Memmingen: Two suspects charged with murdering a 16-year-old – Bavaria

The public prosecutor’s office has brought charges against a 25-year-old and a 16-year-old for the murder of a young person near Memmingen Airport. The two are accused of first drugging their 16-year-old victim in November 2021 without their knowledge, then hitting them with a glass bottle and finally killing them with multiple stab wounds.

According to the investigators, the act was planned, but a motive “could not be clarified with sufficient certainty”. The 16-year-old’s body was found south of Memmingen Airport one day after the crime. A little later, the police found two knives on the 25-year-old suspect that could have been used as murder weapons.

The man and the 16-year-old suspect were arrested and have been in custody ever since. According to the public prosecutor, the Memmingen Regional Court will decide whether the charges will be admitted and whether there will be a trial.
