Ingo K. enters meeting room 2 of the trial building in Stuttgart-Stammheim in handcuffs. The 55-year-old wears a goatee, has toned shoulders and a braid in his hair. He sends a friendly “Good morning” to the bench. It almost looks like he’s in a good mood. From time to time he looks over to the audience area with a mischievous smile and runs his tattooed hand through his slightly gray beard.
It’s the day of the indictment. Today he has to answer in court for attempted murder, among other things, for an act that is said to have taken place on April 20, 2022. Because of the special importance of the case, Attorney General Peter Frank took over the investigation.
