Attacks in a minibus

Parallel to this incident, the trial against a 78-year-old former minibus driver is ongoing for the serious sexual abuse of a then nine-year-old girl. Loud osthessen-news.de Witnesses reported that the defendant was very popular with the children on the bus because he regularly handed out candy and lent them his cell phone. The educator to whom the victim told about the attacks in 2020 revealed that the girl was often under pressure and complained of headaches. She was very afraid that her mother would find out about the abuse, so the girl told her: “Mom shouldn’t be sad!”

A psychiatric expert came to the conclusion that the defendant did not have a serious mental disorder, but merely a “pedophilic undercurrent,” which classified the relapse prognosis as below average. It remains to be seen how the trial, which will continue with the pleadings on February 17th, will develop. Here too, the public is excluded.
