    Will predatory paedophile Christian Brueckner strike again now he's been released from jail? Very possibly, and will he get away with one of the biggest crimes of our lifetimes, the abduction and murder of Madeline McCann, ( if he did it) that's now very likely.

    World leading expert on men who abduct and murder children, ex Surrey senior detective Graham Hill, now a PHD criminologist, presented an ITV documentary focusing on prime suspect Brueckner and there's little doubt he's responsible. In this fascinating discussion with Professor David Wilson, two authorities on men who prey on children, talk the failings of the McCann inquiry, the case against Brueckner and destroy the conspiracy theorists who implicate the toddler's grieving parents.
