This tragic turn of events has brought the SOKO Wismar onto the scene, which is now leading the investigation and wants to clarify the circumstances surrounding Ingo's death.

A nationwide student survey shows that up to 43.7% of male students said they had committed criminal offenses. Youth crime is therefore not a marginal phenomenon, but a problem affecting society as a whole that deserves more attention. The bpb explains that…
A look into the future
The tragedy surrounding the life of Ingo Wohlers is a powerful reminder to society.

Wismar faces the challenge of maintaining trust in the help systems, while SOKO Wismar does everything it can to shed light on the incidents that have occurred.
