The three-year-old killed in Detmold has been killed according to findings of the investigators with 28 knife wounds. The autopsy revealed that said police and prosecutors. "It is assumed that the victim slept at the time of the crime."
Suspect is the 15-year-old half-sister of the boy. She had been caught on Thursday morning after hours of escape in Lemgo. The adolescent has stated that she considers herself the perpetrator. However, she relied on memory gaps, said police and prosecutors.
"As a motive for the deed is to be assumed that the accused lived in a difficult family environment and has developed a deep dislike for the half-brother," the investigators said. However, she did not name a specific reason for the crime.
At the request of the prosecutor, the Detmold District Court issues arrest warrants for murder. The magistrate had assumed that the young person had committed the act out of low motives and insidiousness. Because of the gravity of the crime and possible risk of absconding, the 15-year-old was to be housed in the juvenile prison in Iserlohn. There she is supposed to examine a psychiatrist for her liability.
