Julia Faustyna -a 21-year-old Polish girl- thinks she may be Madeleine McCann, the British girl who disappeared on May 3, 2007 of the tourist apartment where he was staying with his parents in the Algarve (Portugal). The girl has created an Instagram profile, which followers have risen like foam -more than 600,000, in a few days-, with the aim of giving visibility to its history.
He also explains his arguments through TikTok. Videos of him have gone viral. According to him, he assures, he previously turned to the investigators of the case and also to the police of his country. But he couldn’t get them to pay him the slightest attention. She demands that they practice DNA testingto be sure if it’s little Maddie or not.
The young woman has found physical similarities that lead her to believe so, beyond the fact that they are both blondes with light eyes. Between them, a hereditary defect that both one and the other have in the right iris. A rare ocular coloboma (fracture or lack of tissue) that manifests as a dark spot that would appear in the same location.
In addition, some freckles and moles would coincide, on the left cheek and on the leg. And there would be a certain resemblance between her teeth, her chin and her ears, as reflected in the comparisons that the girl has published in her profiles. However, it should be noted that also there are pieces that don’t fit in the puzzle Perhaps the most prominent is age.
Madeleine would be 19 years old today, and not the 21 that Julia has. Although, in this regard, the Polish girl points out that she has not been able to obtain a birth certificate and that her family does not give her the information she has requested about her childhood. Her memories are vague due to the trauma caused by the abuse of a pedophile that she suffered as a child.
The most disturbing test
Undoubtedly, the most disturbing piece of evidence that Julia presents as indicating that her identity would actually be that of the missing girl is that the person who sexually abused her when she was “a German pedophile who was a suspect in the Madeleine McCann investigation”. He mentions him by first and last name: Martin Ney.
This is a serial killer who was linked to the disappearance of the little British girl and who was jailed in 2012 for having killed three minors and sexually abused more than forty. Supposedly -here the most striking part of his version- it would be about the son of his grandmother’s husband, Peter Ney.
Julia would have gone so far as to tell him that she knows that the prisoner is a suspect in Maddie’s case, and his reaction would have been that of punch him in the face. That is at least what the young Polish woman assures in a post on her Instagram profile, in which she details the reasons that make her think about the possibility that she could be her missing little girl.
no trace of his childhood
On the other hand, Julia assures that her family behaves strangely when she asks questions related to her childhood. “When I have had conversations with my parents, things don’t seem to add up and they always try to change the subject,” says the young woman.
his mother too would refuse to show you pictures from when I was pregnant with her or some medical evidence from her early life. She even claims that the little information she has been given about the stage in which she attended her kindergarten also does not match what she has been able to gather elsewhere.
His parents would have assured him that he was in the same center the entire period. However, she spoke with her teacher at the time and he would have told her that she joined in the last year. According to her testimony, would have entered in September 2007 (a few months after the disappearance of the minor) and would have ended in July 2008. He would also have told her that at that time he had frequent “hysterical and crying attacks.”
The state of the investigation
To this day, the UK Metropolitan Police still consider Madeleine to be “missing”, given that they do not have conclusive evidence of her possible death. For its part, the Prosecutor’s Office of the city of Braunschweig (Germany) left the little girl for dead in June 2020.
Last April, Christian Brueckner was formally charged with the disappearance of the little one At the time, the suspect – a 43-year-old German citizen – was in jail for drug trafficking and had been convicted several times for child abuse.
However, the investigation does not finish bearing fruit and the disappearance of the minor remains a mystery. Hence, the little girl’s parents continue to do the impossible to find any clue that will lead them to her. In fact, British media say they would be willing to undergo genetic tests to find out if Julia is Maddie.
