About Prime Suspect
After a colleague suffers a near-fatal heart attack, Detective Chief Inspector Jane Tennison takes over an investigation into the murder of Delia Mornay, a young prostitute. The case is challenging enough in its own right, since Jane quickly determines that there is very little tangible evidence against the main suspect, an ex-convict. Worse, however, she suspects there is a cover-up going on in her department, where her male team of investigators isn't making a secret of their displeasure to be working for a woman. After a second body is discovered, what started as a single murder inquiry turns into an investigation stretching back over 10 years, forcing Jane to devote every waking hour to the case and taking a toll on her home life with her recently divorced live-in lover, Peter Rawlins. … MORE

Unrelated charges against suspect in Madeleine McCann disappearance dropped
The Prime Suspect in The Disappearance of Madeleine Mccann will not face German charges for alleged rape and sexual abuse in a separate case.
Last Year , a court in The City of Braunschweig charged Christian Brueckner with five sexual offences.
But it now says it does not have jurisdiction because Brueckner last lived in a different part of Germany.
Brueckner has never been charged over Madeleine's disappearance and has denied any involvement.
In October 2022, evidence for additional allegations emerged during the McCann investigation.
Braunschweig's chief prosecutor charged Brueckner with five offences alleged to have been carried out between 2000 and 2017 in Portugal, including The Rape and the sexual abuse of Two Children .
The Five charges in full:
Although The Court in Braunschweig has dropped the case, it is understood Brueckner could still be charged with the same offences in a different court in Germany.
Originally the case was taken up in Braunschweig because that was the region where he was last officially registered.
But in reality, before moving to Portugal, he had been living in a caravan in The State of Saxony Anhalt.
It is expected that prosecutors in other parts of Germany will now decide whether to pursue the charges and stake a claim to jurisdiction.
Three-year-old Madeleine, from Rothley, Leicestershire, was On Holiday with her family at The Ocean Club in Praia da Luz, in Portugal's Algarve when she disappeared on 3 May 2007. Her whereabouts remain unknown.
Brueckner has never been charged over her disappearance.
The convicted sex offender is currently serving a seven-year sentence for rape which he committed in 2005 in Portugal.
