Case against Madeleine McCann prime suspect Christian B set to crumble after investigators found he has an alibi
THE case against Madeleine McCann prime suspect Christian B is set to crumble after British investigators found he has an alibi.
A team led by an ex-detective have discovered the sex predator, 44, was “30 minutes away” from the resort in Praia da Luz, Portugal, when Madeleine disappeared.
Their TV programme, Madeleine McCann: Investigating the Prime Suspect, is set to demolish the case against B, who is in jail in Germany where authorities have said he killed her.
Phone records were said to show him near the scene the night she vanished aged three in 2007.
But the new probe led by former Surrey Police detective Mark Williams-Thomas, is said to show an alibi for B “stacks up”.
The TV team, who spent months in Portugal and Germany, found new witnesses in both countries who throw his guilt into doubt.
Our source said: “They have concluded B could not have snatched Madeleine. He was 30 minutes away and was not on the phone in Praia da Luz the night she vanished.”
The three-parter is set to air on Channel 5 soon.
