Family man in court: Death of his daughter shakes Memmingen

A dramatic case shakes Memmingen! At the district court, the trial of a 43-year-old father, who is accused of killing his six-month-old daughter. The incident that occurred in November 2023 is now being uncovered: the baby died of serious brain injuries caused by external violence. The defendant claims that it was a terrible accident, but the circumstances throw dark shadows on his story.

On the said evening, the father sat on the sofa, his daughter next to him. Suddenly he felt a stinging pain in the back and let the child fall on the table. After a brief shaking, the baby began to cry, which calmed him down. The family continued their evening without the father revealed the incident of his partner. The next morning, however, the horror broke out: the baby no longer reacted, and the mother immediately called the emergency services. The reactions of the parents when the emergency services arrived voted alarmingly - while the father broke out into tears, the mother was initially caught.

The process takes up speed

The public prosecutor illuminates the upbringing of the father and asks if he can remember the basic security instructions for dealing with small children. His answers reveal doubts: he cannot remember the instructions, but knows that shaking is harmful. Video recordings of his police questioning show that his statements largely match, but the questions of the indictment are relentless.

On the second day of the trial, the emergency services who received the emergency call were also interviewed. Their descriptions of the emotional reaction of the parents reinforce the dramatic course of the process. A doctor who treated the baby in the hospital confirmed that injuries had already been determined beforehand that could indicate possible abuse but did not clearly indicate it. The next negotiation date has already been determined: On November 13, the mother of the late infant will testify. A case that puts the nerves of everyone involved!
