After years of fruitless research, the much-publicized Maddie case saw a sudden acceleration in June 2020 with the identification by the German police of a suspect, the German Christian B., a repetitive pedophile already convicted of a rape in Portugal and currently detained in Germany.

This forty-year-old was sentenced in December 2019 to seven years in prison for the rape of a 72-year-old American in 2005 in the village where Maddie disappeared.

The investigation continues

German investigators do not exclude that Christian B. may be involved in other cases not yet clarified.

He is also the subject of an investigation into the rape in 2004 of an Irish woman then aged 20, in the Algarve region, a 30-minute drive from the place of the girl's disappearance.

Despite the pandemic, "the investigation to find Madeleine and her captor continued," thanked her parents. "As we have said time and time again, we need to know what happened to our adorable daughter."
