For the sake of judges nothing else is possible… An 18-year-old serious offender was hit with the seriousness mildness of the law. He was considered for an unbelievably harsh probation and a full 150 hours of social work for his six offenses. And don’t forget the insistent admonition of the judge: “If you disappoint me, I will become very angry.” That certainly hit home!

Der Generalanzeiger writes:

The serious offender of Meckenheim who now has to face charges before the Euskirchen Juvenile Court had apparently been able to carry on his mischief for too long.

Six charges were compiled against the 18-year-old today — break-in and burglary in three cases, to driving without a license and falsification of documents, to robbery. And one of his victims was a juror who had to sit in court for his case.

When the juror found out the first time at the reading of the charges (since the law states that nothing about the case can be heard before the reading) that the accused was involved in a crime with her car, the trial was over at the start. She had to give up her place on the jury because of bias.

Also, Meckenheim youth, among whom were a few court-known serious offenders, had to abandon their places in the viewing area when the trial was continued against their friend. Two others who were accessories to the accused had also been defendants before, and since both of them were adolescents at the time of the crime, the trial took place publicly.

However because both of them were only present at the attempted break-ins of a Meckenheim church, a bakery and a wool shop, the trial for them ended quickly. The sentence of community service hours was thundered upon them.

Then it was time for the trial against the serious offender himself, and since he was still a minor at the time of the crime, the public was excluded of the process. The German-born son in an immigrant family, whose members have lived an orderly life otherwise, admitted upon advice by the court to all of the charges against him by the district attorney. Beginning with the first act where he, at the age of 16 and without a license, drove an automobile into a lamppost, then to stealing a purse in a disco in Königswinter, and then the most serious accusation.

In January 2009, he along with two other perpetrators fell upon a youth, beat him, and then searched him until they had found 50 Euros. Now, the court charged him particularly for all of this, and he apologized to his victim and wished him a speedy recovery.

At the end of the trial came the sentence: The 18-year-old, who had gotten away before with bodily injury with community service and arrests, must now receive the youth offender sentence of one and one-half years probation and 150 hours of community service. Judge Krapoth warned: “If you disappoint me, I will become very angry.”

He will certainly not disappoint him. He finally knows now that offensive behavior gets dealt with harshly.
