Fabian murder case: Lawyer draws parallels to the Rebecca Reusch case
There are current developments in the case surrounding the murder of eight-year-old Fabian from Güstrow, who was discovered lifeless in a water pond near Klein Upahl on October 14th. A 29-year-old woman, who is considered a strong suspect, was arrested on November 6th and has been in custody ever since. This arrest took place against the background that the investigators had already been looking at the woman for some time. Her defense attorney, Andreas Ohm, sheds light on the situation with a warning voice and draws parallels to the case of the missing Rebecca Reusch, which was in the headlines in 2019. In this case, a suspect was arrested but never found guilty. [FR.de].
Christine Habetha, Fabian's mother's lawyer, comes to a different perspective. Her assessment is completely different: she sees the arrest warrant as based on “facts that can be used in court”. The suspect herself has remained silent so far and burst into tears after her arrest. It remains unclear what motivation lies behind this terrible act, especially since the police suspect that Fabian was not killed at the scene.
Investigations and clues
The investigation is still in full swing and the police are currently evaluating information from the television program “Aktenzeichen XY”. An important aspect that comes into focus is a charred glove that was found near where Fabian's body was found and is now intended to help further solve the crime. The boy's body was probably set on fire to cover up any traces, which poses a new challenge for investigators. The criminal police have expressed suspicion that Fabian may have been killed at another location before his body was dumped.
Against the background of the general development of crime in Germany, which, according to the Police Crime Statistics (PKS) of the Federal Criminal Police Office, will see a decrease in registered crimes in 2024, the population has nevertheless lost a certain sense of security. Although statistics show that crimes against life such as murder and manslaughter only account for 0.1% of cases, the fear of such acts remains present; According to Statista Statista, people in particular in city states such as Berlin, Bremen or Hamburg are at a higher risk of becoming victims of a crime.
The Fabian case raises particularly dramatic questions, not only because of the nature of the crime, but also because of the way investigations are carried out and may also be influenced by public perception. The coming weeks will be crucial in further uncovering the involvement and true background of this tragic incident.
