Bavaria: Judgment after double murder by Mistelbach before Christmas

Bayreuth (dpa / lby) - In the trial of the alleged double murder in Mistelbach (Bayreuth district), a verdict is to be reached before Christmas. The Bayreuth district court announced on Wednesday that the announcement was planned for December 22nd. The process is conducted behind closed doors.

A 17-year-old and her boyfriend, who was 18 at the time of the crime, have been charged in the juvenile chamber of the court. The young woman is said to have conceived a plan to murder her own parents. Her boyfriend is said to have carried out the act in early January. According to the indictment, he surprised and stabbed his parents while they were sleeping. So it should look like a burglary.

The public prosecutor's office assumes that the crime was precisely planned and suspects the accused's hatred of their parents as the motive. There had always been arguments before. What it was about, like many other questions, remained unclear. The Bayreuth district court is keeping a low profile. The hearing of evidence is to be completed on December 16, when the court would like to provide information on the exact date of the verdict.
