A pair from Hesse received suspended sentences after promoting hatred with a calendar.
A calendar with content fueling hatred towards particular groups was under the control of a 77-year-old suspect. He worked alongside a 74-year-old co-defendant to publish the material. The pair produced a thousand copies, with hundreds possibly sold or distributed.
The Fritzlar District Court punished both individuals with fines in September 2022. However, the defendants and the public prosecutor filed separate appeals. The defendants' appeal was dismissed, but the public prosecutor's was granted. The District Court cleared the original third defendant of charges in 2022.
