Hello - My name is Christina Zettner and I live in the US. Since Madeleine disappeared I have been emailing her poster to many contacts throughout Europe
and North Africa (hotels, car rentals, ports, etc). I have been contacted by one of the people in Italy who received my email and poster. I have urged him to contact the Portuguese and UK POlice but in case he does not, I am forwarding his message to you. He refers to a previous message but I do not recall receiving one because of course, I would have forwarded it to the campaign. I am sending the full text of the email and the person's contact information. It sounds legitimate because the gentleman indicates he is a former Policeman with contacts on the Police Force. He also provides a telephone contact number and his email address is
'hostlebrindisi@xxxxxxx.com' . My contact information is Christina Zettner, 'xxxx' Axxxxx Dxxxx, Wxxx Cxxxxxx, Pennsylvania, US 19380 phone 484-80x-xxxx.
Email Text : Hi again, I wrote to you a few months ago and I am writing to reassure you that although the news seem to have forgotton about "little one" I haven't and I keep on looking and spreading the word. I have a picture in the hall of my hostel and one in the window of the van I use for customers transport. There's one thing I would like to inform you about. A few weeks ago, at one of the traffic lights in Brindisi (my city) I thought I saw a little girl, blond, definitely not Italian, about 1 metre tall. What got my attention was a "sad look" on her face (normally those children are shameless and invasive), she was just walking around between cars like beggars do, but not talking to anyone. There were a few adults , I think Romanians, in the area, begging as well, they were (i think pretending to be crippled in order to get the drivers to give some money). There was also a little boy about 8 or 9, the difference was that the boy looked like he belonged with them, the little girl didn't. If those people were the parents, the girl didn't look like she was the daughter of any of them. Since there have been a lot of them in the area, at first I didn't pay a lot of attention to it, but once I got back to the hostel and saw Madeleine's picture.... a horrendous thought came to my mind. I drove back to the same traffic light (with the intention of personally "hurt" any adult with that girl if I would have seen the birth mark in her eye and responded to English Language) but by the time I got back there they were all gone. I am a former Policeman, so of course I informed personally all my former colleagues (still in active duty) but although we've all been there often, there hasn't been any traces of those people ever since. I never until now wrote to you about this because I didn't want to sound like those people looking for fame that normally get in the way of investigations, at least until I would have had more reliable information. I am passing on what I know in case at the time of the abduction, there were similar individuals (Romanians and gypsies) in the area and also because Brindisi is a port mainly connected to Greece, Albania and Turkey (loads of Romanians travel by car to those countries), and there are a lot of bus direct lines to Romania, Bulgaria etc. I hope this information can be of some help. Don't hesitate to call me if you have any questions.
