Strangled Mother with Cable Tie: Life Imprisonment for Murder in Thuringia - Murder Retrial Ordered in High-Profile Case
The Supreme Court has ordered a retrial in a high-profile murder case, overturning the previous manslaughter verdict. The man, convicted of strangling a woman with cable ties while she slept, now faces a murder charge of premeditation.
The initial trial in 2021 resulted in a 10-year prison sentence for manslaughter and dangerous bodily harm. However, the Supreme Court justices have now sent the case back to the Regional Court, questioning the initial verdict.
The retrial will also consider charges of theft, property damage, and bodily injury from 2021 and 2022. This is the second trial in the case, with the first trial's outcome now potentially subject to change.
The man, initially sentenced to life imprisonment for murder, will now face a retrial for the murder charge of premeditation. The Regional Court will reconsider the evidence and potentially deliver a new verdict in the case.
