The charge against the young man was negligent intoxication, said senior prosecutor Antje Gabriels-Gorsolke Franconian day (Saturday). Now the juvenile court must decide whether there will be a trial. The motive for the act of violence is still unclear.
In addition to the suspected brother, the girl’s mother also refused to testify. Other media had also reported on the indictment.
The accused is said to have killed his sister with a knife on January 6 while intoxicated with drugs and also attacked and seriously injured his mother. The young man has been in custody since the crime.
