Riedemann said the soldier blamed the victims for the failure of his marriage. He planned her death for a long time and finally put it into action. This gave the defendant a feeling of satisfaction, “no remorse or sadness.” The only thing the German didn’t want was the death of a three-year-old girl, said the psychiatrist. “He felt noticeably sorry for the infanticide.”
According to the public prosecutor’s office, on the night of March 1st the paratrooper acted like a house-to-house fight, driven by hatred and revenge. He is said to have broken into the victims’ houses in the Rotenburg district of Lower Saxony.
In Scheeßel, the German murdered his former partner’s 30-year-old new partner and his 55-year-old mother. The soldier is then said to have shot his estranged wife’s 33-year-old best friend and her three-year-old daughter in Bothel.
