After three days of trial at the Miesbach district court, a 23-year-old from Rottach was sentenced to two years probation and additional conditions.

Rottach-Egern

– After three days of trial, the verdict has now been pronounced against a 23-year-old from Rottacher.

He received a suspended sentence and a number of conditions.

According to the indictment, over a period of several years he asked underage girls between the ages of eleven and 16 on the Internet to send him nude photos and perform intimate acts on themselves.

He is also said to have sent offensive pictures of himself to the victims.

If the girls did not comply with his demands, he is said to have put them under massive threats.

Defendant blames former roommate

When the police analyzed four cell phones, they also seized child pornography material, as well as the chat histories, which documented the same pattern that the now 23-year-old had followed.

After feigning infatuation, he quickly became direct in his demands.

The defendant himself had contributed little to the clarification during the trial and had already initially cited some kind of childhood trauma that severely affected his memory (we reported).

However, he had an explanation ready: At the time of the crime, he lived in a group home and often let a roommate share his cell phones.

He never gave him back one of the phones.

In view of the always the same approach and diction, the court classified this version as a hardly credible protective claim.

Rottacher threatened to murder relatives

A 13-year-old from Freiburg at the time of the crime was called as a witness.

Her fear of the defendant was so great that she was only able to testify after he had left the room.

He had previously been able to vaguely remember a “shitty operation” in connection with this case.

The victim could only remember parts of the contact.

She also suspected that a roommate had used her cell phone and possibly secretly participated in the chats - but judge Klaus-Jürgen Schmid didn't buy that because it was a "love chat".

However, it became clear how the defendant was hurting her when the 13-year-old rejected his demands: he announced violence and the death of a relative to her.

The remaining six cases were handled by reading out the chats and being questioned by the police.

The questioning by the juvenile court assistant - the defendant had skipped an appointment - revealed many difficulties and disruptions in the 23-year-old's life.

Defendant shows no remorse or insight

The prosecutor lacked any remorse or insight from the defendant.

The large number of acts document a considerable threat potential and an “enormously degrading and misogynistic approach”.

The defense also judged that the chats had “shocking and hideous content,” but he did not believe a prison sentence would make sense.

His client has to move away from the abuse of social media and into real life.
