The brazen thief won the trust of her victims and took advantage of them. She had to appear before the regional court in Feldkirch on Friday for serious commercial theft – and is now behind bars.
The lawyer’s request for a lenient sentence for his client almost sounds like mockery. “She did not pocket the money for herself, but sent it to Romania. It’s like a clan. “You also need to understand the circumstances of the people living in Romania,” says the lawyer.

The fact that the 46-year-old criminal tourist has five previous convictions for such crimes in Germany, Switzerland and Austria also shows how the law does not matter to the unemployed, especially since she always got away with suspended prison sentences. in the past. After three thefts in Vorarlberg, in which she stole money and jewelry totaling 8,300 euros from pensioners, the thieving Romanian’s “lucky attempt” ended at the regional court in Feldkirch.
Judge Lisa Pfeifer sentenced her to a non-suspended prison term of 14 months for aggravated commercial theft. She must pay compensation of 8,300 euros to the victims within two weeks. How to do that is another question. The fact is: the unemployed Romanian doesn’t have a cent.
So there is little comfort for the robbed seniors when the professional thief says she will pay back the money if she ever has it. The judgment is not final.
