem opportunistic, whilst others ascribed to him including Maddy, René Hasee, Carola Titze and Inge Gehricke may have an element of planning about them. The rape of a 72-year-old woman, for which he still remains incarcerated, shows he needs control whilst possessing an uncontrollable sexual urge leading to bestiality, which along with his criminally-minded brain may be a reason for this particular crime, which on the surface does seem incongruous given the age of the other victims. Of course he may not be guilty of any of the former.
His background might not surprise anyone who studies crime. An adoptee from an early age, a wayward youth who became involved in petty crime after his stepfather was invalided and stepmother unable to cope, taken out of mainstream education and placed in a reform school for two years. Upon release in 1995 he heads to the Algarve aged 18 and takes a job as a catering assistant.
What is it with him that makes him unable to form stable relationships with members of either sex? No affection, no release valve, just bumming around in his campervan looking for unprincipled ways to make money, affording him the chance to satisfy abnormal sexual fantasies, to destroy the lives of anyone who is having fun in a family setting, the family he was deprived of when he was growing up and which he believed was his right?
This is Amoreira beach, where René Hasee disappeared. There may be no link to Maddy or to Christian B. But it does seem a strange coincidence nevertheless, one year after his arrival in Portugal and only a few months after release from a sexual abuse charge of a young girl in Wurzburg.
