Son Wayne, 40 (in 2009), who described his father as a “monster” who beat him savagely when he was a boy. Wayne later (Sept 2010) claimed to have received a deathbed confession from his father that Raymond knew Madeleine had been taken by gypsies. Wayne said he burned the letter (see below).
1963- 1968 - Raymond Hewlett arrested for a series of offences, ranging from burglary to firearms possession.
1971 - 1980
1972 - Hewlett jailed for one year after raping a 12-year-old girl he had lured into his car and knocked out with paint stripper. Served 12 months of an 18-month sentence. Upon release returned to Todmorden
1975 - Hewlett lived at Dineley Avenue, Todmorden, West Yorkshire - 10 miles from Rochdale - at the time of Lesley Molseed's murder.
1975 - October 2, 1975 - Lesley Molseed disappeared while running an errand for her mother near their home in Rochdale. On the day of Lesley's disappearance, Hewlett's turquoise Morris 1000 van was seen parked in the lay-by on the A672 Oldham-Halifax Road next to the isolated spot where Lesley's body was found. It had a tartan blanket (that Hewlett had stolen in Scotland) wrapped around its windscreen and side windows. Hewlett was linked to the crime scene by his ownership of a blue Morris 1000 van which matched descriptions given by 14 witnesses who saw one parked in a lay-by at Ripponden on the day of Lesley's abduction. Witness Christopher Coverdale saw a man with a girl matching Lesley's description walking up the hillside next to the lay-by.
1975 - October 2, 1975 - Hewlett's 15 year old girlfriend, Rosalee Dolan provided alibi for Raymond Hewlett. At the time she stated he had been with her in a park. In her later confession to police regarding her false statements, she stated that on October 2, 1975, Hewlett had actually arrived back in Todmorden at 5 pm and told her to provide him with a false alibi. She said that at the time she believed she was helping him cover up a car theft.
1975 - ~October 2, 1975 - Hewlett and Rosalee Dolan first fled to Burnley - stayed with two friends, Michael and John Goodall .Later they went to Liverpool and then fled to Ireland . (Some articles claim Hewlett left for Ireland the day after Lesley Molseed was murdered.)
1975 - October 5, 1975 - Lesley Molseed's body was found near Ripponden. She had been stabbed a dozen times with a knife. West Yorkshire police were in charge of investigation. The senior officer in charge was Detective Superintendent Dick Holland. Stefan Kiszko made a ‘confession’ to Dick Holland but later told how he had been terrified of Holland.
1975 - December 21, 1975 - Stefan Kiszko arrested by West Yorkshire Police. Three schoolgirls had claimed he had exposed himself to them. They later admitted to lying.
1976 - July 7, 1976 - Kiszko murder trial began under Sir Hugh Park. Kiszko was defended by David Waddington QC who later became Home Secretary in October 1989. Prosecuting QC, Peter Taylor later became Lord Chief Justice in 1992, the day after Kiszko was cleared of the murder. Kiszko claimed at trial that his confession was bullied out of him by the police.
Sheila Buckley, whose daughter Maxine played a major part in securing Kiszko's conviction, attacked the police for not arresting him earlier and told the Manchester Evening News that "Children are a lot safer now this monster has been put away". She demanded Kiszko's execution."...(Kiszko's) innocence could have been demonstrated at the trial. The pathologist who examined Molseed's clothes found traces of sperm, whereas the sample taken from Kiszko by the police contained no sperm. There was medical evidence that Kiszko had broken his ankle some months before the murder and, in view of that and his being overweight, he would have found it difficult to scale the slope to the murder spot. The sperm findings were suppressed by the police and never disclosed to the defence team or the jury: neither was the medical evidence of his broken ankle disclosed to the court."
1976 - July 21, 1976 - Kiszko was found guilty of the murder of Lesley Molseed and sentenced to life in prison. He served 16 years in various prisons before the miscarriage of justice was exposed. Kiszko was attacked numerous times in prison and developed schizophrenia. He was told he would be eligible for parole only if he confessed but continued to proclaim his innocence.
1976 - Mariana Schmucker (Hewlett's current wife) was born in Germany
1978 - Hewlett attempted to rape a 14-year-old girl. Hewlett held a gun to her head. Sentenced to four years - served 16 months
1978 - May 25, 1978 - Kiszko's appeal was thrown out. Lord Justice Bridge said "We can find no grounds whatsoever to condemn the jury's verdict of murder as in any way unsafe or unsatisfactory".
1980 - Hewlett left wife Susan Ginley for Anita Cox. They had two children.
1981 - 1990
1982 - Hewlett married Anita Cox. Reportedly Hewlett frequently viciously attacked Anita
Unknown dates - Hewlett lived in Telford, Shropshire UK
1984 - Stefan Kiszko's mother contacted JUSTICE, the UK human rights organisation which at the time investigated many miscarriages of justice.
1987 - Stefan Kiszko's mother was put in touch with Campbell Malone, who agreed to take a look at the Molseed case when it seemed almost certain that Kiszko would never be released.
1988 - Hewlett jailed for six years after the abduction of a 14-year-old newspaper delivery girl at knife-point in Northwich, Cheshire.
1990 - Hewlett granted home leave from Leicestershire's Stoken Prison and absconded.
1990 - Hewlett fled to Ireland. Identified as the attacker by forensic evidence and brought back to face trial in UK.
1991 - 2000
1991 - Early February - Campbell Malone, with the help of private detective Peter Jackson finally urged the Home Office to reopen the Stefan Kiszko case. It was referred back to the West Yorkshire Police. Det. Superintendent Trevor Wilkinson immediately found several glaring errors.
Kiszko's innocence was demonstrated conclusively through medical evidence; he had male hypogonadism, which rendered him infertile, contradicting forensic evidence obtained at the time of the murder. During his research, private detective Peter Jackson found someone who said correctly that Kiszko was seen tending his father's grave with an aunt. They said they couldn't understand why they hadn't been called to give evidence at the trial. Someone else said he was in a shop around the time of the murder. Then, the three females involved in the original conviction admitted that the evidence they gave which led to Kiszko's arrest and conviction was false, and that they had lied for "a laugh". They said that Kiszko hadn't exposed himself and hadn't been stalking them, but that they had seen a taxi driver (not Ronald Castree) urinating behind a bush on the day of Molseed's murder.
1991 - Hewlett rearrested in Britain when returned from Ireland. Hewlett was re-investigated for the Molseed murder and interviewed again while serving a six-year prison sentence for a sexual offence committed in 1988.
1992 - Stefan Kiszko cleared of Molseed murder. On January 8, 1992 Kiszko was moved from Ashworth to Prestwich Hospital. Despite the now overwhelming and obvious evidence that Kiszko was innocent, the West Yorkshire police and the forensic scientist, Ronald Outteridge, refused to apologise to Kiszko for his wrongful conviction. Outteridge, the three then teenage girls and Peter Taylor, who prosecuted him, refused to comment at all, but never at any point did any of them offer any apologies, nor did Maxine Buckley's mother Sheila. The West Yorkshire Police still tried to justify the position they took in 1975, while accepting and admitting they were wrong.
~1991 - 1997 - Hewlett kept on the move in Ireland - seen in Cork, Donegal, Cavan, Sligo, Louth and Fermanagh. Visited at least nine counties. Spotted in Dublin, Kildare, Louth, Laois and Westmeath. Alleged to have been part of a network of paedophiles that would hide out throughout Northern Ireland and the Republic. Took particular interest in Fermanagh because of its close proximity with the Irish border
Lived in Urris, Inishowen for an unknown time. "Inishowen councillor, Padraig MacLochlainn, confirmed the sex pest had lived in Inishowen. He said: "He had lived in the area, in Urris for a while. "This was in recent years, but I am not sure how long he lived in the area. "The person I was speaking to did confirm this. "People may not have been aware of his history he lived there for a while and then moved on."
1990's - Date unknown - Hewlett lived in Enniskillen. Hewlett caused alarm with local schools sending letters home to parents.

It was alleged they had destroyed the forensic evidence which could have proved the innocence of Stefan and the guilt of the real murderer. They also withheld statements from the defence, which proved the whereabouts of Stefan on the day of the murder.
1995 - May 1, 1995 - Magistrate Jane Hayward prevented the case Holland/Outteridge case from proceeding citing that because of the death of Jack Dibb the two remaining defendants could not receive a fair trial (it was called "abuse of process").

2007 - May 3, 2007 - Madeleine McCann "disappeared" in Praia da Luz, Portugal
2007 - May 2007 - Hewlett was living an hour from Praia da Luz in a van with his wife and 6 children. Hewlett family were moving between three towns - Vila Real de Santo Antonio, Fuzeta and Tavira - all within 60 miles of Praia da Luz. Hewletts scraped money together by picking up unwanted jumble and old car parts, then selling it on.
2007 - May - Former Scots Guard Peter Verran (who was injured in Northern Ireland) claims that he met Hewlett at a campsite in Chefchaouen in Morocco in May 2007. "A former soldier (Verran) who met Hewlett at a campsite in Morocco in May 2007 told the Sunday Mirror he admitted parking a van close to the McCann’s complex on several occasions." In the Sunday Mirror, Mr. Verran, a former Scots Guard, said he had been interviewed by Leicestershire police." (Please note, the confusion regarding dates. If the news articles were correct and Verran met Hewlett in Morocco in May 2007, Hewlett was obviously not a concern to police.)
2007 - Summer 2007 - Hewletts were visited by local police helping in search for Maddie . Portuguese police visited Hewlett and his wife Mariana twice about the case (unknown dates). Hewlett gave Portuguese police a DNA swab and fingerprints. Hewlett at all times maintained his innocence in regard to the McCann case.
2007 - June 10, 2007 - Hewlett left Portugal and took his family to Morocco. He said: "A friend gave me a broken old Mercedes and I stripped it down into parts. "I knew they were worth a fortune in Morocco because I'd been there for a couple of months in 2005. You can even get good money for Mercedes nuts and bolts there. "I knew people on the docks at Faro and I got the captain of a ferry to take us over for free. We stayed in Morocco for two months and came back in the August. I made 300 euros from the car parts." Hewlett said he left Portugal five weeks after Madeleine disappeared for a two-month "business trip". Said that he caught a ferry from Faro to Morocco. (Note: British reporter claimed that "there is NO public ferry service between Faro and Morocco.") Hewlett said he stayed at campsite in Morocco for at least two months and made 300 euros selling car parts.
2007 - ~June 2007 to ~July 2007 Hewletts stayed at campsite in Morocco.
2007 - Alan and Cindy Thompson met Hewletts in Morocco and were the first to bring them to the attention of the police (allegedly)
2007 - August - Hewletts returned to Portugal from Morocco.
2007 - 22 October 2007 Castree trial began .
2007 - 12 November 2007 By a 10-2 majority, Ronald Castree was found guilty of murdering Lesley Molseed. He was sentenced to life imprisonment with a minimum term of 30 years. Outteridge, having not been charged over Kiszko's wrongful conviction, gave evidence at the trial of Castree. The West Yorkshire Police finally apologised for Kiszko's wrongful arrest and imprisonment on November 12, 2007, when Detective Chief Superintendent Max McLean said of Kiszko's wrongful imprisonment: "We are very sorry. I think everybody regrets enormously what happened to Stefan Kiszko. It was a dreadful miscarriage of justice. I am so pleased that today we have finally put things right."
Castree continues to proclaim his innocence. Defence counsel Rodney Jameson QC told Bradford Crown Court that there was "an overwhelming possibility" that the man who sexually assaulted Lesley and stabbed her 12 times was Hewlett. There is controversy over the possibility that Castree's DNA was planted by police on the piece of tape used to convict Castree. Lesley's clothing had been destroyed by the Forensic Science Services. "Castree could not explain the evidence other than suggesting he may have been framed by two police officers he crossed swords with in 1979 or that the profile was the result of cross-contamination."
2007 - August 2008 - Hewlett was in Spain undergoing treatment for throat cancer and "Portuguese police, acting on unknown information" swooped on his truck
2008
2008 - Hewletts left Spain for Germany where Hewlett was to undergo treatment for throat cancer at hospital in Aachen, Germany.
2008 December - Hewlett's son David was killed, allegedly falling out of the van as family drove through Spain en route to Germany. Spanish police were reportedly investigating.
2009
2009 - May - Hewletts were living in Aachen, Germany. Tracked down by McCann detectives to hospital in Aachen where Hewlett was undergoing treatment for throat cancer. The detectives had hoped to put a series of questions to him but he refused to see them and they were forced to return to the UK "empty-handed." Hewlett refused to see Madeleine investigators in May, claiming he was too ill to be questioned. (Note it was actually a decision made by his lawyer, however the British press reported it as Hewlett's refusal.)
2009 - June 2009 - Hewlett claimed he had only weeks to live. Hewlett discharged from hospital after being told by doctors there was nothing they could do for him.
2009 - June 2009 - Hewletts lived on fourth floor of a tower block described as "in a squalid German flat". His voice so weak it is at times barely audible, "...today Hewlett is holed up in his cramped, sparse apartment, with Mariana, 33, and six young children." The family arrived there six weeks previously as his health deteriorated and Mariana was able to get state benefits.
2009 - June 2009 - McCann investigators returned to Aachen Germany. Hewlett was deemed by his lawyer to be too ill to undergo intensive questioning. McCanns claim that Hewlett resembles a pock-marked suspect seen near the McCann holiday apartment and has refused to give an alibi for the night of the disappearance. He said: "It's obvious why they're interested in me. But they can all think what they like. I didn't kill the McCann girl. It's the truth and it's never going to change. "There is a person who can say where I was that day, but why should I bring them into this? I've done nothing wrong."
2009 - June 2009 - Det. Max McLean traveled to Aachen. Hewlett allegedly was still being investigated by West Yorkshire police over an attack nearly 30 years ago. "West Yorkshire Police are also investigating his possible involvement with an indecent assault in 1975."
2009 - June 2009 - British press claimed Hewlett was refusing to give an alibi for the night Madeleine vanished, although he did give an alibi but did not want to bring friends into the spotlight.
2009 - June 14, 2009 - Hewlett said he had never seen Madeleine in real life and vowed to prove his innocence. Offered to take a lie detector test or any test offered. Said he had only seen Madeleine on missing posters and once on a TV at a bar. "It's obvious why they're interested in me," "But they can all think what they like. I didn't kill the McCann girl. It's the truth and it's never going to change." Hewlett said: "I would say to the McCanns that I know what it's like to lose a child because it's happened to me recently," "I've been through hell and now I've got another hell which I don't deserve. I know for a fact that I didn't do anything wrong, but if people aren't listening, what can you do?" "I didn't kill the McCann girl."
2010
2010 - ~January 2010 Raymond Hewlett died of throat cancer.
2010 - March 2010 - The West Yorkshire police were approached by the CEOP with a request to review the Madeleine McCann investigation.
April 2010 - News reports indicated that Raymond Hewlett had died of throat cancer and was cremated at a pauper’s funeral in Germany four months prior (approx January 2010)
September 2010 - Wayne Hewlett, Raymond Hewlett's estranged son claimed to have received a deathbed letter from his father regarding Madeleine McCann. Wayne said his father had written that Madeleine McCann had been stolen to order by gypsies but that Raymond had had nothing to do with it. Wayne said that he had "he burned the letter because it ‘unnerved’ him so much." The McCann's private investigators were extremely interested in the claims.

Re: Timeline: Raymond Hewlett
I'm reawakening this thread that's been in hibernation for a few years.
Why? Because the character Raymond Hewlett, who dominated the Madeleine McCann headlines for so long, is a mirror image of Christian Brueckner who has dominated the Madeleine McCann headlines for the past 2.5 years. It's almost as though the latest claimed suspect has been modeled on Hewlett - such are the marked similarities.
I came across this Raymond Hewlett timeline blog, it's really only a repetition of the threads original posted-up by The Boss (she who must be obeyed) but with a few alterations and/or additions.
Worth another look I think..

Det Chief Supt Max McLean led the investigation
McLean said in 2001 that he was confident he would find prime suspect, Raymond Hewlett
Stefan Ivan Kiszko (1952-1993), a British tax clerk of Ukrainian parents, served 16 years in prison after he was wrongly convicted of the sexual assault and murder of Lesley Molseed. Considered one of the worst miscarriage of justice in UK history. Stefan Kiszko died soon after his release from prison.
Raymond Castree was convicted 12 November 2007 for Molseed murder. Continues to proclaim his innocence. Defence counsel Rodney Jameson QC told Bradford Crown Court that there was "an overwhelming possibility" that the man who sexually assaulted Lesley and stabbed her 12 times was Hewlett. There is controversy over the possibility that Castree's DNA was planted by police on the piece of tape used to convict Castree. Lesley's clothing had been destroyed by the Forensic Science Services. "Castree could not explain the evidence other than suggesting he may have been framed by two police officers he crossed swords with in 1979 or that the profile was the result of cross-contamination."
The book "Innocents" written by retired detective and local journalist concluded Hewlett was murderer of Lesley and provides details and witness statements. The book also established a previously unknown link between Mr Hewlett's family and friends of the Molseed family

It had a tartan blanket, that Hewlett had stolen in Scotland, wrapped around its windscreen and side windows
Linked to the crime scene by his ownership of a blue Morris 1000 van which matched descriptions given by 14 witnesses who saw one parked in a lay-by at Ripponden on the day of Lesley's abduction
Witness Christopher Coverdale saw a man with a girl matching Lesley's description walking up the hillside next to the lay-by
Hewlett arrived back in Todmorden at 5pm and told his teenage girlfriend, Rosalee Dolan (sometimes misspelled "Rosalie") to provide him with a false alibi

The Hewletts scraped money together by picking up unwanted jumble and old car parts, then selling them on.

"I knew they were worth a fortune in Morocco because I'd been there for a couple of months in 2005. You can even get good money for Mercedes nuts and bolts there. "I knew people on the docks at Faro and I got the captain of a ferry to take us over for free. We stayed in Morocco for two months and came back in the August. I made 300 euros from the car parts."
News articles claimed that there was no public ferry service between Faro and Morocco.

First brought to the attention of investigators by Alan and Cindy Thompson
Hewlett was determined to be terminally ill with throat cancer
August 2008: Hewlett in Spain undergoing treatment for throat cancer and "Portuguese police, acting on unknown information" swooped on his truck.
December 2008: Hewlett's 10 year old son David fell out of the family van and died while the family was traveling in Spain.
April/May 2009: Hewlett's traveled through Spain to Aachen, Germany - Hewlett's health was deteriorating and Mariana was able to get state benefits
May 2009: McCann detectives tracked Hewletts to Aachen where he was receiving treatment for cancer at a hospital. The detectives had hoped to put a series of questions to him but he refused to see them and they were forced to return to the UK empty-handed.
June 2009: Hewlett was discharged by German doctors - told nothing could be done for him. Hewlett, Mariana and six young children were living in Aachen "in a squalid German flat" on a fourth floor tower block. Hewlett claimed he had only weeks to live. McCann detectives returned to Aachen for a second time but Hewlett was deemed too ill to undergo intensive questioning.
Newspaper reports claimed Hewlett resembled a pock-marked suspect seen near the McCann holiday apartment and had refused to give an alibi for the night of the disappearance, yet Portuguese police stated that photos of Hewlett had been shown to the 13 year old girl who claimed to have seen someone near the apartment - and she said it was not him. Portuguese police also said that Hewlett's wife had given him an alibi and that his bank card had been used in Lisbon (3 hours away from Praia da Luz) at the time of Madeleine McCann's disappearance.
June 2009: West Yorkshire Police were also investigating Hewlett's possible involvement with an indecent assault in 1975. He was interviewed in early June by two detectives who traveled to Aachen: Det. Max McLean and another officer from the West Yorkshire police.
Maintained his innocence regarding the McCann case
June 14, 2009: Hewlett said he had never seen Madeleine in real life and vowed to prove his innocence. Offered to take a lie detector test or any test offered. Said he had only seen Madeleine on missing posters and once on a TV at a bar. He said: "It's obvious why they're interested in me. But they can all think what they like. I didn't kill the McCann girl. It's the truth and it's never going to change. "There is a person who can say where I was that day, but why should I bring them into this? I've done nothing wrong." "I would say to the McCanns that I know what it's like to lose a child because it's happened to me recently," "I've been through hell and now I've got another hell which I don't deserve. I know for a fact that I didn't do anything wrong, but if people aren't listening, what can you do?" "I didn't kill the McCann girl."
June 14, 2009: Simon Wright, reporter for the Mirror claimed there was a "mountain of circumstantial evidence against Hewlett
~December 2009: Hewlett died of cancer and was cremated in Germany
~December 2009: Two weeks after Raymond Hewlett's death, a mystery man alleged to have appeared at home of Wayne Hewlett with letter from his father (see below). This contradicts news reports stating that in APRIL 2010 the Hewlett family was unaware of Raymond's death.
April 10, 2010: Article in the Sun announced Hewlett's death had occurred 4 months prior and reported that Hewlett's ex-wife Susan and his children were unaware of his death. Article stated that Hewlett had been cremated at a pauper's funeral in Germany.
September 2010: Wayne Hewlett, son of Raymond and Susan, claimed to have received a letter from Hewlett two weeks after he died. Wayne claimed the letter professed his father's innocence regarding Madeleine's abduction and that Raymond had been told by a gipsy that he had abducted Madeleine and sold her to a wealthy childless couple. Wayne claimed to have burned the letter which he said had been delivered to him by a "mystery man". Wayne did not offer to provide the PJ with any information but planned to be interviewed by the "McCann investigators."

Uncanny!
Why? Because the character Raymond Hewlett, who dominated the Madeleine McCann headlines for so long, is a mirror image of Christian Brueckner who has dominated the Madeleine McCann headlines for the past 2.5 years. It's almost as though the latest claimed suspect has been modeled on Hewlett - such are the marked similarities.
I came across this Raymond Hewlett timeline blog, it's really only a repetition of the threads original posted-up by The Boss (she who must be obeyed) but with a few alterations and/or additions.
Worth another look I think..

MOLSEED MURDER CASE
Lesley Molseed's body was found near Ripponden on October 5, 1975
She had been stabbed a dozen times with a knife
Lesley had been abducted three days earlier while running an errand for her mum near their home in Rochdale
Det Chief Supt Max McLean led the investigation
McLean said in 2001 that he was confident he would find prime suspect, Raymond Hewlett
Stefan Ivan Kiszko (1952-1993), a British tax clerk of Ukrainian parents, served 16 years in prison after he was wrongly convicted of the sexual assault and murder of Lesley Molseed. Considered one of the worst miscarriage of justice in UK history. Stefan Kiszko died soon after his release from prison.
Raymond Castree was convicted 12 November 2007 for Molseed murder. Continues to proclaim his innocence. Defence counsel Rodney Jameson QC told Bradford Crown Court that there was "an overwhelming possibility" that the man who sexually assaulted Lesley and stabbed her 12 times was Hewlett. There is controversy over the possibility that Castree's DNA was planted by police on the piece of tape used to convict Castree. Lesley's clothing had been destroyed by the Forensic Science Services. "Castree could not explain the evidence other than suggesting he may have been framed by two police officers he crossed swords with in 1979 or that the profile was the result of cross-contamination."
The book "Innocents" written by retired detective and local journalist concluded Hewlett was murderer of Lesley and provides details and witness statements. The book also established a previously unknown link between Mr Hewlett's family and friends of the Molseed family
HEWLETT AND MOLSEED MURDER
Prime suspect in the Lesley Molseed murder
Lived in Todmorden, West Yorkshire - 10 miles from Rochdale - when Lesley was killed
Left for Ireland the day after Lesley Molseed was murdered
On the day of Lesley's disappearance, Hewlett's turquoise Morris 1000 van was seen parked in the lay-by on the A672 Oldham-Halifax Road next to the isolated spot where Lesley's body was found. It had a tartan blanket, that Hewlett had stolen in Scotland, wrapped around its windscreen and side windows
Linked to the crime scene by his ownership of a blue Morris 1000 van which matched descriptions given by 14 witnesses who saw one parked in a lay-by at Ripponden on the day of Lesley's abduction
Witness Christopher Coverdale saw a man with a girl matching Lesley's description walking up the hillside next to the lay-by
Hewlett arrived back in Todmorden at 5pm and told his teenage girlfriend, Rosalee Dolan (sometimes misspelled "Rosalie") to provide him with a false alibi
Hewlett and Dolan first fled to Burnley - stayed with two friends, Michael and John Goodall
Later they went to Liverpool and then fled to Ireland
1992 - Rosalee Dolan made statement to police that she had believed at the time that she had been providing an alibi for Hewlett about the theft of a car and admitted she had lied.
Hewlett was re-investigated for the Molseed murder and interviewed again while serving a six-year prison sentence for a sexual offence committed in 1988.
1993 - Questioned by police re: Molseed murder. Most of his answers consisted of: "No reply". Freed due to "lack of evidence".
March 2001 - Hewlett was named by Det Chief Supt Max McLean as the prime suspect in the Molseed murder.

Re: Timeline: Raymond Hewlett
I'm convinced Hewlett killed Lesley Molseed, why the police couldn't find enough evidence to convict him is a mystery to me.
His history is uncannily like Brückner's, he served prison sentences but Hewlett never served the full term and like Brückner absconded on occasions.
There is no report he committed any crimes in Portugal yet the police must have known about him to question him and take his DNA. And again in 2008 the portuguese police acting on evidence swooped on him in Spain.
Brückner frequented scrap yards and Hewlett did the same, I wonder if they knew each other.
