If the parents were lower class, instead of rich media-savvy doctors, they would have been punished and lost their other kids.
I thought the same thing. No one would have had compassion for poorer people.
Facts.
Isn't that the sad truth! Good comment! 🌊⚓
@@beckyweisfeld6977 there was controversy specifically in Portugal amongst the people over the speculation that a portuguese couple would have been arrested for neglect because leaving your children under 5 alone in an unlocked space in a foregin country is obvious neglect. The only reason they got away w their neglect was because they were a rich European anglo saxon couple.
Mr. Sailor: "If the parents were lower class" then it's unlikely they would be on a costly holiday at a foreign resort, so your premise is out the window. But I'm not writing to insult you or troll you because your opinion is obviously popular among the commenters here on RUclips. It remains, sadly, my opinion that so many commenters seem to blindly castigate the parents and not the Fiend who committed this atrocity. One of the reasons this story resonates with so many people is the unspoken and frightening fact that many a caregiver has behaved similarly, if only the once. What parent has not walked out of the nursery - or even the house - after getting the little ones bedded down and asleep, just to get a few moments of quiet after a full day of caregiving? That's the scary bit because we've all done it. So if it's OK to walk out the room, how far becomes too far? Ten feet? One hundred feet? Perhaps those who have never cared for little children will not understand this argument. [And please, before commenters begin to type furious rebuttals, my comment is NOT meant to minimize or excuse the mistake this mum and dad made because it was, in hindsight, a tragic mistake.] Yet intent is a significant aspect to understanding this incident. Does any reasonable person truly believe this couple consciously thought "We're about to endanger our children by leaving them alone but, we're hungry" as they stepped out for dinner? And yes, they did not lock the door. But the only way to know if a door is unlocked is to approach and directly interact with the door and give it a turn or pull. None of us were at the Portugal resort were we could appreciate the environmental circumstances that apparently lulled these parents into a sense of safety and security within the compound. Instead of uber-analyzing the actions of these tragic parents, future commenters should focus on the actions of the child predator that murdered a small innocent child.
It’s bad enough that the children were left unattended, but I just don’t understand why they would leave the door unlocked…
Insane
Yeah, I'm not buying it yet. WHO is the world, especially educated Drs, would leave TODDLERS alone in a resort, in a foreign land? Most adults are well aware that is frowned upon in the comfort of your own home. Do you they sleep with their doors open at home? They must, because a foreign land sure doesn't heighten their senses. I'm just not convinced yet. Lol
It's absurd ... there's no way I'm leaving my children alone, much less with the doors open. If I'm going to be selfish and go partying, I'm not taking them on a trip!
Having professional degrees doesn't seem to give you the ability to have common sense, at least in the case of Madeline's parents.
Are you really throwing your judgment on this poor family?
The monsters picture is present for your review. PEACE
That family deserves this judgment.
I used to work in a 5 star hotel. I lost count of the number of times I found young children wondering around day and night by themselves because the parents had gone out.. It used to make me really angry.
If commenters here heard that they'd accuse all the parents of murder
@@no_peace Who is accusing the McCanns of murdering their daughter? Certainly not the Portuguese police whose investigations found that Madeleine probably died in some tragic accident due to criminal neglect and the McCanns panicked and decided to hide her body and make out she'd been abducted.
I believe the parents were probably raised in an upper middle class or rich families and had never had anything bad happen. Had the attitude that only stuff like that happens to poor families.
You may have saved one of those children's lives!
Where is she?
There are two more victims here who are never mentioned: the twins, whose whole childhood has been overshadowed by this, no matter what really happened.
You are absolutely right and have thought of that many times. Moreover, if I were one of the twins I would go see an hypnotherapist because, although they were asleep, something, anything that might help solve the case, might still be buried deep inside their consciousness.
I always think of them.
So true you are the first one that I've seen looking at it like that. You are absolutely right.
@@mariannasoares2388 THATS REALLY SMART I never realised they were such a thing though
Nor is Brenda Leyland
Never leave your child where you wouldn't leave a million dollars. A child is priceless. Would the parents have left a million dollars in an unlocked hotel room?
These 2 have absolutely no common sense, so yeah, they probably would have. Probably wouldn't "think" it would get stolen..🙄
I still think the parents are guilty!!!! There’s no proof of this Christian did it!!!
@Amanda Dye...I agree with you...great analogy...they were so cheap they did not want to pay a sitter...so I bet they would fully protect the million bucks...sadly...they did not feel that thier babies were as priceless as most people do...they have always infuriated me ✌
Excellent comparison! Many people value their money more without being consciously aware and the McCanns didn’t hire someone because they either did not want to pay for it or were already aware of what their meal would most likely cost and they decided accordingly. Poor little child 😔
Never leave your child where you wouldn't leave a pack of cigarettes! Which is easier to replace?
The hotel even had babysitting services available that they declined to use, it breaks my heart that Madeline was taken when it was so easily preventable.
Unreal. I will never be able to understand what they were thinking..
However, they lost a child in a terrible way. That’s the worst punishment ever.
@JAMIEKEWL23 I don’t think they do all that much. Story goes that they have a less than honourable circle of friends; I read somewhere that many of them favour the company of young children. I read bad things about that little posse. I’m not sure what to think.
Source? I read that YOU like the company of kids.
See how easy it is to talk shit
No evidence she was taken btw...none whatsoever.
The parents need to spend a substantial amount of time in prison for their wanton and disgusting neglect of their 3 children. Typically, I would not verbally attack parents who had lost their child to murder, because as a parent of one adult daughter who I would gladly give my life for if she needed me, I cannot fathom the loss of her, but the fact that they left the door to their hotel suites of their and other “parents’” unattended babies unmotherfuckinglocked is more than troublesome to me. Those children were offered up as human sacrifices to some sick bastard who gladly accepted their crude offer. That is sickening to me. They had lots of money, but only a little concern for the health and well-being of their children. Forgive me for my crass language, but those fucking people bother me.
I know I would not have left my children alone in a foreign country however I'm reluctant to judge the McCanns. A friend of mine took her child to Spain and the babysitter betrayed their trust and abducted her son for a child trafficking ring. The criminals were caught and the child was rescued before any further harm could befall him. I had no idea that European countries had such a problem until she told me of it. But it reminds me also of the European backpackers who expect to be able to hitch-hike safely in Australia. They can't. There's too much space and uninhabited bush. Ivan Milat murdered 7 backpackers before he was caught. Each country has it's own peculiar dark side.
i am from Europe and I have never heard of a child abduction problem here in decades, outside of custody battles. I think that your friends story may have been due to a language misunderstanding but please send details of the court case. she must have testified in court, right?
@@BabylonPatrol Same, Im Spanish and I have never heard of this kind of children abductions, I feel is a really safe country in that sense, and definitely much safer than countries like the US.
@@amaia7045 thanks, lady! i think all these weird things that only occur in hyped media are worth having a second look at. especially in comparison to the blatantly obvious issues that no one seems to worry about. like divorce, for example: it clearly fucks kids up and most of them hate it. but you're pretty much a Nazi for even mentioning reservations. just tells you far more about media than holidays in Portugal or Spain.
and talking about media: the most sickening fun fact about the Maddie McCann case i found to be that the dad apparently called British media upon his wife finding her missing.... before police or security. go figure!
I was invited to Portugal I've travelled alot but didn't go there perhaps it's for the best
It’s because Portugal is the last place you’d expect something like this to happen.
Portuguese just ain’t like that, and regardless, this Christopher guy was German, and we all know how fucked they are. Just 70 years ago they were burning Jews
"The police sent him a letter, asking him to swing by the police station. He decided to decline their generous offer, he chose instead to flee." Now that's deadpan sarcasm.
Yep total nuts
Breuckner was ruled out by the Portuguese police in 2007 because he has nothing to do with the disappearance of Madeleine McCann.
if someone is not acused of a crime at the moment and there is no investigation going on, police will always do so in Germany. They might have had no evidence against him at that time.
@@ruthbashford3176 ? Breuckner is the chief suspect in this case.
@@briantitchener4829 It was later that the German police checked phone records, and detected a phone belonging to him was used near the complex where the McCann's were staying.
Dr Grande takes NO days off
He's a beast! 💪💪💪
@Phuk Youu why don't you do it then?
@Phuk Youu are you referring to him having experience as a psychologist/therapist? They're actually known for NOT making much money. Psychiatrists (Medical Doctors that specialise in mental health) are known for having good salaries.. so you might be confused.
I'm really just throwing this reply out there as I don't think it would be fair for people to just read these kinds of comments and just assume that a group of people are on average wealthy, when they actually aren't.
In saying that, given Dr Grande does several types of jobs on and off, and has been globally successful at a couple of them, I'm sure he's quite well off financially.. However, that's besides the point of really anything, anyway.
What the hell were you even talking about? Why am I asking? Does Dr Grande actually drink from his own head mug?...... These are the questions that keep me up at night. Git phukd m8.
@Phuk Youu Ha. Nice try, but hey, glad you're having fun ^_^ By the way, Construction Workers and other tradies get paid a great salary (depending on the country of course), and I don't think anyone looks down on them. Phuk meeee, but okay. And sure, you've convinced me. Psychologists are jerks for wanting to help and take care of people, just like nurses, teachers, etc... What a bunch of phuk-faces really. 👍 👁️💋👁️
I hope he doesn't burn himself out coz his research and output is full on.
The parents piss me off. What are they thinking, leaving small children alone? That's not just stupid, it's negligent.
I don't disagree with you. But the comments here, all blaming the parents - I get it. But damn, I think they have paid the price? They know their actions helped someone to take and kill their daughter. I can't even imagine how that would affect a person.
@@jonnylumberjack6223 it would probably ruin my life.
@@lynnv8501 well, yeah. But they had two other kids, so what choice did they have but to live with it? I have no argument with folks pointing out the media reaction to them, as a middle class, white family, was epically different than if they had been "poor", or non white. But again...what choice had they but to exploit that as much as they could, in a desperate attempt to bring some kind of end to the mystery? Wouldn't you do literally anything to get her back, if it were you? They fucked up, badly, on the night she was taken. Since then it must have been a living, waking nightmare. It hurts my brain and my heart to think about what they've gone through since then. I don't understand the vitriol.
@@jonnylumberjack6223 I know nothing about the parents. I couldn't tell you anything about how this has affected them. My own parents were very negligent and me and my 4 brothers are blessed to be alive, because this story could be about us, and I'm not exaggerating. We've escaped death, jail, and me I've been compromised more than once because of my parents leaving me on my own while getting themselves stoned. Maybe this is why I feel so deeply when I see negligence. I feel anger toward the parents, but not hate.
@@lynnv8501 To give the narrative of leaving the children alone is a lot less nefarious as to what really happened. They did not leave the kids alone. There is no confirmed sighting of maddie of up to 3 days prior. Look beyond of what u are being told.
It baffles me that, not only did they leave their 3 children alone in an unlocked apartment, but then Kate proceeded to leave the twins alone in that same apartment to inform Gerry that Maddie had been taken 🤔
Great point!!
Because she knew they were safe.
Because they were in on it ,very strange
Np offence if at baffles you I give 🎶 up ⚖ 🧠 walks like duck quacks like duck it's a fucking duck !!! Come on milly ffs Jesus wept !

@@debbiemcglade6363 Debbie - please don’t insult my intelligence (and why an earth are you mentioning class?). At what point did I say I believe they’re innocent…I thought my view that they’re not innocent was inferred.
If I were a detective in this case, I would look for a connection between the restaurant and any of its employees to Brueckner, who may have acted as accomplices to his burglaries at the resort. If there was a pattern of robberies while the victims were dining, and a correlation with OTHER dates of other burglaries, with similar calls received on his phone, it would be a convenient way to have easy access to unattended condos and hotel rooms. The wait staff, reservation taker, or cashier could easily elicit that information from a diner.
They probably could charge food to their rooms using the room number
@@no_peace Who "they"? My understanding is there was no 'room service' to apartments for food deliveries from the resort's restaurants. If guests wanted a meal from those restaurants, they either dined there on a first come, first seated basis (no reservations allowed, at least not at the Tapas where only 20 covers per evening were allowed for holidaymakers who'd booked their stay through Mark Warner Travel; and an exception was made there for the T9 to make an advanced reservation for an 8.30pm Tapas dinner booking from the Monday until the Thursday -- the same Thurs that Maddie was reported missing) or went there themselves to order & pick-up a take-out. [ETA: After Maddie vanished, a Tapas supervisor delivered lunch to the apartment units of the McCanns and their relatives.] Guests could charge resort food that was not already paid for pre-arrival or charge extra drink that was not considered complimentary with their meals to their apartment units. I can't see the point of a burglar or accomplice charging food to an apartment number as a means of accessing the apartment.
@Daniel O'Donoju No authority has released evidence that CB committed burglaries at the Luz Ocean Club resort. ....If either Kate or Gerry McCann told any police authority that resort restaurant staff or other staff or fellow guests or strangers had enquired of them about the whereabouts of their children while they were out dining, then that info has not been made public.
If I was a detective in this case I would want to question and investigate the McCanns and their friends, the Tapas 7.
@@ruthx3346 This raises the question of how and what the children were fed? Too old for baby food, so what did the twins and Madeline have for dinner that night, and where did the parents get it?
😞 so sad that everyone failed the poor little angel... she suffered the most 😞
Exactly... But i can tell you that the police in Germany is close (right), but he knows he most shut up.
@@yellowstone2ndtrumpet304 the German suspect guy is a patsy.
The parents know exactly what happened and were involved. Madeleine is dead 😒😒
@@janeyd5280 No man... He is a freak himself. He took the kid, after he found out there was nothing to steal and hit her already knockout in the sleeping room of the parrents after she woke up. He took her because of 2 possible reasons but in both cases he knows, he most get the body away. Torture pray... Witness killing... He could not leave the body behind.
The thing is : “Missing person” either a child or someone older is very hard to accept. Its not like being death. You do not ever see that person again, but the thought of being lost does not sink in, because you do not see a funeral. So I know it is so sad but you wish you at least have a proper funeral to have a concrete evidence that your loved one exists/existed... :(
The fact that she said Daddy why didn't you come last night when Sean and I were crying? They could have shut down their social life right there
who said that?
@@ebonyy5248 maddie
@Libby Elle There is nothing wrong with the adults wanting to drink and dine. They should have paid for a babysitter or left the children at home in the UK.
@@ebonyy5248 Madeleine. She said it that morning at breakfast to that thing that was supposedly her 'mother's. But that's selfish narcissists right there for ya
@@sapphire22011 Absolutely it’s heartbreaking that she was asking for protection and it was refused
This case absolutely rips my heart out. Just can’t imagine how it feels to not know what happened to your baby and then find out that she was probably tortured by a hideous monster like this waste of space.
She died in the appartment. Something happened, most probably due to the medication they gave to keep the children sleepy. She must have fallen. The autopsy would show the drug they gave her. So they took her body out and hide it.
And the German police , so “politely “ sent the creep a letter to drop by the police station , so that they could ask him if he was involved 🙄. It’s unbelievable!!!
@@rose5566 Don't believe everything you read in the mainstream media. It would be difficult to send Breuckner a letter as he had nfa at the time. He was living in his campervan and moving about at the time. It's doubtful he was even in Luz.
Robyn.. The hideous monsters are the so called parents. How people can't see through the narrative that they have pushed since day 1 is beyond me. They are vile to put it nicely.
She wasn’t. She died in the apartment in Portugal
I live in Germany, and it's sadly true, that our justice system is weak and believes that "criminals" and "pedophiles" can somehow change and keep their sick tendencies under control. 🤦🏻♀️That guy should have been locked up way sooner.
I hope these parents learned their lesson...and other and future parents learn to never leave 2 or 3 year old children unattended.
go woman !!!! from merseyside
Das stimmt ja auch in vielen Fällen. Der Typ ist aber ein klarer Fall für die Sicherheitshaft, kein Versuch an sich zu arbeiten oder auch nur der Wille dazu.
if they had been in the US at the time they probably would have different countries have different laws unfortunately
You don't seem to need much evidence to lock up someone in Germany and it's also acceptable to say someone's guilty before they've had a trial if Herr Wolters is anything to go by. German justice stinks in my opinion.
absolutely right. German law is so weak
"It'll never happen to me." Famous last words.
So true! However… I strongly believe leaving a young child unattended will have consequences, one way or another. At home, during vacations, at the grocery store… it will have consequences.
1 key turned to lock a door and Madeline would be alive today....1 turn of a key...WHY would those idiot parents NOT lock a door????
WHY??
Why would the idiot parents leave their children unattended in the first place? That's even worse than not locking the door, although leaving it unlocked indeed makes it worse.
Easy access for them and fire risk
Also, I understand that the hotel offered baby sitting services, and the McCanns turned them down.
The guy had a history of burglary and you think a lock would have stopped him? 🙄
Not necessarily...it would be easy to break in..you fo not leave children with out adults in the home...a locked door does nothing..if they were being seen leaving g without the kids ... The fact they let people in the restaurant know they kids were all e a lock door would not deter a child molester/murderer/ trafficer
Thank you so much for saying this about the German court system. I am a law student and I have seen such mild sentences for even child rapists. One got out of jail after 5 years after sexually assaulting a number of small children. And this happened repeatedly. I’m so sick of this court system here. Sexual assault and rape crimes have such low sentences it’s unreal. When a refugee raped a young woman after talking to her briefly in a club at night, the judge said that because the woman previously talked to him and because the man hadn’t committed any previous crimes the rapist only had to spent one year in jail. The refugee man was only in Germany for a few years. No one knows if he raped women in his home country 😄. Just the fact that someone hasn’t raped someone in 3 years is good enough grounds to have a milder sentence is unbelievable to me. And the neighbors even heard the woman screaming „no“ during the rape. Somehow that wasn’t enough evidence for the judge.
Is it normal in Germany for a prosecutor to publicly declare someone guilty when there is absolutely no evidence against them? Wolters declared Breuckner guilty of murder 3 years ago and talked about concrete evidence and also said if you knew what we know you'd believe Breuckner is guilty. And yet 3 years later no charges have been made against Breuckner (even unrelated charges appear to have been dropped) and this concrete evidence is yet to be shared with anyone even the McCanns or Scotland Yard. Bizarre!
The parents did almost everything to make sure the kids were not safe that night, they should do jail time for neglect atleast
So their children should suffer even more?
Jerry McCann buried her body at around 10pm in the beach. Under that time his wife didn’t want to speak to the hotel manager as she was planning a story. Also want to add that the window was never open, the McCanns made that up after. I can confirm this as there are high evidence on this.
They have paid dearly…by blaming themselves first for leaving the kids alone and 2nd for not locking the door, and 3rd through their negligence their daughter likely suffered. This was clearly a preventable tragedy.
As a mother I would never leave my children alone. I’ve read another article they gave the kids some type of medicine to help them sleep. I think these people are incredibly self-centered. They wanted to go out and not be bothered with the kids. They should have hired a baby sitter or not gone out without the kids.
exactly, I remember that the parents were thought to have killed her for a looong time because of that substance they gave her. it was thought to have gone wrong - they gave her too much , she died - and the parents just got rid of the child.... the parents are, at least, horrible
Low level death cult members must hand their kids over to top cult members, or in this case, their sons. They made a video with their phone recording their disgusting abuse. All intelligence units have seen the video. It was spread on torrent sites more than 10 years ago, along with a video of a very prominent church leader, connected to u.s. and u.k. top VIPs.
The German guy is a scapegoat. A perv, but not the perp. The 4 sons of the friends of the parents did it, on purpose or accidentally. Police never questioned/interviewed the friends.
Yes!! Overdose. My friend Erik Medhus had an interview on his channel, says mom did not know what happened at first. The dad was controlling. But this crazy guy?
Or not had kids!
You should never leave your kids alone, you should never drug your kids, and finally you should never leave your kids alone drugged up and with the door unlocked.
Don't forget that they left the patio door unlocked. That is the icing on the cake of this horrible story. They didn't want to wake the kids by unlocking the front door, so they left the patio door unlocked and wrote that they needed certain seating in the publicly visible restaurant guestbook because they had left their children unattended and therefore needed to be able to see the apartment, presumably the front view.
I just don't buy it hey. What a weird thing to do.
Then they should have seen who went in there.
@@teletubbiestunetwister9570 Unless they only had a view of the front door, not of the patio door that they left unlocked.
They couldn't see it 😂😂 that's a LIE! They are GUILTY. 😣
@@teletubbiestunetwister9570 right!!!?!?!!!!
This is so difficult. Thank you Dr. Grande. Yes the McCann’s made the most horrible mistake. Somehow they were lulled into a false sense of security and will heartbreakingly pay for it for the rest of their lives. But I have learned in my 63 years on this planet never say never. Some of your viewers are (rightfully) shocked that they would leave the children unattended but no court could judge them as harshly as they will likely forever judge themselves 😞
They were "lulled" by convincing themselves that medicating, checking frequently, staying close and the support that tacitly occurred when the other parents behaved the same way...if your peers are doing it, then it must be safe. Except when its not! The Dr's McCann have paid the ultimate price for their hubris and negligence. The greatest price though, was paid by an innocent child who was betrayed by the parents who were supposed to keep her safe.
I feel that an employee of the resort was some how involved as they would have had first hand knowledge of the actions of the group and could have easily passed on specific information to a kidnapper.
"Lulled" haha pathetic.
You don't think the many inconsistencies in there stories and and no evidence of abduction is slightly suspicious?
If you believe the mccanns are innocent then your an absolute 🥒
@@andreapulver2127 I agree with you. Yes it was stupid but they are paying a huge price for it. This creepy character who was staying nearby was tipped off somehow.
Lulled maybe but their lack of common sense, logic and poor parenting overshadows the lulling.
Can't imagine the stalk, overwhelming fear, terror & pain that poor child endured nor do I want to.
She died in the appartment. Somehting happened, most probably due to the medication they gave to keep the children sleepy. She must have fallen. The autopsy would show the drug they gave her. So they took her body out and hide it.
She was awfully young to be left alone, unsupervised. My mom raised me to be a free spirit, but I wasn’t running around on my own until a more appropriate age.
Don't forget, they also left their twins there too, and they were only toddlers.
Agreed, I was also a free-spirit only- child to a single mother, but I was not left alone that young.
I remember traveling in Europe with my mother when I was really little, and my mother would use babysitter services from the hotel. I remember playing cards with one of them.
@@zappawench6048 True. They left three toddlers alone that night. WTH?
@BVI /Yes, and into the pool!
What about 2 babies also younger than Madeline . I think you should check THE GASPER STATEMENT. There is so much more to this case than Bruchner
Absolutely terrifying how he flew under the radar for that long
We have to ask how much of this is genuine and what if it’s just a way of closing a wide open case shut. They screwed up so much evidence and now they have cell data dating back to the time of Adam and Eve? Come on.... this is a case we must scrutinise
The whole thing is so false
not that under radar. I saw a piece on this guy a few years ago.
because he is just a scapegoat
@Mo Elm I absolutely got your point and you are right. I think, the obsession has to do with obviously privileged people, who got away with something they should not have. It is about injustice deep in the system. If you have friends in the government like the McCanns have and they send a spokesman and british police and money over to rescue you, but nobody really cares about the missing girl (and did not find any clue in a decade), that is fishy and people can smell it.
It's just as you said, Dr. G, that, it's difficult to imagine intelligent ppl doing something so negligent, and, in a foreign country, no less. Shocking.
As usual your analysis was quite edifying. Ty.
Recently I found a toddler locked up in a car at a shopping center. It was a hot summer day, about 6 PM so I called the police. And waited for them to arrive. It’s illegal here in my state to leave a kid in a car or vehicle atat any time of day , for any duration, for any reason. This story is so tragic. Thanks for this info…As a single parent, (& not a Dr.) unable to afford or find babysitters, I never dreamed of leaving my kid alone, even tho the pub was 5 minutes away and I really really wanted to get out of the house & socialize, Madeline’s parents didn’t even lock the door. However, most of us are naïve about criminals.
As the child's best advocate and protector, one should never let their guard down.
We can all be fooled into a false sense of security at the best of times. If and when someone is determined to do anything harmful or worse to anyone or steal something they will.
I do not understand how these people were able to leave their babies alone
It's rather unbelievable. Just so they could party with their friends. Selfish, reckless, entitled people. They will have to live with that the rest of their lives.
@Make gulags Great again But the McCann's were British. I wrote this in reply to another comment but it's worth repeating: this is not normal behaviour in the UK and the official recommendations are that children under 12 should not be left alone at all and children under 16 should not be left alone at night. I don't know any friends, family or acquaintances that would leave a child under 10 alone for any length of time and certainly not at night. I cannot speak for other European countries but it is absolutely not normal to leave children home alone in the UK.
@@cw9007 completely agree and was going to say this myself, it really isnt at all normal for kids to be left alone here in UK, you actually dont see that many kids playing out on the street either, there was a time you could leave your door unlocked and open but that changed a good 30/40 yrs ago after much earlier cases like this and other crime. I would say maybe theres an argumuent the Mccanns were in holiday mode relaxing, felt safe and disregarded any potential threat but i guarantee they are punishing themselves more than anyone else can.
@Make gulags Great again Sweden has considerably less crime than Portugal. Also, the parents are Brits, not Portuguese or Swedish. These are two highly intelligent very well educated physicians, and parents who were a little older than most. They weren't some teen parents who didn't know any better. One is a pediatrician. Would he have recommended that one of his patient's parents leave 3 toddlers, alone in an unlocked hotel room, while away on holiday, had he been asked prior to this? Also, I lived in Germany for 3 years and noted that parents, and mothers in particular, pay close attention to their kids. They have fewer children and appreciate the ones they have.
@@colico14 yup
Why would a person leave small children alone in ANY hotel room, let alone in a room that is unlocked. When one travels, the assumption should be made that criminals are about and will take advantage of any opportunity available to them.
Maybe the parents are not that innocent. Who knows? At the time they fled Portugal while the investigation was underway. Why would you do that? Wouldnt you want to be at hand, at least to press the police for progress in the investigation?
@@rj-jl5nv Agreed. They also gave the children sleeping pills regulary..
@@beckyweisfeld6977 i did not watch any documentary. I followed all the press reports back in the time, on a daily basis. And yes, they did flee when the portugueuse police started suspecting them. I remember thinking back then, why would someone innocent flee and not be present for their childs abduction investigation.
So, honestly, it’s pretty messed up thing to do. However, my parents acted in a lot of similar ways. I’m not totally sure, but I have this vague memory of wandering around the trailer park when I was 2, ended up at a friends trailer, and my mom or sister or someone came and got me
Excellent analysis, Dr. Grande! To explain one of the problems you mentioned, namely regarding the negligence of the German police, let me tell you (I am German) one thing: German authorities would never do anything they think might be construed as "Nazi", i.e. too authoritarian, too oppressive, repressive, "illiberal", "strict", the lot. We have to show all the world that we have really, really learned from our "past". This self-hating attitude has already broken the backbone of our society, and one of the many victims now seems to be little Madeleine.
Thank you for that explanation because I was flabbergasted when Dr. Grande, explained the absolute stupidity of the police sending a letter to this dangerous creep. He must have laughed at how easy it was for him for getting the chance to escape!
We are not responsible for what our ancestors did. 🇺🇸
Dr. Grande's analysis is pure speculation, he really knows very little about the case. After the Wolter debacle I think German justice stinks.
Rest assured Christian Breuckner has nothing to do with the disappearance of Madeleine McCann. German justice is a bit strange though accusing a man of murder when there is no evidence against him for that crime.
I am embarrassed by the stupid German laws set up in 1955. If it was for effective crime laws, this fucking Christian Bruckner Satan would already be dead and buried.
I love your way of just telling it with no extras. Nice to hear news to the point and get it over with. Great job
"It's like the court system doesn't understand the idea of a tendency" daaaaamn. Spitting straight facts, as the kids say today.
I read your comment as Dr Grande said that, what a mindfuck 😅
@@solala1312 From now on every word you read will be narrated by Dr Grande. Even food packaging.
The European justice system is pretty lax, especially when compared to the American justice system. Short prison terms for the most terrible crimes seems to be their idea of justice.
The parents could have used the hotels baby sitter service.. they could at least have locked the damn door!! But I don't understand why you'd leave your children unattended.. so even if they didn't have anything to do with the disappearance, they still neglected their children.
Truth! I feel like if they wanted to go to eat alone, they shouldn't have brought their children on the vacation. I'm sure they had plenty of money to pay a family member to watch them while they enjoyed an adult-only vacation together.
@@KimberlyBarkdoll yeah.. Or at least pay for a nanny or sitter while they're out and about by themselves. I can't for the life of me understand how they thought that leaving the kids by themselves in another country was any level of a good idea.
@@elin_ yup
Right? I feel terrible for those parents but who does that? Even if you take abduction out of the equation, why would you leave 3 children completely unattended? Like what if they start crying and there's no one there? What if they throw up or feel sick or decide to get out of bed and get hurt? who does that?
@@emb3863 Absolutely. And what if one of the kids woke up, went looking for mom and dad, and ended up leaving the apartment and wandering around? I would never be so cruel as to say, "they deserve what happened," but at the same time, it is not at all out of the realm of possibility that something bad could happen in a situation like the one the parents created.
Wow I don’t leave my room door unlocked even when only my laptop is in there. Anywhere

Obligatory comment of appreciation and to help support the channel. Cheers, Dr. Grande!
He will need a therapist
The parents know exactly what happened to Madeleine.....they somehow knew she was not coming home and instead of begging for the return of their daughter, they talked about how difficult of a child she was. Major red flags. Not to mention the dog smelling a body behind their couch and in their rental car.
Chandra Cox exactly.!!!
yes!!! something happened, they gave her too much "sleeping medicine", she died, they got rid of her.. I also remember that there was her dna or even blood? in that rental car. something is very off with the parents!
I AGREE! Also, the parents' immediate first statements & body language, analyzed by many experts, were as those of people who'd accepted her death, not striving to encourage others to help find her.

@@ichdieLivi ..
Dr. Grande, you’re correct. Everyone failed Madeleine. Thank you for this excellent analysis and truth telling piece. You, my friend, did not fail Madeleine.
"Those traits don't go away"... Preach, Dr G
This is so painful. Poor wee one😖😣
Whats a wee one?
@@liyaxo4560 A small child😣
Beyond sad. Totally heart breaking.
I am following this horrible incident since the day it happened and very much upset for this little girl and always praying for her safe return. Her parents suffer whole life with pain. This case must be solved
Those parents really did a disservice to their children. They are paying dearly for it but poor Madeline seems to have paid the ultimate price. I have two kids, 5,5 and 7. I would never leave them alone with the door unlocked in another place. It seems that they have checked all the boxes for poor decisions.
But you might sit outside in the backyard with neighbors while the kids were asleep, right? And if you lived in a small town, the front door might even be unlocked. Someone could come in the front door and take a child while you were in the back yard. There is a different perspective in other countries and they could see the door from the restaurant. Yes, they made a terrible mistake, but parenting norms are vastly different outside of the USA.
@@wombatnumbat989 they could not see the door from the restaurant. Over the years, many people have argued that things are different in Europe or in England and so on and so forth. The times were not so different. It wasn’t the fifties or the sixties. It was 2007 and in a foreign country. I live in Greece and here the vast majority of the people would never leave the door unlocked and they definitely wouldn’t leave a 4 year old and two 2 year olds in a house alone. Even if your mind doesn’t go to kidnapping, it goes to all kinds of accidents that could occur when kids that cannot protect themselves stay home alone. But, I do agree with you with the thing that you might be implying. One can never know the poor decisions that he could make, until he makes them. Still, leaving those kids alone, drugged and unsupervised is very irresponsible, especially since the hotel had a nanny service.
@@Yolanda8419 I haven't seen or heard any evidence that they were drugging their children. I personally would never make accusations like that. They may not have made good choices, but there is nothing to say they didn't love those children. I haven't actually been to the restaurant (have you?) so I am not sure what they could or couldn't see, but from what I read I got the impression that they could see the apartment. Where I have visited in Greece is not at all as safe a place as where I live in Europe. There are many variables and the nicest places have bad parts of town as well. Yes, they made poor choices and I'm sure they've regretted their decisions every single day. It's a horrible tragedy and I feel they've been unfairly vilified for years. Their daughter was a victim and they were victims as well, even if they did wrong. I was once at a small party and we were generally in the front room and on the front porch... 2 guys came in the back door and stole everyone's bags/keys/wallets. Yes, it was a lapse in judgement that the back door was unlocked but it doesn't mean people deserved to have their stuff stolen. Whatever poor decisions they made, they didn't deserve this and neither did the girl. It's a tragedy. People tend to blame the victims/parents because it reassures us that it could never happen to ME/MY FAMILY.
@@wombatnumbat989 I went back to the case and checked and it looks like you are right. I was certain, I had read they gave kinda like sleeping pill to Madeline but I can find it nowhere so I must have read some kind of ‘Fake news” report. As for the door, the Netflix documentary I had watched said it was not visible from the restaurant. You are right about the different parts of all towns. In Athens, there are good and bad neighborhoods but in the city, we always lock the doors. Anyway, it’s not about what people do or don’t do, in my humble opinion. They paid a very deep price for these decisions but I cannot forget that poor baby, and what may have happened to her. It is a very disturbing case, that makes me wanna hug my kids.
@@Yolanda8419 Indeed, VERY big hugs!
I find your vids legit af- very informative and delivered without the histrionics
I like the way this discussion was wrapped up with sensitivity and compassion towards the victims.,
Oversight by the criminal justice seems endemic. Hamstrung by red tape and human error.
You've convinced me with your theory. This is the first time I've considered anyone a real suspect in this case.
Thank you for this video. I had no idea there was an update on this story. I think about this sweet child often.
You’re right, no justice for Madeleine at all. Shameful 💯
I still feel so sorry for the parents. They did make a very big mistake and they are paying for it big time. They should set an example for other parents.
I agree. They are paying a huge price for their stupidity. But I just cannot believe the absolute incompetence of the police, both in Portugal and Germany. The authorities should set an example for common sense and do their jobs properly and with decency toward the victim.
@@rose5566 Christian Breuckner has got nothing to do with the disappearance of Madeleine McCann.
To be fair, they /are/ setting an example for other Parents! "Don't do as we do; otherwise, this will happen". So much about this case seems artificial, it could be some sort of weird public information broadcast played out as if real.
@@ruthbashford3176 Still peddling your nonsense Ruth?
Your summary touched me so much. I think that you stand out in treatening Madeleine as a subject and not only an object.
I just can't get over the idea of leaving small children in an unlocked apartment/condo/hotel whatever in a foreign country. It literally boggles my mind. Who can be that stupid?!
A selfish, self-centered parent, who needs to "have fun".
I know it would make me feel anxious. I would be sitting in the restaurant worrying about them.
Educated derelicts..
Divine Katalin is right, these were professional elites. These bozos have the nerve to want to be in control over you and others. Mommy and Daddy bought them their grades in school all the way until post doctorates. I guarantee it.
@@Skitdora2010 You just may be right.💜
Dr. Grande working the double shift today!
As usual, this was a very well done and informative analysis of an interesting case. Thank you for sharing your expertise. I love to watch your videos!
I'm neither an expert on the judicial system nor the area of mental health analysis & treatment in Germany. But as a German, having lived in Germany for the most part of my life, I know some things about and have had my experiences with both. I think you're 100% right in viewing both areas critically. I think, we have great troubles with our judicial and executive branches. Maybe due to our history, we are rather liberal, and our system always gives the potential perpetrator the benefit of a doubt. Sentences are usually rather easy. Especially with more severe crimes, such as manslaughter or rape, sentences over here are often shockingly low. In comparison to U.S. standards, German law-and the way it's being executed- is extremely soft. Clearly, there are good reasons for this humanitarian approach, but in many cases it can bear considerable danger for the community. And it certainly sends out the wrong signals.
Also, according to the authorities, there's always a severe lack of personnel on every level, which causes a lot of problems and neglect of responsibility in many areas.
Same with the mental health branch. From my personal experience, there are not nearly enough people or institutions to deal with the challenges at hand. Also, the level of knowledge and expertise leaves very much to desire and is generally outdated. As far as I'm concerned, Germany is a mental health wasteland, and it doesn't surprise me one bit, that the authorities weren't equipped to analyze, categorize and treat Christian Brückner according to his true personality and his well recorded criminal history. It's a shame.
On a side note: As a dad of a 2 1/2 year old, it's beyond me, how a whole group of allegedly educated adults chose to leave their little children unattended at night in order to go out drinking and having dinner. Priorities.
I just wonder how long this nonsense with Christian Breuckner can go on for. It is two years in June that Wolters made the extraordinary public claim that Brueckner was a 'prime suspect' in the Madeleine McCann case and since them nothing except more ridiculous media accusations against Breuckner. Anyone who has studied the Madeleine McCann case are aware that the McCanns know exactly what happened to their daughter and where her body is. At the moment Wolters and the German authorities are looking like right prats!
It kills me too imagine what this poor child went through.
Thanks for sharing this. Seems like it's solved, but so many failings to protect that innocent life. So sad.
The Portuguese police solved this case in 2007 and it has NOTHING to do with Christian Breuckner.
Thank you Dr Grande, this is such a sad ending , I always hoped someone who wanted a child to raise stole her & after 10 or so years, she would find out & come forward.
Rip little one.🥀
I could never leave my little one in an unlocked vacation suite. You NEVER know when they might need you. They wake up for SO MANY REASONS. I would imagine how scary it would be to be so little and theres nobody there to comfort you. Not to mention the door are unlocked. A 3 yr old could possibly wander off
Very informative and sensible analysis. Poor, poor child, what terrible suffering. As you say the little girl was not protected and failed by so many. Hope Brueckner is kept in jail forever, as he is so highly dangerous to those around him. Feel compassion for the parents who although highly intelligent, failed in good sense in practical child protection. Could it be they thought 'this could never happen to us'?, Heartbreaking for them to realise they failed to protect their precious little girl. Heaven only knows how they are coping, should imagine their two other children are highly protected and of course loved as was Madeleine. A horrible, tragic lesson learned and a warning to all parents.
Christian Brueckner is due to be released from prison in 2026 unless he faces further charges One crime he will never be charged with is the abduction and murder of Madeleine McCann because he didn't do it - no-one did.
They were offered baby sitting services at the resort and refused.
The resort had a free Night Crèche open til 11.30. They gave 2 reasons at the time for not using it , the first was disrupting their routine. The second, which they then went with going forward was 'we didn't want to leave them with strangers'. But the day creche strangers were fine: their children were there all day every day. The other couples used it mornings only.
thats strange either they were being cheap or its suspicious
The problem is do you trust the babysitters?
@@shelteredsparrow2736 They were hotel baby sitters, not anonymous people from the streets.
@@mbd6054 I would still be really nervous about leaving my children with them
what ⬆️ Grande Fam!! i hope everyone is doing well and knowing we have consistent comrade, education, and joy every day the Dr. posts!! 🤗🎭👀🔥❤️ Glad you’re here for it!
Love❤️u Dr Grande, so nice and peaceful too listens 2. You are always, talking about fascinating subjects.
I know there was an interception of a message in Arabic shortly after her disappearance, which referred to "the little blonde girl, a German man, and a ferry to Morocco "
Strange!
That was a really powerful ending, Dr. Grande. Such a tragic story. Thanks for your take.
Thank you so much for the update. This case is very close to my heart and I have been following it for years. Even though that guilt will never go away, I hope her parents find some sense of closure with these new findings. They have paid the ultimate price for their mistake that’s for sure. This was a true horror story.
Thank you so much Dr. Grande.❤️
finally a reasonable comment. thank you
Yes, a reasonable comment. I agree. I've seen a documentary with all of this same info about 6 months ago. Madeline's parents are suffering greatly. I hope this person is arrested soon. ❤
@@JustDr.S when they released brueckners name first time in german news media last year he was already in jail for other crimes
@@JustDr.S It's time Brueckner sued the German prosecutor, Wolters for declaring him guilty of a crime three years ago and still no charges.
In fact he would probably have more luck at the ECHR than the McCanns did. Justice delayed is justice denied.
Even paedophiles should not be accused of crimes they haven't committed especially when there is no evidence against them.
Have I missed something, but where is the hard evidence against the suspect? Is there enough to charge him? I cant se that. My husband is pediatrician and he said at that time that parents who also are doctors knows how dangerous it is to leave small children alone (for example there was a pool between the apartment and the restaurang if I remember correctly) because of all de damages they have seen at the hospital. Our family could not have a bunk bed because of risk for headtrauma. But of course, this is horrible horrible and horrible tragic.
Excellent analysis of the available information of the case.
The parents were careless and irresponsible. Their bad decisions to leave the kids unattended and unsecured contributed to poor madeline's disappearance. Strongly believed they should have been charged.
I agree.
If they were ordinary working-class people they would have been.
I remember a discussion about this case in one of my psychology classes years ago. I said that could not believe a parent would leave their young children unattended. Especially in a foreign country. To my surprise my teacher told me that we shouldn't judge and that she had done the same on holiday. Who does that?! Even if you're leaving them at home where you know your neighbors, you don't leave 3 toddlers at home alone.
You’re only pretending to care about children. You don’t care if their other children read your comments and it causes them distress, if you’re honest, you’d be pleased if it caused them harm.
Jesus, have a heart...can you not forgive these strangers for a horrific mistake they made that cost them the life of their much wanted, adored daughter Madeline? I strongly believe what they have suffered with losing their child, is punishment enough...and the years of being accused of her murder...what more punishment would you suggest?
My guess would be they have video/pics of Madeleine in his "collection", but unless he actually filmed himself, you can't prove that he was the one behind the camera. Hence, they're unable to press charges. He doesn't seem capable of rehab, and is perpetrating the most heinous crimes. I hope they find a way to lock him up and throw away the key.
Very good point, Purple.
They did find those despicable videos around his dwelling but as you say no firm evidence.
The poor little lamb.
That is probably what they have and have proof she is dead also.
He was heard to have said it was good that she died.
What a vile ,monster.
Hops he rots in gaol for many years.
The German Police are very competent, I would imagine and they must be pretty sure of their facts.
I think the Mc Canns lawyer said whatever you have show the parents but maybe that is going too far and some day they will have accept she is gone.
But what would he be video-taping other than what he was doing to the victims? So he would indeed appear in them. Regular folks video-tape themselves without the need of a separate 'cameraman'.
In fact, Dr. Grande says that the video of the older woman led to his conviction for the crimes against her.
If they put him in the jail's general population, pretty soon they won't need a key.
There was a video I saw here on yt where a woman and her forensic team work on ID’ing the scum from sick videos like these. They do it by attempting to match identifying features on any visible body parts on camera, like their hands for example, and look for scars, moles, etc and try to match them with a suspect. There is still hope any videos in his possession can be pinned on him.
Edit: oops someone already said this 😅
@@lesleythompson6801 Ever since I heard the German police interview, I have thought that they had recovered video or pictures of Madeline from a storage cache or a computer drive belonging to the murderer. It is possible that when the police tipped their hand and sent him the letter to come in and answer questions, it gave him a warning his posessions would be searched and he tried to destroy the incriminating evidence. Perhaps the little that was left was damaged and mostly destroyed evidence. Good enough to confirm the investigator’s own suspicions, but not good enough for court.
He had a hidden cellar 10 ft deep in his home in Germany, is it not possible he would’ve kidnapped Madeleine and taken her to Germany? I’m so mind boggled, he lived in a van right in Praia de Luz. I’m still bewildered how this case isn’t solved still, just goes on and on.
Thanks for your upload and efforts.
That yucca has a busier social life than I do!
I feel called out.
I suspect that background is simulated. 😏
😂😂😂
When my son was 14 I wouldn't even leave him alone in our home to run to the super market....What really gets me is they made plenty of money to hire a nanny. They failed to protect their daughter so they could have fun.
Wow thats extreme. Is he a psychopath by now, stealing children out of their rooms?
14 is too much. When do they learn to function as adults if they are never allowed to do anything on their own until 18?
People saying not leaving a 14-year-old alone is extreme but in the UK, although there is no law set as to what age a child can be left alone, it is recommended by the NSPCC that children under 12 should not be left in the home alone at all and children under 16 should not be left home alone at night. I have also read comments saying that in Europe attitudes are different and people do leave their children home alone. The McCann's are British and should be aware of the above guidelines. It is not normal behaviour in the UK to leave young children alone! I personally don't know anyone that has left a child younger than 10 alone for any length of time, let alone infants.
My mom didn’t leave me and my sisters home alone (at all) until I was at least 11. I have two younger sisters and when I was 11 they’d have been 9 and 7, at the time I was heavily doing martial arts but had no knowledge of first aid or how to cook or anything. We also had a dog who was the sweetest thing but would have tried to befriend an intruder instead of protect us. I probably couldnt have done anything except call 911 if someone broke in. At least by the time I was 14 I was left home alone… sometimes for long periods of time too. 14 year olds are more than capable of protecting themselves when left home alone, and they at least have a concept of locking doors and not talking to strangers and making makeshift weapons if need be
Your 14 year old probably hates you. That's smothering behavior.
What happens when they want their drivers licence in 2 years? You gunna insist on sitting in the passenger seat wherever they go. What about in 4 years when they go to college and move into student housing? You gunna move in too?
You think you're bragging about what a good Mom you are but you're really just showing everyone what a toxic parent you are.
Let your teenager be alone for 5 seconds.
On May 4th 2007, a McCann family member told the press, that the noisy, metal window shutter, had been "jemmied" open, which gave much early impetus to the abduction story. But when the police found there was no evidence at all of this forced window entry, the McCanns decided to then say that they left the door unlocked, which they never initially mentioned. But the McCanns still persisted with the difficult, time consuming, noisy window departure story, by the "abductor", which makes no sense with the unlocked door entry.
As a mother of 2 girls and 2 boys this is my nightmare. NOTHING is more important than their safety and my personal life can wait. Yes, Madeline was forgotten in all that. 💚
Thanks for your analysis doc. This is such a tragic case. Your thoughts are always appreciated Dr Grande! And it is nice to get a bonus video today😉💙💙
I’ve always follow this case, I can’t comprehend why this smart couple would leave their small kids alone in a H-O-T-E-L room in a foreign land. They should have brought a nanny. This is hard to swallow. Thanks for the update.
I love your analysis on this case. It’s been lingering on so long and all of us wondering what happened to this precious girl. It breaks my heart. Dr. Grande you were so sweet speaking on this horrible case. 😢
Fair analysis Doc!
People who work in any kind of Justice Department need to have a sense of urgency !
Can't wait to see you reach 1M subs Dr. G! Thank you for making these videos and sharing your insight with us.
Wow Doc! 2 videos in 1 day!
So I live in Alabama , there are cases here where a poor mother left her children alone to go to work . Still doing all the same things such as checking on the children frequently. They all went to jail for neglect. The parents are ultimately to blame for all of this . Yes the actual perpetrator needs to be held accountable but so so the parents and I am pissed off that they have not
Two of the McCanns friends also doctors, had earlier gone on holiday with these friends and had said they were very concerned about the way these children particularly Madeleine was talked about in graphic sexualised ways. They refused to go with them again. They also were bathing each other’s children. .The strange men in the area is an idea that is completely new. Someone looking like Gerry McCann was seen by an English couple carrying a limp child a few hours after the reported missing child. There are many elements to this that you are not aware of DR Grande. If you tune in to Shaun Attwoods channel, he and Sonia Poulton have all the information..
His eyes are scary. They make me uncomfortable.
I agree. They don’t line up right. Something is definitely “off”.
@@beeimaginative
When somone is cut off from their Soul you can see it in their eyes. 😳
I don’t think there is one thing that could be said or done to the McCanns that would match having to live with the mistake they made. God willing, Madeleine is at peace now. Her parents never will be. My wish is that the crime will be solved and the McCanns will be left alone.
I think it's all a big fast The parents did it at the end of the day MADELEINE was the poor little child that suffered God bless herxx
they look like they do, though
I am German and I can assure you that the justice system over here is indeed generous. If you get a life sentence for example, you most likely will be in jail for 15 years and that's it. The prisons also offer a lot of rehabilitation programs and therapy and education. While on the one hand I think it's good to try and bring people back into society, on the other hand I think it is wrong to give them multiple chances again and again, especially when there are crimes against children involved. We also always have discussions about sentencing when it comes to sexual assaults and rape. The offenders often only get a probation sentence. So as you can see, while there is a great system in place, there are also some aspects which are worth discussing and I am sure this one is also such a case with the history of this man...
Btw, I can assure you that no one over here knows about this guy and the investigation - at least, I am not aware that it has appeared on the news. If so, it has been barely mentioned.
This case is so strange that I can't really come to a conclusion. Whilst it is most likely that this man took her, the parents are guilty of neglecting their children which makes this all incredibily difficult to judge.
What that little girl must have gone through on the 3rd of May/beyond is unthinkable.
A lot of people I see, have rung your bell! Wow 😳
Thank you for the follow up. She's been in American hearts for a long long time!
Blessings to you and yours Doctor 😊
Thank you very much, Dr. Grande, for mentioning this sad crime case because here in Germany the most people do not know who the suspect Christian Brückner is because our Mainstream media unfortunately does not show the latest news about the tragedy in general. We really live in a weird country when it comes to safety of children. I am happy for your hard work. Dankeschön, Dr. Grande❣❤
That’s awful. Why is that? Do Germany not want the negative press?
I disagree. Most people do know who Christian Brückner is (the case was even in the most famous True Crime Show in Germany, Aktenzeichen XY and all over the Bild Zeitung for weeks). But most people in Germany do not know the parents were actually suspects in Portugal until the British Government intervened and the leading detective Gonzalo Amaral was removed from the case. But do you not wonder, why the alleged murderer has still not been charged to today? He is just a scapegoat.
Christian breuckner has absolutely NOTHING TO DO WITH THIS
Humanimal you sound a little unhinged
@@twocents7495 thanks!
One of your best, Dr. Powerful summary.
Ok I will definitely have nightmares after seeing his picture!
No no something is ahra. I personally can't imagine leaving my kids in my own house in my own country leaving them alone at all until like maby 13 or 14 years old
With a cell phone. After they've recited the rules back to me. For 10 minutes to start with.
I get what you're saying but that equates to poor parenting (maybe) and nothing else.
@@Throatzillaaa It's neglect, which is a crime.
wow, seems to me a bit too old to leave a child first time alone at that age
Yeah
I clicked on this so fast....with so much going on I didn't now a suspect had been identified. Dr. Grande you are very consistent and timely with your videos, and always up on the latest events. I appreciate this update. 🙂
Brilliant analysis. Succinct and straightforward. Remarkable that I the authorities were not in light of what information was available.
I agree with your opinions, it's a sad analogy. Parents should be held accountable for leaving children alone, and Police should produce evidence they already have. The family need closure, which is being denied.
Even if they weren't worried about anyone taking their children what if the children got hurt or injured in some way? Or if they woke up scared because they were alone in a strange house? And they are both medical doctors!! Absolutely astounding that they could make this kind of decision. I'll always have compassion for them but I'll never understand it.
My same exact thoughts. Unfortunately book smart people are the ones who lack the most common sense.
@@therealdeal3672 I said that wrong, I left out the word “some”. I agree, there should not be an all generalization
A toddler could wander off in search of her parents and have an accident. What if there had been a fire?
Our fire started.
In an interview Kate said Madeleine asked her parents the day before, why didn't you come last night when I was crying? So they knew she had woken up scared previously, and still left them alone! Total negligence and stupidity!
Thank you for this update Dr. Grande. Always enjoy your content.
Thanks for shedding further light on this disturbing case. I wonder if on the day after Madeleine’s disappearance, if the police called Brueckner and let him know that they’d be stopping by to see how he was doing?
I lived in Germany for a year in the 1990s. I was shocked that their criminal justice system was as lenient as it is compared to the US. While I don't agree with our focus on punishment over rehabilitation in the US, I also agree with Dr. Grande that there's a such thing as a tendency and that personality patterns could contribute to serial criminality.
I am shocked that in Germany a public prosecutor can publicly pronounce someone guilty of a crime when there is absolutely no evidence against them
