Disturbing Evidence Against Christian Brueckner: Children’s Swimwear, Masks, Guns, and Explicit Images Found on Hard Drive

BOMBSHELL evidence found at the lair of Madeleine McCann suspect Christian Brueckner is revealed for the first time.

A Sun investigation, to be broadcast at 9pm tonight on Channel 4, has laid bare the haul found in a German police search

The disturbing evidence shows Brueckner’s obsession with young kids.

Children’s clothes and toys were found at the paedophile rapist’s abandoned lair, plus masks, chemicals and guns. 

There was also a hard-drive of pictures which German investigators continue to keep secret.

It is believed to indicate why they are sure Madeleine is dead. 

Much of the newly uncovered evidence was found by chance at a disused factory Brueckner bought for £20,000 in 2008, a year after Madeleine vanished. 

In 2016 a dog ran on to the property and appeared to find a grave.

Our findings will be broadcast in Channel 4 documentary Maddie: The Unseen Evidence at 9pm tonight, or stream via Channel4.com

Local cops then discovered Brueckner’s dead dog – but underneath was a wallet with six USB sticks and two memory cards. 

They contained highly disturbing material — and 100 cops launched a full search of the compound in Neuwegersleben, central Germany. 

They found stories by Brueckner showing his obsession with snatching children.

He describes drugging a mum and daughter outside a pre-school — and abusing a blonde girl aged four. 

There were also records of horrifying Skype chats with other paedos, telling one he wanted to “capture something small and use it for days”. 

Child abuse images are also said to have been linked to Brueckner during the searches.

Police found a case with pictures of girls aged four and five.

There were also more than 75 kids’ swimming costumes plus toys and small bikes. 

Three black-market guns and ammunition were discovered. A mask was also found with creepy mock-up pictures of Brueckner. 

Meanwhile, a satnav showed his movements in the Algarve in the years after Madeleine disappeared. 

A weird nude selfie links the suspect directly to the Arade Dam, a key location 35 miles from where she vanished in Praia da Luz. 

Investigators also unearthed an insurance document signed by Brueckner, detailing a crash he experienced at a festival where he reportedly confided to a friend that Madeleine “did not scream”.

Within months of the search, Brueckner had been convicted of child abuse. 

It would be another year before an associate tipped off cops about his potential link to Madeleine. 

Brueckner’s lawyers failed to respond to requests for comment. 

THE EVIDENCE

Insurance document 

THIS proves for the first time Brueckner was at a festival in April 2008 when he allegedly all but confessed to killing Madeleine. 

Witness Helge B claims he told him the girl “didn’t scream”, but credibility questions have been raised.

The insurance document, filled in and signed by Brueckner, shows that he crashed his motorhome at the festival in Orgiva, Spain. 

Weird images

CREEPY photographs show Brueckner at a key location of interest for Madeleine investigators. 

In some, he is seen modelling a mask and even posing naked at the Arade Dam, 35 miles from Praia da Luz, which was searched in 2023.

A sat nav also found by officers shows his pattern of movements around the site in the years after Madeleine vanished. 

Hard drive/laptop

POLICE are in possession of a hard drive of images which were found hidden at Brueckner’s abandoned lair in Germany. 

The photos — taken in Portugal — are said to be crucial in persuading investigators that Madeleine died shortly after her disappearance in May 2007. 

Other vital information was found on a laptop handed to police. 

Jaguar and chemicals

A JAGUAR matching the description of Brueckner’s vehicle in Germany was also found by cops. 

Photographs reveal bottles containing substances inside. Officers opted to destroy them without conducting tests, but there is speculation that the collection might have included kidnapping agents like chloroform or ether. 

In his stories Brueckner fantasised about a kidnap using ether. 

Suitcase

A METAL suitcase was discovered during the police search in 2016 containing chilling photographs of young girls. 

There was also a list of phone numbers at the abandoned factory. An address book was also found separately nearby. 

Paedophile Brueckner was convicted of an unconnected child abuse allegation within months. 

Creepy finds

MASKS, unlicensed guns and ammunition, children’s toys and bikes were found at childless Brueckner’s bolthole in Neuwegersleben, central Germany. 

There were also 75 youngsters’ swimming costumes. They were uncovered in a 100-officer search of the compound.

It came after disturbing images were found on data storage buried under his dead dog.
