Blood act in Magdeburg: man stabs opponents after a dispute over self -talk

On Tuesday, the trial against Alexander H. (26) began before the district court in Magdeburg, who has to answer for homicide. The accused man is accused of having added fatal injuries to a 51-year-old Frank F. at a tram stop on the night of April 7th. According to the indictment, the trigger for the act of violence was an inner monologue of the victim.

The public prosecutor formulates the allegations as extremely serious: Alexander H. should first hit Frank F. and then returned with a 20-centimeter long knife, which he had taken from a friend, to start again. The fatal stitch hit the man's pericardium, which finally led to his death. The argument of the public prosecutor, Peter Schinner, indicates that this return to the crime scene is subject to a deeper intention, which could result in a possible conviction for murder.

Development of the violence spirals

The events this morning escalated rapidly and ended in an act of extreme violence. H. confessed that the incident was not intended - he had only taken the knife as a protective agent. In a statement read by his lawyer, he admitted that the situation had come out of control. "The death of the man was never my goal," said the defense.

An exciting turn in the case is that it was initially assumed that the dispute had already started in a tram. However, this was refuted when two witnesses attended the brutal assault at the stop at the Cracauer Tor. Alexander H. clearly placed her statements as a murderer who had put the first acts.

As part of the negotiations, it is also discussed whether H. may have been influenced by drugs or alcohol in his actions, which could reduce the severity of his crime. The leading investigators reported that the violence between the two men appeared unprepared and unmotivated, since there were no signs of a conflict in advance.

The process will continue in the coming days, whereby it is expected that further details about the course of the crime and the environment of the accused will come to light. The public is shocked after the descriptions in the first days of the trial. The complexity of the case and the tragic circumstances raise questions about the prevention of such outbreaks of violent behavior, which not only provide cause for concern in Magdeburg, but also in other cities.
