Germany: Woman jailed for ‘insulting’ teenage gang rapist

A young German woman is set to go to prison for a hate crime for sending “insulting” messages to a man involved in the gang rape of a 15-year-old girl. Critics have noted that she will serve a prison sentence while he, a rapist, received a suspended sentence.

The 20-year-old woman has to go to a youth detention center for 48 hours because she sent a message to the defendant in 2021 after his identity was circulated. The court in Hamburg had ruled that eight of nine men accused of raping a teenager should not serve a prison sentence.

The woman sent WhatsApp messages to one of the perpetrators, calling him a “dishonorable rapist pig” and a “disgusting monster.” She asked him if he was ashamed when he looked in the mirror and said that if he went anywhere he would get “a slap in the face.”

The rapist reported her to the police, and now she has been punished by judges who reportedly found her guilty of a hate crime and ruled that she acted in an “insulting and threatening” manner. This is a chilling reflection of the growing disorder at the intersection of immigration, “hate speech” and women’s rights in Europe.

It was a case that left Germany and much of the rest of the world “stunned”. A young girl who was just fifteen years old at the time of the brutal and lengthy attack – a child in other words – was raped by nine men in a public park in Hamburg.

The child showed signs of drunkenness, isolated himself from his friends and was raped by nine men in the city park over several hours.

First, four of the men took the girl into a bush and abused and raped her. They also stole her cell phone and wallet. Then two more men raped her, and when she met another of the men, he raped her too.

None of the men tried to help her, no one showed mercy, compassion, kindness or even normal human decency. It is one thing to read headlines about gang rape, but to read about this being played out on an abused child should fill us with disgust.

The rapists, meanwhile, used group chats to invite other groups of men to the crime scene, explaining where they could find the victim while simultaneously telling their disgusting friends that there were no witnesses near the defenseless teenager. They even started sharing videos of their depravity – another horror the girl has to live with.

Three more of these depraved men then dragged the girl into the bushes to sexually abuse and rape her again. One of them was acquitted because the court did not know whether he was involved in the last gang rape.

The child was raped by at least nine men over a period of two and a half hours. It is a harrowing, traumatizing experience that we really cannot comprehend. The mindset of the people who commit such a crime is also inexplicable. It is animalistic behavior without empathy.

According to one expert, the group factor can be a strong motivator for this type of aggressive, impulsive and violent behavior. “The men involved in gang rape may be more concerned about their reputation among each other and their status as dominant men than about the lives of the women they attack,” said forensic psychologist Dr. NG Berrill.

The rapists may not care that they are “harming another person,” he explained – and that was clearly the case in Hamburg. They made videos and invited their friends – how lacking in empathy and decency do you have to be to allow yourself to engage in such sick behavior?

The victim was found suffering from hypothermia and had to be taken to intensive care. The court heard that he was suffering from post-traumatic stress disorder. DNA evidence showed that semen from nine of the attackers was found on the victim.

Dr Berrill also noted that gang violence by men is most often directed against women, who are often seen as socially inferior. While Western culture – and the kind of machismo that is all too prevalent in certain sports in particular – is certainly trending in the wrong direction, it would be absurd to ignore the outsized role that immigration and a culture hostile to women’s rights play in the disturbing cases of gang rape currently being seen across Europe.

Accordingly MirrorAccording to BILD, four of the men accused of gang rape were from Hamburg, four others have Armenian, Afghan, Kuwaiti and Montenegrin nationality, and the nationality of the other two was unclear. They showed no remorse during the trial, BILD reported. Since the perpetrators were between 17 and 21 years old at the time, the trial was held before a youth court and the public was excluded from the proceedings.

It is hard to believe, but last December the Hamburg Regional Court sentenced only one of the rapists – a Serb – to a prison term of two years and nine months without parole. The other eight defendants got off with probation and some “instructions for educational support”.

In other words, eight of the nine rapists were released. The outrage was further fuelled by comments from psychiatrist Nahlah Saimeh, who reportedly appeared in court as an expert witness.

she said Mirror that the group attack may have been an outlet for “frustration” due to “migration experiences and socio-cultural homelessness”.

“Disorganized, unprepared migration experiences and socio-cultural homelessness increase the risk of addiction and psychosis,” she said.

“Sex is also a means of venting frustration and anger, a means of dispelling sadness and emptiness, and in a group of men with the same fate, it also creates identity and strengthens the group feeling.”

She added: “The victim becomes a pure instrument of his own sexual gratification. It is about an immediate need, an opportunity, an inner conviction and the right of the strongest.”

Your comments seem to draw a very strange dichotomy between understanding the difficulties that migrants can face and women’s rights not to be victims of gang rape. This frankly disturbing stance has been repeatedly hinted at in some media reports and by some commentators recently.

Just think of the attempts to cover up the terrible events on New Year’s Eve 2015 in Cologne, when 1,200 women were sexually harassed in the city centre by a large group of Arab or North African men, as the police finally admitted.

At first, the police said the night had been “largely peaceful.” Only when the women persisted did the truth come to light. Among other things, it became known that similar attacks had already occurred in other cities in Germany.

Suspicions of a cover-up grew when it emerged that officials had asked to tone down a preliminary report on the attacks, which described “rapes, sexual assaults and thefts by a large group of foreign nationals.” Cologne police were asked to remove the word “rape” from their description of the night’s attacks.

In Britain, the now infamous rape of thousands of girls in areas such as Rotherham and Rochdale by grooming gangs predominantly of Pakistani descent was not fully investigated for years for fear of stoking “racial tensions”. Girls as young as 11 were raped, kidnapped and beaten for years, but circumventing identity politics was deemed more important than their right not to be sexually abused.

In February this year, an alleged gang rape of a 13-year-old child in a public park in Sicily by seven Egyptian migrants raised fears that an international news agency might play into the hands of the “far right”, despite the agency acknowledging that at least two similarly gruesome cases had occurred in Italy the previous summer: in one of them, a group of seven men allegedly raped a 19-year-old girl in Palermo, and in another, nine men were arrested for allegedly “raping two cousins ​​aged 10 and 12 near Naples and broadcasting the attack live on social media”.

What does it say about the media and much of the establishment that they sometimes seem more concerned about the impact of gang rapes by foreigners on the status of migrants than about the actual victims – usually young women who have endured a cruel and brutal ordeal?

We saw it in this country when the media largely ignored the powerful testimony of Ashling Murphy’s friend Ryan Casey when he made profound and compelling observations about migration and violent crime. In fact, the young man whose girlfriend – the “love of his life” – had been murdered was even accused of inciting hatred.

The way commentary on trends surrounding violent crimes against women where migrants are involved is deeply wrong, and this trend does not serve the many decent and law-abiding people who come here to work and who are equally appalled by these attacks.

Either women’s safety is paramount, or it isn’t. In the strange and shifting media and establishment hierarchy of who takes precedence in terms of coverage and protection, it’s obvious that women are no longer the primary concern.

The young German woman who now has a criminal record for expressing her anger and frustration may have broken the law. But I suspect that many women who read her messages will agree with her. She should not go to prison. The men who raped a 15-year-old girl should go to prison.
