Process - Life imprisonment for murder of senior citizen in Schwäbisch Hall
The 32-year-old defendant in the murder trial for the deaths of senior citizens in Schwäbisch Hall has been sentenced to life imprisonment. The judge announced on Friday at Heilbronn District Court that he had been found especially guilty and ordered preventive detention. Around a year ago, the man from Serbia had beaten two elderly women to death in their homes in the Schwäbisch Hall area "using massive violence" in order to obtain assets. The crimes had moved the population at the time, according to the judge.
