Marvin N. smoked hookah, Olesya K. drank Cola. Against 0.35 PM, the young woman remembers they were broken up from there. She wanted to go home. They got into Marvin’s car and drove off.

a Few minutes later, a man died, a few days later, Marvin N. was arrested. He had been delivered according to the charge, with his well-Known, Hamdi H., against 0.40 p.m. on the Ku’damm in Berlin, a race.

It is a difficult process, and it is not the first main hearing of the case. The Federal court annulled a first, spectacular judgment for murder. The judges complained, inter alia, that the judge had not established a conditional intention to Kill is sufficient. The process began in August 2018 in front of a different penal chamber of the front and ended up right back because of a bias on the part of the request of the accused against the judge of success.

Now the 32 is. Great criminal chamber chaired by judge Matthias Schertz responsible. While the Prosecutor, the defender, the defendant, have experienced in addition to plaintiff and co-plaintiff representative, even of the expert, the witness Olesya K. in the first method already, learn the judge to this day. This leads to conflicts.

state attorney Christian Fröhlich defender Rainer Elfferding rüffelt, he should not come to the witness with statements from the previous main hearing, not have heard, the current judge. Defender Elfferding says he does not see why he should pay therefore to his memory. Judge Schertz go in-between. “The Problem we see coming,” he says. Where appropriate, the former judge had to be heard as a witness.

contusions, pulmonary contusion, laceration

It was the height of the Adenauer Platz, a short time after they have risen in Marvin N. s Mercedes, the Audi of Hamdi H. only, have seen, reported by Olesya K. before the court. He turned and suddenly stood beside them. In the middle Betmatik of the road, the men stopped down boosted the window, exchanged a few words. To the content of the conversation, you have no memory. It had not gone to any of the types she knew, she says. You have written a message to her mom that she was at home. Behind them, cars would have honked the horn. Then the Audi driver had been suddenly Gas.

“Mr. N. was very shocked,” says the witness. “Why train like a Madman?”, he said. Marvin N. first a, a second red light before also he was the one who started running. “Not so fast!” you’ve been told. But she did not know whether he heard her at all. The music was so loud, the engine also. “Marvin N. didn’t say anything, he just passed Gas.”

“everything went so fast,”

Why Marvin N. was at once the one who started running, she could not say. How fast he was driving, not know you. The defender of Hamdi H., Peter Zuriel, reminds you of a previous statement in which you have spoken of a “roller coaster feeling”. May be, says Olesya K., that there were more than 80 km/h. Why do you want to be better at the speed of recall as two years ago, when she had spoken of a speed of 80, asks the defender of Marvin N. you know by now, the report says. Accordingly, Marvin N. is supposed to be with his Mercedes up to 150 , Hamdi H., with his Audi up to 170 km/h fast. Also the logs of the interviews you’ve read to prepare, says the witness.

The repeated appearances in court and the danger that witnesses their testimony to customize your knowledge from the documents, that’s a Problem. Another Problem is the dwindling memory of an event that lasted only a few seconds.

“your honor, everything happened so fast,” says Matthias D. He was at a bus stop. He could not say whether the Audi or the Mercedes was in front, when he saw you with well over 100 kph on the Ku’damm lawn. The types of cars he has noticed. The high speed also. Much more he knows today.
