In the trial against the deceased 13-year-old Leonie, the first witnesses are called on the fourth day. In addition to the first responder and Leonie’s best friend, the fourth Afghan who was initially suspected must also sit on the witness stand.
Even as she tried to resuscitate the girl, the first responder realized she could no longer save Leonie. The woman was on her way to work – she is a nurse – when she saw two men and a girl. The 13-year-old leaned against a tree. She came to the rescue and the third defendant held out the mobile phone to her. He would have already called the rescue service. Then suddenly they were both gone.
“That means that during the CPR you already had the impression that the girl was dead and was only being resuscitated to be sure?”, lawyer Thomas Nirk wonders. “Yes, I’m not a doctor,” says the nursing assistant, who is highly trained in first aid.
Originally fourth suspect as drug dealer
The second witness should provide more insight into what happened that night: the Afghan who was arraigned, who has been in prison for three years for drug trafficking, was initially listed as the fourth suspect. “The investigation has shown that I had nothing to do with the girl and that my only problem is drugs.” And that’s exactly what he would have tackled. He sold the first accused the pills that killed Leonie – 200 of them!
Lemon juice as an overdose remedy
He himself consumes various addictive substances, he states in court. That is why the first suspect would have called him when Leonie was already feeling very bad. His advice: freshly squeezed lemon juice. “I heard it would help with alcohol. I thought the same about drugs.” The Afghan told police that the prime suspect had told him that Leonie had swallowed six ecstasy tablets and that her heart had stopped beating, adding: ‘When he told me he had given the girl so many pills, I knew it was too much. used to be.’
Request for further witness hearings
However, in the presence of Judge Anna Marchart, he says during the trial: “I did not say that to the police.” He also says he doesn’t know anything about the night – only that Leonie was drunk. But he officially signed the police report of his interrogation! The Public Prosecution Service and the representatives of the private parties therefore request a summons from the officials and the interpreter.
