Because a man from Kirchseeon had threatened, insulted and spat at fellow citizens several times, as well as sexually harassed a young woman, the 54-year-old unemployed man had to answer to the Ebersberg district court.
Judge Vera Hörauf needed a whole 20 minutes to list the eight offences committed by the native Togolese in 2021 while intoxicated. For example, the defendant entered the playground of a Kirchseeon lunchtime childcare centre and shouted and mobbed pupils and teachers. After a community worker asked him to leave, he threatened to kill him.
On another day in the Kirchseeon REWE supermarket, a female employee pointed out to the drunk that he had been banned from the premises for a long time. In response, he spat on her thigh. “And that was in times of Corona,” the witness said indignantly. Only a few weeks later, when the man from Kirchseeon was drunk on the suburban train, he approached a 17-year-old girl. While doing so, he began to talk to her and stroked her thigh without being asked. “Totally unpleasant,” the witness characterized the incident.
Here the accused spoke up for the first time and asked: “Doesn’t a black man have the right to touch a white woman?”. When asked by the judge if this question was meant seriously, he answered “yes” without further ado. In addition, there were several riots in the homeless shelter. There he insulted fellow residents and officials as “Nazis”, “assholes” and “racists”, threatened them with the words “I kill you” and threw furniture out of the window.
