A virus as a deadly weapon: At the beginning of this year, a Carinthian died of Corona. A neighbor who was on the road despite the quarantine is said to have infected him. Based on the allegations, the prosecutor’s office is investigating murder by gross negligence.
Corona criminal cases are no longer a big exception. Time and again it happens that sick people violate the quarantine regulations and are caught. In the worst case scenario, they end up in criminal court for “deliberate exposure to communicable diseases”. But in this case it’s about the death of another!
“We are also investigating a suspect for death by gross negligence. Despite the quarantine, she would have left her apartment and infected her neighbor, who died of Corona,” reports Markus Kitz, spokesman for the Klagenfurt prosecutor’s office. An expert had already been able to show that both had contracted the same virus strain. path of the infection could be traced.”
So it would be clear that the woman had infected the pensioner, and not the other way around. You are first confronted with the results of the investigations, after which a decision is made about possible prosecution. There is a risk of three years in prison.
