Berlin regional court sentences father to twelve years in prison for killing his three-month-old baby. It found the 38-year-old guilty of manslaughter.
The defendant spontaneously decided to drown his second child, the verdict said. "He couldn't bear this screaming anymore at that moment and didn't just want to stop it for the moment," it said. The man had taken the dead baby to a hospital in the trunk of his car, where he was arrested a short time later.
