His self-criticism just protected a Wolfratshauser from prison. The 31-year-old had to answer to the district court again for being insulted - and got away with another chance of probation.
Wolfratshausen - Even a long-serving magistrate is not immune to surprises. In the present case, things did not look good for the defendant. After two earlier proceedings, the last of which was ended with a suspended sentence of six months, the path for Wolfratshauser (31), who had again committed a crime, now seemed mapped out. But it turned out differently. “I can see that he's been working on himself. I am surprised by him, "emphasized Judge Helmut Berger," and very positively. "Therefore, he granted the defendant a further chance of probation.
Wolfratshausen District Court: Defendant gets another chance to parole
The trial concerned two incidents. In the autumn of 2018, the suspect in Gelting showed a pensioner (73) on the street several times with the outstretched middle finger. On March 23, 2019, he is said to have insulted a neighbor (71) as an "old pig" and kicked her door with hands and feet. Therefore he had to answer for property damage and insult.
The accused stood by it. There was a skirmish with the Geltinger because he drove his car too close a few times when he was delivering advertising. And encounters with neighbors have occasionally resulted in emotionally charged arguments for a long time. He wanted to bring his bike into the cellar, and the door crashed into the wall. “She scolded me, I got angry,” the defendant admitted. "I apologize for that."

A lot has changed since that incident. A legal guardian was brought in at the initiative of the probation officer. Their support seems to be paying off for the defendant. The 31-year-old has Asperger's Syndrome, which affects the ability to interact socially, sometimes more, sometimes less.
"It is difficult to accept if you think you are right," explained the supervisor. “But he thinks that he will present himself differently in the future. And he's noticeably calmer lately. ”The neighbor also confirmed this. "It's been quieter in the past few months," said the pensioner, who couldn't help but say: "You don't know when the bomb will explode again."
The defendant said: I have changed my mind. I'm not so angry anymore. Doesn't make sense to be annoyed all the time. ”He also tries to get a job and wants to do an apprenticeship. “I am not satisfied with the condition. Cycling all day or sitting in front of the computer is not enough. "
This is a step in the right direction, but you have to keep going.
Judge Helmut Berger on the defendantJudge Berger followed the prosecutor's request and sentenced Wolfratshauser to eight months' imprisonment, which he suspended for four years. “He's critical of himself, that wasn't something you could tell before,” says Berger. "This is a step in the right direction, but you have to keep going."
As a condition, the judge ordered that the 31-year-old must make every effort to get a job and regularly go to Asperger's consultation hours at the Großhadern Clinic “and follow their suggestions”. The defendant promised: "I want to focus on the future and make sure that things like this don't happen again."
Because he thwarted another driver on the A95, a tax advisor was recently fined 10,500 euros in court. The man had already appealed against an initial judgment.
