About one murder by the mother of the killer of her child
For many who are “lucky” to get into court as an injured party, sometimes there is a great desire to pick up a gun and personally administer justice. Some people do just that.
On March 6, 1981, during the third trial of the alleged rapist and murderer of 7-year-old Anna Bachmeier, her mother, 30-year-old Marianne Bachmeier, in the district courtroom of the German city of Lübeck, shot the defendant, 35-year-old cold storage worker Klaus Grabowski, with a Beretta M1934 pistol. , firing eight bullets at him.
Being arrested, and under the weight of evidence, Grabovki almost immediately confessed to having kidnapped the girl, fearing that Anna would talk about what in the language of the police report is called “committing depraved acts.” Grabovki also spoke in detail about how he strangled the child with her tights, put the body in a box, which he then buried on the bank of the canal.
The only thing that the defendant categorically denied was committing sexual violence against the girl. He claimed that the 7-year-old girl liked what he was doing to her, and she herself came to him for this instead of school.
Marianne Bachmeier understood better than anyone what the defendant was basing his line of defense on - she was 9 years old when she was raped by a neighbor, but her parents did not report it to the police. Subsequently, Marianna, already an adult, was raped a second time, but the offender got off with a suspended sentence, since the court decided that the victim herself provoked him.
Marianna called the main reason for lynching not even revenge, but the desire to silence Grabovki and not tell nasty things about her child in court.
At the same time, the owner of the “Tipasa” pub (it still exists in Lübeck today) could hardly be called a respectable bruger. She became pregnant the first time at 16, the second time at 18, both times from different men outside of marriage, and abandoned her first two children, giving them up for adoption. But after the birth of her third daughter, Marianna was sterilized and could no longer give birth.
And another interesting detail - Marianna was the daughter of an SS veteran, and she shot very accurately and skillfully. Of the eight shots, only the first bullet missed the target, and the other seven hit Grabovsky, who died instantly in the courtroom in front of the judges, lawyers and the public.
Subsequently, Marianne Bachmeier left Germany, lived in Nigeria and Italy, where she worked in a school and a hospice for the hopelessly ill, returning to her hometown only when she learned that she had cancer. She died at the age of 46, and at her request was buried in the grave of her daughter Anna.
