Madeleine McCann Disappearance
17 years of finding their daughter has been complete as the couple marked the 17th anniversary of the night their 3-year daughter, Madeleine McCann, vanished during a vacation in Praia da Luz, Portugal in 2007.
The duo wrote on their Find Madeleine website May 3, “It’s hard to even say that number without shaking our heads in disbelief, Whilst we are fortunate in many ways and able to live a relatively normal and enjoyable life now, the ‘living in limbo’ is still very unsettling. And the absence still aches.”
The statement also noted, “Your support continues to encourage us and bolsters our strength to keep going, We know the love and hope for Madeleine and the will to find her, even after so many years, remains, and we are truly thankful for that.”

The Story
The British origin couple were having their dinner at a restaurant about 100 yards away from their kids the night Madeleine McCann went missing at a resort in Portugal. Following that night, Kate periodically checked on their kids. She entered the room after 10 p.m. and found window was open. She saw their then 2-year-old twins asleep while Madeleine’s cot was empty.
According to BBC, German authorities identified Christian Brückner, now 47, as a suspect. Christian has been already serving a seven year prison sentence for rape in Praia da Luz. However, denied any involvement in the Madeleine’s disappearance case and therefore has never been charged as well.
