A individual accused with pursuing Kate McCann reportedly deposited her a phone message which posed: "imagine I am Madeleine?"
The defendant, twenty-four, who a jury heard has persistently asserted she was the missing Madeleine McCann, and Karen Spragg are standing trial indicted with stalking Kate and Gerry McCann between June 2022 and February the current year.
On Monday, the tribunal was told communication data and data retrieved from phones documented Ms Wandelt persistently requesting Madeleine's mother for a DNA test over the past two years.
Madeleine's case in 2007 - at the age of three during a family holiday in Portugal - is one of the most publicized child disappearance cases and remains unresolved.
'I Am Not Seeking Money'
A separate voicemail, played in court, captured Ms Wandelt declaring: "I know I'm heavy and plain like Madeleine used to be, but I know what I know."
While a separate message of Ms Wandelt's monologues with Mrs McCann's recording stated: "What if there is a slight possibility that I'm her? What then? Wouldn't that be crucial for you?"
"I am not seeking money, I possess a living here in Poland, I just want to know," the recording stated.
The tribunal was informed that by means of emails, mobile messages and phone calls, Ms Wandelt demanded a DNA test, sent youth pictures to her phone in a bid to demonstrate a likeness to Mrs McCann's vanished daughter, and stated to have "memories" from a early life with the McCanns.
Robert Jones, a data specialist with law enforcement who compiled the information, told the court there "seemed to lack any answers" from Mrs McCann.
Ms Wandelt also contacted family friends of the McCanns, according to the communication logs.
On October 9th, 2024, the father answered a phone call from Ms Wandelt to his wife's phone, declaring she had "the wrong phone."
That day Ms Wandelt left a recording on Mrs McCann's recording saying "I will persist and I will prove my claim."
The court heard Mrs Spragg struck up a relationship via internet with Ms Wandelt before accompanying her on a trip to the McCanns' property in Leicestershire in that winter.
Communication data showed Mrs Spragg had communicated through WhatsApp to Mrs McCann to say the news outlets had characterized Ms Wandelt as "mentally unstable" but that she ought to be treated respectfully in the months leading up to the visit to the village, that area, in last December.
The court learned message exchanges between the two defendants, in November 2024, discussing trying to get Mrs McCann's DNA samples from her garbage or from utensils at a dining venue.
"We have to take action," Mrs Spragg advised Ms Wandelt.
On the evening of the trip to their home, the defendant sent a communication which said: "We're currently sat near the McCanns' residence with our vehicle dark like investigators. I wanted to accomplish this with another person I never thought I would be involved in this with the McCanns."
The case ongoing.
