Helge Busching, a figure from Brueckner’s past, stunned investigators in 2017 by disclosing vital information about Madeleine’s disappearance.

“He said he had information,” recounted DC Draycott, “and he left a Greek mobile number.”

That message, left by an anonymous caller, sparked a whirlwind investigation that would ultimately hone in on Brueckner as a prime suspect.
