Gli avvocati di Jérôme Boateng cambiano le carte in tavola
The judge in the assault case against Jerome Boateng is determined. She even postponed her retirement to conclude the proceedings. Boateng's lawyers are currently focusing on his ex-girlfriend, Sherin S., who accuses the footballer of assault.
The case between Jerome Boateng and his ex-girlfriend Sherin S. is intricate. The first two trial days were filled with heated accusations and counter-accusations. Specifically, it concerns a vacation that the footballer took with his former partner, who is also the mother of their twin children, in the Caribbean in 2018. Sherin S. accuses Boateng of physically assaulting her during the trip. He denies this and accuses her of aggressive behavior in return.
At the third trial day before the Munich Regional Court, Boateng's lawyers attempted to turn the tables again, as reported by RTL. It was suggested once more that it was not Boateng, but Sherin S., who was actually prone to violence. Real fireworks in the courtroom were caused this time by two summonses, none other than Judge Susanne Hemmerich.
Given that everyone had hoped for a short trial in which the judgment might even have fallen on July 19, it now has to last a little longer. In the end, Judge Hemmerich, who seemed visibly dissatisfied with the previous handling of the case, announced that she wanted to hear all the witnesses in the proceedings.
"I have withdrawn my application for early retirement," the judge declared and gave all parties involved a promise: "I will finish this trial."
The legal dispute over the incidents during Boateng and Sherin S.'s Caribbean vacation has been going on for years. This is now the fourth time that a court has dealt with the dispute. In the second instance, Boateng was sentenced to a fine of 120 days of community service each at a cost of 10,000 euros - a total of 1.2 million euros. However, the Bavarian Higher Regional Court quashed the judgment, so the trial is now taking place again. Judge Hemmerich seems determined to bring the proceedings to a legally binding conclusion personally. Until then, Boateng enjoys the presumption of innocence.
In light of the allegations, Jerome Boateng's legal team has raised questions about his ex-girlfriend's history with domestic violence in entertainment media outlets. Despite the complexity of the case, the trials have been filled with intense accusations and counter-accusations, revolving around a vacation in the Caribbean in 2018.
Giudice Susanne Hemmerich, che gestisce il processo, ha espresso la sua frustrazione per il precedente affrontamento e ha annunciato personalmente di assicurare che tutte le procedure relative alle accuse contro Jerome Boateng vengano esaurite in maniera equa e giusta, assicurando un esito giusto.
