What Happened to Madeleine McCann? - Part 4 - The Sound of Crime

Description
Months after Madeleine goes missing, Brian Kennedy, a wealthy Brit hired Metedo 3 to help solve the disappearance. Metedo 3 dove in and started infiltrating the underworld of pedophiles and the dark web. Even though they put a lot of work into the case, they came up with no solid leads and Brian fired them. Then he hired a very powerful American investigative company called Oakley International. The founder Kevin Halligen had assembled a dream team and they went to work. They went back to zero and looked at all the original sightings and work that had been done. During this time Gonzalo Amaral had written a book and it was released. A TV program was made from the book and both accused the parents of covering up the accidental death of Madeleine. It changed the minds of many of the Portuguese public. In 2009, a court sided with the McCanns and banned the continued distribution of the book and TV program. Brian was receiving huge bills from Oakley's investigation and he was starting to get suspicious. Oakley was making all kinds of claims that turned out to be useless. It was eventually discovered that Kevin Harrigen was a complete fraud and had done this kind of scam before. 18 months went by without any progress. The McCanns' hired another investigative team that came up with two (2) of the most significant sightings that had never been reported before. One was a woman who lived above them who saw a man steathly leaving the McCann apartment the afternoon before the disappearance. The other was a couple seen near Lagos, the port, early the next morning crossing a road with a baby in their arms. Finally, the McCanns convinced Scotland Yard and the local British police to take over the case. They made some significant progress identifying some sketchy men who had been hanging around the area. It seems they might have been associated with a trafficking ring. Six years later there still is not clear evidence of what happened to Madeleine McCann.
