Child pornography on lost memory card: 57-year-old sentenced to imprisonment for sexual abuse

On a memory card left behind in a wooded area in NRW, a lost property office found videos on the sexual abuse of children. A 57-year-old has now been sentenced to more than three years in prison.



For the sexual abuse of two children and the possession of child pornography, a 57-year-old from Lower Saxony has to go to jail. The District Court of Bielefeld sentenced him to imprisonment for three years and three months. Thus, the court went to the sentence of three months beyond the demand of the prosecutor. (Az .: 10 Ls 264/19)

The case had caused a stir because in February 2019 the man lost a bag with a memory card near Halle in the Teutoburg Forest. A lost property office had not only found a photo of a man, but also videos of the sexual abuse of children in their sleep. As it turned out later, the victims were the grandchildren of a former girlfriend of the 57-year-old from Bielefeld.

In court, the man from the heath circle in Lower Saxony made a confession and apologized to the family of the children. Magistrate Astrid Salewski assumed at the conclusion of the hearing that finding the bag in the forest was no coincidence. "They wanted to get caught," Salewski said in the direction of the defendant, who did not argue.

The verdict is not yet legally binding. The defender of the 57-year-old hinted, however, to accept the verdict.
