Kempten, Deutschland - On Wednesday, January 8, 2024, the murder trial against a 17-year-old man begins at the Kempten district court who is accused of having killed a 53-year-old homeless person from immensely. The incident, which made headlines nationwide in May 2023, is negotiated under the accusation that the accused caused his death with a serious beating attack on the homeless.

The public prosecutor has charged charges for murder, considering the murder feature of low motives as fulfilled. According to information from Allgäuer Zeitung have directed verbal attacks against the victim and stolen money.

Details of the incident and the negotiations

The accused is said to have attacked the homeless on May 7, 2023 with several punches, including on the temple, which led to a serious injury. The homeless fell and hit the floor with the back of the head and reported the attack even with the police. Ultimately, he died in the hospital, with an autopsy to find brain bleeding as the cause of death, as Br.de reported.

The negotiation takes place in front of the second youth chamber because the defendant was a minor at the time of the crime. The meetings are not public, which means that neither the press nor spectators have access to the courtroom. Seven negotiation days are initially scheduled and a judgment could fall in mid -February 2024. The accused's lawyer plans to say that the young person says in court and depicts the crime differently than indicated in the indictment.
