Gina-Lisa Lohfink judgment: “A mockery of genuine rape victims” – SPIEGEL ONLINE

As Judge Antje Ebner afternoon announced the verdict against Gina-Lisa Lohfink – 80 days sets of 250 euros for false accusation – they come only once close. Lohfink-supporters stand up from their seats and left under boos the hall. And Lohfink, the day of the verdict high neck in white suit, gets up and storms, accompanied by her manager, outside. The reasoning that follows this afternoon, they do not want to listen.

Over four years, the process moves now. First it was to Adult Videos, that should have been distributed after a night threes against the will of the model, then it became a rape accusation. And this in turn an indictment Gina-Lisa Lohfink. The case about the reported “Washington Post”, he split Germany. He fired the debate on the intensification of sexual offenses. And under other federal politicians also family minister Manuela Schwesig had sided with Lohfink: A “Stop” is clearly

On this day take Lohfink – from our own point of view a victim of sexist justice – the opportunity for a last word. , It is in this process at the same time their first: You do not stand in court, to become famous, because she was already, she says tearfully. You have sex not wanted and not the movies. It is perverse, what the men had done to her, the pain they’ll carry with them until her death. They had no porn actress, not a whore or bitch. And then: “I’m considering now to make my high school and study.”

zero regard to co-Drop

Also Lohfinks defense is after four years time ‘still good for a surprise: On the last day of the trial defender Burkhard Benecken pulls the certificate a gynecologist from his briefcase, which had demanded the investigator of the Office of criminal Investigation has 2012 Design. Lohfink had claimed this was “shocked” by the sight of their wounds. Ebner reads the examination findings of the gynecologist: “. No fresh or older bruises, no scratches, no injuries”

Then the toxicological evaluators Torsten Bins check Domaß of the Berlin Charité makes clear what he thinks of Lohfinks assertion that she was probably stunned with whacked Drops: Nothing. Zero reference to the use of all-in-drop: “The woman prosecutor and I know video, were administered where demonstrably whacked Drop, where one sees unconscious women who are rumgeschleppt as Gumipuppen” says the expert. “They can not dance and smoke and talk, can not call her manager and eat pizza.” All things that, according to the evidence did Lohfink the period in question.

Lawyer of Gina-Lisa Lohfink

prosecutor Corinna Gögge had before or after the current financial circumstances of his client inquires the defender: for 2014 Lohfink had indicated a net income of 31,000 euros, for 2015: expected 18,000 euros. The date for calculating the amount of the daily rate applies, however: now. “Is it true that your client will move into the jungle camp, Gage: 150,000 euros, and that even an amount is to be gone?”

“Woman Lohfink sees itself as a victim – this is nonsense”

Gögge rises to the plea: Incorrect suspicions would more often than thought, and often led they are not an indictment. Because the Beschuldigerinnen sometime back rowed. The opportunity was missed Lohfink. “Woman Lohfink sees itself as a victim who was taken on the trail,” she says. “That’s nonsense.”

At her place in the dock Lohfink teeters annoyed with her silver stilettos while Gögge again the inconsistencies of the case can pass by: The first lawsuit, in which it was stated that there was “consensual” sex. The night they spent after the alleged rape by one of the alleged rapists. The phone call that Lohfink the next afternoon led from the apartment in which she was allegedly still being held and threatened. In it she told her manager, they still eat a pizza and then get to come. Gögge: “If she has the opportunity to make calls, why not then selects the 112″ to bring

The Innocents By making false accusations targeted by investigations, was a crime of some weight, says Gögge. Especially for rape, punitive: between two and ten years. At the end it demands 80 days sets of 300 euro. But one thing is important to her to say: have so brazenly, as the defense operated the case with a “permanent distortion of the facts”, it was “a mockery and deception of all women and men who are actually victims of a crime”.

“a gigantic success woman Lohfink”

defender Benecken sees it quite differently in his plea: “This is the case of a new law has led that improves in Germany the sexual autonomy of women, “he says. “This is a huge success by Mrs Lohfink.” If the actions of the prosecutor in the case Lohfink do school, “then good night for all women who are victims of sexual violence, or at least go to the police, claiming that”.

Then he comes in relation to the prosecution allegation , the surprising conclusion that his client had never accused the two men of rape. So not explicitly anyway, and therefore they can also have anyone wrongly accused. The logical consequence: acquittal

Now that is the verdict. As again calm has returned in the hall, says Judge Antje Ebner, there were many questions that they do not have to ask, because the defender this woman Lohfink did not allow. You would have, for example, like to ask how it could be that a woman with painful wounds of a rape the next evening fit enough feels to again have sex with one of her alleged rapists. Well, not to clarify everything.

Judge throws Ebner Defense self-promotion before

“It can be seen not vanilla sex,” Ebner says on the video. “What you see is not for everyone. But nowhere is seen that woman Lohfink did not feel good.” Also presented in the morning certificate – no injuries, everything is normal -. Show that Lohfink aware untruthfully a crime have shown, “with all the consequences for the displayed”

Ebner will straighten out something at the end of this process, the the defender has just praised even more than milestone in Sexualstrafrecht: It is not “the case,” explains Ebner addressed the audience, so no huge success for Lohfink. Instead, the operations in the New Year’s Eve in Cologne had already meant that Germany be Sexualstrafrecht tightened – and thus, as other countries have been the so-called “Istanbul Convention” implemented.

Unlike its defenders say, a woman had also never have to prove that they had fought during the act, so that the sex is considered rape: “We have already men convicted, even though we had nothing else as the statement of the woman and the statement of the man. ” Woman Lohfink there have however preferred not to speak in court, instead, in the presence of their defense in the media. But the defenders had the procedure for “not process relevant interests” misused – ie self-promotion.

parade of #TeamGinaLisa

Defender Benecken scroll demonstratively in a book, while Ebner further discharges air toward defense: In the general public, have “organs of justice “aware of facts twisted. “This fundamental principles of law have been violated.”

Then, the judgment is over. Before the hall, the cameras depend on defenders Benecken, who speaks of a “black day for women in Germany.”

Outside the waiting supporters from #TeamGinaLisa, call them: “Makes bands, making them flat, bloke ‘s in every city.”
