“We have to help him defend himself and tell him what a good person he is. The German police and the Public Prosecution Service are after him and portray him as a monster,” reports an old acquaintance of Christian B.* (46) to the “Spiegel”.
Apparently the German is currently trying to recruit old friends to help him with the process. Because: The 46-year-old is the main suspect in the case of missing Maddie McCann.
The girl disappeared from her family’s apartment in a holiday resort in Praia da Luz on the Algarve coast in southern Portugal on May 3, 2007, shortly before her fourth birthday, while her parents were dining in a restaurant just a few steps away. few meters away. Despite an international search, the case was never solved and to this day there is still no trace of the British girl.
The investigators know for sure: Christian B. is guilty. However, decisive evidence is lacking.
At least two of his friends in Portugal have received desperate letters from him in recent months. In it, the 46-year-old asks her for support if he has to stand trial for rape and sexual assault of children.
“When we were with him in the early 2000s, it was all secret. We didn’t know he was a pedophile. But now he has no chance of anyone standing up for him in court,” said the former acquaintance. The letters from the defendant visibly shock his former friends. Because they had not heard from him for years. They find B’s request …scandalous, considering they all now know about his past.
B. is currently serving a several-year prison sentence in Germany after a final conviction for rape in Portugal in 2005. At the same time, the Braunschweig Public Prosecutor’s Office charged him last year with several other sexual crimes that he also allegedly committed between 2000 and 2017 in Portugal have committed.
The Public Prosecution Service in Braunschweig initially filed a report because B. lived there in 2016. However, his lawyer Friedrich Fuelscher argued that he actually lived in Neuwegersleben (Lower Saxony). The court agreed with him, but the public prosecutor wants to overturn the verdict. However, the suspect could hope in vain for help from his former friends. (gs)
