What a 29-year-old described as a ‘stupid situation’ is now serving his twelfth previous conviction. In November, he chased two women so aggressively that they fled to a police station. The suspect offers a lot of resistance there. In court in Vienna, he tearfully said: “Everyone wants to experience something.”
A ‘victim-perpetrator reversal’, as it is written in the textbook, is presented by a 29-year-old to the jury of the Vienna Regional Court. “I may not have done everything perfectly, but I did it the best I could,” he complains. In complete contrast to this are his eleven previous convictions – all for violent crimes and drugs. In recent years he has spent two-thirds of his time in prison…
“Everyone wants to experience something”
The current accusation: On November 16, he spoke to two women at the bus stop on Schwedenplatz. “I had no bad intentions with the girls,” he emphasizes. “But every person also wants to experience something.” The 29-year-old had only been released from prison two months earlier and simply wanted to get to know two beautiful women. But they clearly didn’t want that. He chased them to a police station, where the two Ukrainian women fled.
Psychiatrist considers 29-year-old dangerous
There and also during the transfer to Josefstadt prison after he was arrested, he encountered a lot of resistance: he wanted to headbutt one officer, he kicked others and injured the finger of another. And although police officers on the witness stand gradually talked about the incident, there was no admission of guilt. “They were very tense. I felt like they were going to attack me. Maybe I took the wrong step,” the defendant tries to explain.
According to forensic psychiatrist Peter Hofmann, one thing is certain: the 29-year-old cannot survive without therapy. His personality disorder makes him dangerous: “The moment he goes outside again, he resumes his behavior,” Hofmann emphasizes, referring to the suspect’s criminal past. The young man’s drug problem wouldn’t necessarily help either.
“It was just a stupid situation.”
At the end of his trial, the defendant again demonstrated the proven ‘manipulative whitewashing of his own behavior’: ‘It was just a stupid situation that I got myself into.’ Which now gives him his twelfth previous conviction: two and a half years in prison. He will also be housed in a forensic therapeutic center. Not legally binding.
