A female accused with harassing Kate McCann allegedly recorded her a recorded message which posed: "suppose I am Madeleine?"

The defendant, 24, who court testimony revealed has repeatedly declared she was the missing Madeleine McCann, and Karen Spragg are standing trial indicted with stalking Kate and Gerry McCann from June 2022 and February this year.

On Monday, Leicester Crown Court was told phone records and data retrieved from phones documented Ms Wandelt persistently demanding Madeleine's mother for a genetic test during 2023 and 2024.

Madeleine's vanishing in 2007 - at the age of three during a trip in Portugal - is considered the most widely reported missing child cases and continues to be open.

'I Am Not Seeking Money'

One recorded message, presented in court, recorded Ms Wandelt declaring: "I know I'm fat and not pretty like Madeleine was, but I know what I know."

While one recording of Ms Wandelt's monologues with Mrs McCann's answerphone expressed: "What if there is a tiny probability that I am she? Then what? Wouldn't that be crucial for you?"

"I do not need money, I possess a living here in Poland, I just want to discover," the recording stated.

The jury was advised that via electronic messages, SMS messages and phone calls, Ms Wandelt asked for a genetic test, forwarded youth pictures to her phone in a effort to display a similarity to Mrs McCann's disappeared daughter, and asserted to have "recollections" from a youth with the McCanns.

The investigator, an investigator with the police force who collated the data, advised the court there "didn't appear to be any answers" from Mrs McCann.

Ms Wandelt also contacted close associates of the McCanns, according to the phone records.

On that date, Gerry McCann answered a phone call from Ms Wandelt to his wife's phone, stating she had "a wrong number."

On that occasion Ms Wandelt left a message on Mrs McCann's recording saying "I will continue and I intend to demonstrate my claim."

The court learned Mrs Spragg developed a connection through digital means with Ms Wandelt prior to joining her on a trip to the McCanns' home in the county in December 2024.

Communication data showed Mrs Spragg had communicated via WhatsApp to Mrs McCann to state the press had portrayed Ms Wandelt as "mentally unstable" but that she deserved to be taken seriously in the months before the appearance to Rothley, the county, in December 2024.

The court heard correspondence between the two accused, in November 2024, discussing attempting to acquire Mrs McCann's DNA samples from her garbage or from cutlery at a dining venue.

"We need to take action," the co-defendant informed Ms Wandelt.

On the evening of the visit to their home, Mrs Spragg dispatched a communication which stated: "We're currently positioned adjacent to the McCanns' residence with our vehicle dark like detectives. I wanted to achieve this with someone else I hadn't anticipated I would be doing that with the McCanns."

The case proceeds.
