The appalling animal cruelty to a French bulldog and the abuse of its own mother will be discussed in Vienna’s regional court on Tuesday. A 38-year-old Viennese allegedly beat his mother and drowned the poor animal in a bucket.
“Benji” had to suffer terrible pain for the last three days of his life. The French bulldog was very unlucky to be taken in by a mentally ill man. The 38-year-old Viennese talks soberly and calmly about his actions. “I admit it,” says the man in his trial at the Vienna Regional Court, in which he is not the suspect, but – as they say in detention negotiations – the affected person.
It is said that the dog was “remote controlled”.
‘Benji’ and the Viennese’s mother are actually affected by the events. In May, he shaved off the playful animal’s head and beard hair with scissors: “Because I am paranoid and thought he was being controlled by others.” “Well, that it’s controlled remotely, by a supernatural force.”
A little later the Floridsdorfer fetched a bucket and filled it with water. “I just submerged it,” he says. Until the poor animal drowned in pain. “Why did you do that?” Mr. Rat wants to know: “Because of my paranoia. I thought he was going to eat me.” After the crime, he drove the carcass to the dump and threw away the dead dog.
Her own mother was also seriously injured by her madness
Another incident is the subject of the trial. The person concerned was visiting his mother and said he wanted to speak to his father on the telephone. The mother replied, “You can’t talk to him on the phone. “Daddy is dead.” Because the man did not want to accept this, he hit the woman with his fists, breaking her nose and sternum, among other things. “I was afraid he actually wanted to kill me. As a mother, this breaks my heart,” said the woman who was seriously injured by her son.
Admission to institution
The man also remembers this incident perfectly. Nevertheless, the psychiatric expert states that the person concerned was mentally incompetent when he committed his actions. “He acted under the influence of an acute psychosis.” In addition, the man, who suffers from paranoid schizophrenia, always smoked cannabis before the crimes. According to the psychiatrist, the risk of a serious act of violence then increases six to twelve times. The expert rules out conditional accommodation. So it is clear: the man is placed in a forensic therapeutic center. He accepts the decision.
