“Married?” So far it is the only question to which the presiding judge Jochen Kötter has received an answer from the accused, a short “yes”. That was it. The 28-year-old has been sitting in the dock in the Wuppertal district court since June – and is silent. The prosecution’s allegation: She is said to have killed five of her six children on September 3, 2020. On that day, police officers rushed to the family’s apartment in Solingen’s Hasseldelle. Luca, 8, Timo, 6, Sophie, 3, Leonie, 2, and Melina, 1, were already dead.
