Deggendorf murder trial: verdict is postponed – Bavaria

Actually, in the process of the cruel death of a young mother at the Deggendorf district court, the verdict should be made against the woman’s ex-boyfriend. Instead, it’s about how she wore her hair.

Of

Deniz Aykanat, Deggendorf

Dominik R. enters hearing room 1 of the Deggendorf district court, shaven head, glasses with thick dark rims, short, neatly trimmed full beard. He wears blue trousers resembling those of an electrician or bricklayer. But Dominik R. does not come from work, but from the Straubing prison, where he has been incarcerated since 2017. And the question this Tuesday in the Deggendorf district court is when Dominik R. will leave this prison again. After the twelve years to which he was sentenced in 2017 at the Passau district court for the manslaughter of his ex-girlfriend? With good leadership maybe after eight years? Or only after 15 years or more? When a murder conviction is reached.
