The savings bank trial is over: the district court in Munich sentenced Jakob Kreidl to eleven months and Georg Bromme to one year and eight months of probation.
Miesbach/Munich
– The verdict was eagerly awaited, and the judge's decision was made shortly after 2:30 p.m. on Wednesday.
Former district savings bank boss Georg Bromme (73) received a suspended sentence of one year and eight months for breach of trust in 30 cases.
The former district administrator Jakob Kreidl (69) was sentenced to a suspended sentence of eleven months in 20 cases for infidelity.
The court thus moved between the demands of the public prosecutor's office and defense attorneys.
In the second trial about expensive gifts at the expense of the Kreissparkasse Miesbach-Tegernsee, the public prosecutor wanted to put ex-CEO Bromme behind bars again.
The prosecution demanded two and a half years in prison for the 73-year-old in their plea before the Munich II district court on Monday.
According to the prosecution, the co-defendant ex-CSU district administrator and former supervisory board chairman Kreidl should be sentenced to one year and three months probation.
The defense attorneys had requested significantly lower sentences, namely a suspended sentence of one year and three months for Bromme and nine months for Kreidl.
The fact that the two defendants apologized to the board of directors, and Bromme to the bank's staff council, may have had a mitigating effect.
Hardly any change to judgments in the first trial
In the first trial, Bromme and Kreidl were sentenced to suspended sentences of one and a half years and eleven months respectively for breach of trust.
As a result, nothing changes for Kreidl, while for Bromme the penalty is two months higher.
