In the trial of the alleged murderer of ten-year-old Stephanie from Weimar, the prosecutor's office has demanded a life sentence for the accused. He had pushed Stephanie in the attempt to murder of a high bridge on the highway 4.
The man wanted to get rid of the child in August 1991, after he abducted and abused it, said prosecutor Ralf Mohrmann before the district court Gera. The statement of the today 66-year-old, that he only deposed the girl at the Teufelstalbrücke on the Autobahn 4, is unbelievable.
Defender denies murder charge
The alleged perpetrator was suspected only in March 2018. A specialized on old cases special commission dealt with the case - and came across the motorist who lived in Berlin. He had previously committed sexual offenses against children who resembled the act that fell victim to Stephanie.
