Murder of greed: 15 years in prison for unscrupulous Markus B.!
In a shocking case of murder and raids in Hamm, Markus B. (50 years old) was sentenced to 15 years in prison. The judge expressed the judgment on April 24, 2025, after it became clear that the defendant acted out of greed. His victim, the 76-year-old Inge G., was brutally strangled with a red neckerchief. The murder occurred a year ago. After the crime, Markus B. lived with the body of the murdered for several days, sold her valuables and used her fridge, such as Bild.de reported.
The defendant had a fateful motive. He needed money for drugs such as cocaine, heroin and alcohol. This is not the first time that Markus B. got into conflict with the law. He already has eight criminal records, all of which are related to drug use. In conjunction with his severely neglected living situation and an expert opinion that found its reduced control capacity, the court followed the application of the public prosecutor's office for a long prison sentence.

In addition to the murder, Markus B. is also charged with the 82-year-old Edelgard S. for an attack, which he also knew. In this attack, he threatened his victims with a knife and tied them. However, Edelgard S. managed to free herself with sewing scissors even though she was slightly injured. The circumstances of the assault and the threat are a figurative testimony to the behavior of the accused.During the process, Markus B. claimed that he did not intend to kill Inge G. and believed that she would still live. However, the judge had problems with understanding for this statement and found them unbelievable. After eight years in prison, the convict is given the opportunity to take part in drug therapy before he has to serve the rest of his punishment.
Another murder case is clarified
In another cruel case and far from Hamm, a murder case from 1991 was recently uncovered in Dortmund. Here, too, two perpetrators, a 63-year-old man and a 61-year-old woman, were now sentenced to life in prison. This was done for the murder of a 28-year-old employee who was killed in her house during a break-in. t-online.de reports that the perpetrators murdered their victim with massive violence and knife stings.
Only many years later, 2023, the investigators managed to compensate for DNA traces from the accused with samples from 1991. These traces were initially not sufficient to identify the perpetrators, which combines the cases with each other: During Markus B.'s murder case, the dark side of society shows, the 1991 enlightened murder case makes it clear how long it sometimes takes to obtain justice.
