Brueckner gives chilling interview as Madeleine McCann search begins…& says he can’t wait to savour steak on his release

Published on June 03, 2025 at 08:49 AM

MADELEINE McCann prime suspect has bragged he can’t wait to be freed – so he can have a steak and a beer.

In his first interview, convicted paedo Christian Brueckner, 48, told a German broadcaster he was fed-up of being in prison – just as a kicks off.

The rapist – who has refused to answer police – whinged that staying tight lipped means he speaks less than ten words a day.

He even claimed he had forgotten how to use his facial expressions.

Brueckner told RTL he did not kill Maddie.

He also denied the 2005 rape he was convicted of in 2019 and which keeps him behind bars.

He said: “As I told you, of course, the fact that I have been in prison for many years for something that I cannot have committed and that therefore, through the participation of the media, half the world considers me a cruel rapist.”;

Brueckner was sentenced to seven years behind bars for raping an elderly woman in the Algarve – and is

He is seeing out his sentence in voluntary solitary confinement after being attacked by another inmate, who broke one of his ribs.

German prosecutors have been clear they – but it’s now a race against time for them to pin him to the crime.

Brueckner admits that, if released, without an extradition treaty with Germany and go into hiding.

Philipp Marquort, one of his lawyers, previously said: “If I were him I would leave Europe and look for a state which doesn’t extradite to Europe or Great Britain, maybe like Suriname.”;

The lawyer also told The Mirror: “I would get a face operation if I were him. I mentioned to him it would be nice for him to change his face or how he looks so that nobody can recognise him anymore.”;

That means that even if evidence linking Brueckner to Maddie’s death surfaces further down the line, it may be impossible to haul him back to Germany to face justice.

Prosecutors have been scrambling to buy time in this knowledge.

Their last attempt involved charging Brueckner with insulting a prison guard – a crime in Germany – for which he was found guilty, but only received a suspended sentence, meaning his jail term was not extended.
