New hope in the missing Rebecca Reusch case: Police are expanding their investigation!

The search for Rebecca Reusch, who has been missing since 2019, continues unabated under the eyes of the Berlin police. As fr.de reports, the case is still being actively processed, although it is fraught with many questions and challenges. Rebecca, who was only 15 years old at the time, mysteriously disappeared from her sister's house in Berlin-Britz.

Despite the time that has passed since then, the case is not considered a cold case. Rather, there are new developments and searches on properties in Brandenburg, especially the grandmother of the main suspect, her brother-in-law Florian R. A cadaver dog was used to find possible evidence. “The police work with probabilities,” says criminal scientist Christian Matzdorf, emphasizing that the investigations continue to progress in the shadows. With new findings, the entire investigative structure could change and lead to future measures.

Current searches and investigations

The investigators are currently concentrating on two properties in Brandenburg that are closely linked to the main suspect. A spokesman for the public prosecutor's office, Michael Petzold, made it clear that it was assumed that Rebecca did not leave her brother-in-law's house alive. It was only recently announced that house-to-house searches were being carried out and the police were evaluating clues. The public has been asked to report information about a pink Twingo that is linked to the case.

What is particularly noteworthy is the fact that investigations into construction sites and properties have been targeted again. Experts express surprise that some of these places are only now being investigated. There is reason for hope, however, as the searches may provide new answers to questions raised. The police have already received 50 tips from the public and are using drones, corpse detection dogs and ground radar.

The context of the investigation

Rebecca Reusch is not an isolated case in Germany, where almost 10,000 people are currently reported missing. According to Tagesschau, between 200 and 300 new searches are recorded every day. About half of these cases are resolved within the first week, while only three percent remain unsolved for more than a year. The search for missing people is not only a legal but also an emotional issue that affects the country.

The background to the Rebecca Reusch case is not only tragic for the family affected, but also a clear sign of the complexity and seriousness of missing person cases in Germany. The investigation shows how difficult it is to gain clarity and calm and highlights the importance of public participation in such cases. The police are appealing to everyone to provide information and possibly bring about a turn in the investigation.
