It was the hairdresser whose private life was already looking suspiciously out of shape.
He had raped the radio presenter in the vineyards of the Kaiserstuhl.
Before that, the Freiburg team of investigators led by Tobler and Berg had spoken a lot about the statistical aspects and the legal contradictions of DNA examinations in solving violent crimes.
Three weird guys who led a noticeably shaky social life had meanwhile been targeted by the police.

Crime season 2020/2021: You will argue about these "crime scenes" by Christian Buß
In our review we wrote: "A little too many private hells for 90 minutes of broadcasting time - especially since this 'crime scene' is supposed to be a themed thriller that illuminates its material on different levels. The investigators calculate and talk and curve the Kaiserstuhl up and down without it you have the feeling that they will eventually reach their goal. Ethics seminar, statistics course, digression into fears of men - in this episode, author Nicole Armbruster and director Barbara Kulcsar try to tick off so many aspects of their subject that in the end you don't really know where they're going . "
We gave 3 out of 10 points.
How did you like the "crime scene" and the handling of the DNA test topic?
Perhaps the Black Forest "Tatort" seemed so erratic and cumbersome because the last followers with Tobler and Berg were consistently told from the perspective of the main characters: "Forever you" was about a minor runaway who lived with an older man , in the Carnival episode "I cried in a dream" about an ex-prostitute who was haunted by her past.
The films came without any handy psychologizations, they were thrillers in confrontation mode.
Let's hope that the next Southwest "crime scene" takes a more radical approach to its subject.
In any case, there is an exciting topic in it.
It is about inheritance and the implications for social peace that the material contains.
The episode is currently being shot and will air in 2021.
