(September 7, 2013 at 2:15 am)The Germans are coming Wrote: I know of that case, it was frequently reported here because the woman is a German national.
Apparently the detective wanted to make a career by solving this case faster, no matter who he arrested.
In this case, the son of the woman was murdered. There was no direct evidence linking her to the murder. The man who most likely did it was a friend of the father.
Yet somehow, she, the father and the fathers friend all landed in jail.
Yes, sadly jailing people is a national obsession here although execution seems like the preferred remedy wherever possible.
