Riot on Weiberfastnacht: Trouble in the marquee ends in court!

Denklinger Festzelt, Waldbröl, Deutschland - An incident that happened in a marquee in Denklingen on February 8 during the women's fastnight. What exactly happened there is a mystery to those involved, especially for the accused Petra O., who had to answer for assault.

at 11:30 p.m., when the celebrations were in full swing, Petra O. 20-year-old Jenny U. is said to have put a punch in the face. A scenario that many found surprisingly by many in the celebrating crowd. "I didn't know what happened at all," said the 38-year-old nurse. Typical for evening hours on women, alcohol was also involved, which confused the memories of those present.

The confrontation in the marquee

The accused later reported that she had gone to the marquee with friends after you had previously enjoyed some drinks in a different location. Her description of the evening was characterized by a "total scramble" at the bar. She mentioned that a glass of beer herself was poured into her face, and at first she did not understand what was going on. "I didn't see anything anymore," she remarked, and could not explain why she should have distributed a punch that she did not classify as not punishable.

To clarify the situation, three of her friends also performed as witnesses. Most of them supported their girlfriend's representation by telling Petra O. by another woman. The fact that the beer glass fell and landed on it also seemed clear to them. However, no one could recall the identity of the other woman and her costume.

The role of testimony

statement against statement was in the room and did not make the decision for the court easy. There was also another witness who was independent of the two circles of friends. She watched the situation from a distance and told the judges that she saw Petra O., who had "wet and sour" after the incident and also showered another woman with her drink. "Then I went in between," she added, which may have increased the severity of the incident.

After the conclusion of the evidence, judge Kevin Haase decided to suspend the negotiation and to conduct a legal conversation. Ultimately, the procedure against Petra O. was discontinued, but on the condition that it makes a payment of 300 euros to a charitable institution. The judge expressed that he could understand that the 38-year-old felt provoked by the beer glass and explained that it was not in the sense of the court that this story of drunk should lead to a precaution.

This incident at Weiberfastnacht shows how quickly celebrations can transform into clashes, especially when alcohol is involved. An aftermath that could be an apprenticeship for everyone involved, how important it is to preserve control even in happy moments and avoid conflicts.
