Scandal processes 2024: murder, robbery and fraud in the spotlight!

In 2024 there were a number of significant legal processes in Saarland that concerned topics such as murder, severe robbery and complex fraud. Various cases caused a sensation and intensive media reporting.

A particularly sensational case was that of a taxi sponsor from St. Ingbert. The accused, K., suffers from a dissocial personality disorder and has many years of drug addiction. In this case, the court considers preventive detention necessary, while the defense lawyer appealed and demands the accommodation of its client in a withdrawal institution.

serious crimes and their judgments

Another shocking case is the trial against the St. Wendler vault, which was convicted of paying 100,000 euros to the sacrificial family. A Snapchat photo could not relieve him because the main tutor identified him as an accomplice, but later withdrew his statement. The prey of the robbery has not yet been found.

The murder of Gabriele M. led to the conviction of 61-year-old Thomas Paul F., who raped and killed the 69-year-old. He received a penalty of 15 years in prison and permanent accommodation in a psychiatric hospital. The crime was clarified by DNA traces. While the public prosecutor's office claimed lifelong prison, the defense was aiming for a conviction for rape with death.

In the process of child abuse, the foster parents Sabine and Patrick D. were acquitted, despite serious allegations on the physical and sexual abuse of foster children. The knife attack of a 23-year-old in the wildlife park, in which a couple from France was seriously injured, also ended with eight years in prison. The attacker could not remember the crime and had a attested personality disorder.

A major fraud was uncovered by Luigi S., which in two Corona test centers and the Association of Statutory Health Insurance Physicians betrayed 1.03 million euros. Although only 15,000 tests were carried out, he had 151,472 tests billed. The accused confessed and divided part of the damage back, but showed no remorse. The court saw the risk of escape and ordered the immediate custody.

in the appeal procedure of the ENT chief doctor Dr. Bernhard Schick, who was charged with sexual harassment by two doctors, led the contradicting statements and the lack of witnesses to an acquittal. However, this judgment is not yet final because the public prosecutor's office has appealed. Likewise, the Yeboah judgment in the context of a knife attack in a regional railway in Saarbrücken will be examined in January 2025, while Peter S. was sentenced to six years and ten months for the murder and particularly serious arson.

remarkable legal proceedings also took place outside the Saarland. In November 2019, for example, a trial against a 30-year-old man began at the Munich II District Court, who is charged with attempted murder of 88 women and girls. The defendant is said to have pretended to be a scientist and have made women via Skype to inflict life -threatening electric shocks. According to the police, up to 120 victims from all over Germany are affected, with charges being charged in 88 cases; Other cases could not be proven. The man has been in custody since February 2018.
