Maddie affair: sexual assault, rape… the trial of the main suspect opens for five other cases. Christian Brueckner is on trial in Germany for sexual crimes committed between 2000 and 2017.
He is also on trial for the rape of a woman in her seventies, tied and beaten in her vacation apartment, of a child of around 14 tied to a post in her house and of a 20-year-old Irish woman in whose home he visited via the balcony. His lawyer, Friedrich Fülscher, assures that his client plans to defend himself by remaining silent.
