The events of Rose Monday almost two years ago will stay in people’s minds forever, said the mayor of Volkmarsen Hartmut Linnekugel after the verdict was pronounced on Thursday. According to the indictment, Maurice P. had steered his vehicle into the carnival parade of Volkmarsen. The Kassel regional court has sentenced the now 31-year-old to life imprisonment for 89 murder attempts, Attorney General Tobias Wipplinger. “Based on the evidence taken, the criminal chamber is convinced that the defendant deliberately and deliberately steered his vehicle into the crowd of the Carnival Monday procession taking place in Volkmarsen on that day in order to injure and kill people The court today unequivocally closed the accused from external events because the accused carried out such a reckless and extremely dangerous act which, in the opinion of the court, was also marked by considerable criminal energy. ” The prosecution charged P. among other things with attempted murder in 91 cases. Why he committed the act – there was no answer to this question in the trial. The defendant was silent on the allegations. The defense attorney, Bernd Pfläging. “If I knew, I shouldn’t tell you. I have a duty of confidentiality. And it is the right of every accused to defend himself in silence. That is his decision, and the court has to accept it that way.” The defense does not rule out a revision.
