Killed six-year-old Joel: Defendant partially confesses. There was a surprise in the trial in the case of Joel, which has been ongoing since February.
He is said to have beaten and stabbed Joel in the municipality of Pragsdorf in the Mecklenburg Lake District last September. Around 50 witnesses have been heard since February - additional appointments necessary. The day of the trial ended on Thursday afternoon without two experts - including a psychiatric expert - testifying as originally planned.
