McCann suspect ‘pre-convicted’ in rape trial – lawyer
The prime suspect in the disappearance of Madeleine McCann has been described as being “pre-convicted” in a separate rape trial, according to his lawyer.
The suspect, who has not been officially named by authorities, is currently serving a prison sentence for an unrelated crime. His lawyer has claimed that his client has already been judged and convicted in the court of public opinion, and that this prejudice could impact any future trial related to the McCann case.
The disappearance of Madeleine McCann from a holiday apartment in Portugal in 2007 has been one of the most high-profile missing persons cases in recent years. The investigation into her disappearance has spanned over a decade, with numerous suspects and leads being followed up.
Despite the claims made by the suspect’s lawyer, authorities have reiterated that the investigation into Madeleine McCann’s disappearance remains ongoing, and that they are committed to finding out the truth about what happened to her.
