      German prisons are not as comfortable as claimed in this video. Yes, prisoners are not treated like animals as in many US prisons, but privileges are not granted every inmate. Those who committed non-violent crimes and/or will soon be released are being prepared to re-integrate into society, but prisons are no hotels. You have inmate on inmate crime, very restricted time outside your cell, and overall: it’s still prison and the inmates are still locked away & not allowed to roam around freely. There are options to spend the day outside, but again, that’s for those who have almost finished their sentence and found work outside prison. And: if the killer is convicted of murder & deemed a continuous threat to society, he could be imprisoned for actual life, it’s called „Sicherungsverwahrung“

      @@ublu3631 this is very helpful context! Thank you. That’s partly why I was careful to say “seemingly”, knowing that I haven’t done the due diligence to form a personal opinion on the facts of how prisoners are treated, and knowing that there is variability in treatment based on the individual, the crime, the judge and the fact that I have an unbalanced view due to the knowledge of how criminals in the US are treated. Is a very, VERY low baseline to start from. Reform is needed here so it’s hard to say what “good” or “adequate” actually looks like. But I think Stephanie’s sentiment is still valid, he is getting off too easy.

I'm Filipino American and I've had weird ass comments said to me specifically about me being submissive or giving massages. No shame for walking his cat. He ain't weird for that. He's weird and awful for seeing Asian women as objects for pleasure.

    Hi, I'm German and I just wanted to point out, that while our cells are more like dingy hostel rooms, a murderer is most likely not allowed as many freedoms as mentioned, especially the ones that have an added sentence of "special level of grievance". I think he will fall under this. If he's given this sentence he's also not getting out after 15 years. The earliest could be 20 years, but is more likely longer or could even be lifelong if he's considered a risk to society, e.g. if the specialists think he'd commit a crime again. In such a case they'll reevaluate his incarceration after a set amount of years again and again. If he doesn't confess, shows no remorse and specialists think he could do it again he won't be released.
    We do all this because the German criminal law beliefs in rehabilitation. Therefore even a murderer could find rehabilitation under special circumstances.
    We did have the death penalty once, but it's outlawed on a federal level.
    I understand how, especially as a family someone would want a life for a life though.
    But overall I'm glad our system works towards rehabilitation, even if the system isn't perfect.

    I am from Bavaria and this case made huge ways. Some newspapers speculated on his motive. Apparently prior to his visit to Germany he had been online flirting/dating a 18 year old Japanese woman from Egypt. Then the woman moved to Germany and he decided to meet her. There was a falling out and she stopped talking to him, though it's unclear whether it happened before or after his decision to come to Germany. Anyway she refused to meet with him. The speculation: he was so enraged over this rejection he decided to take it out on these two random Asian women.

    just wanted to add: Ludwig II is actually gone insane (but still my fav king). His mental illness sure played its part but as a person who researched and studied Ludwig II and Bavaria, I must say that his gentle, anti-war soul made him the “mad king”. He is maybe the only king in the whole history, to believe that the art could save the world from the bloody chaos. He never wanted to be a king at the first place, he just had to be and -he was never a soldier. He was pressured to be “the king”. He was constantly humiliated, made fun of. Just think of someone who’s trying to teach any form of art to the children so that when they grow up, they won’t turn into pro-war politicians, soldiers, citizens (of course that plan wouldn’t work in a world like this) He was a true dreamer and got lost tragically in his dreamland in the end. That’s why his obsession is seen in his castle’s architecture, inside and outside. There are even multiple stages to perform Wagner’s operas (esp. Tristan and Isolde) which again he was madly obsessed with.
    In short, all of his life he wanted art to give life a meaning, a light, a hope. In his head, the beauty of art was the cure of all illdoing. And of course, the cruel reality wouldn’t agree with that. He simply lost his mind day by day.
    Why did I tell you all about this?
    Because we are all like Ludwig, in front of the monsters like this one in the video. We all find it hard to believe how cruel all this can get. We sometimes get scared. But we move on. (most of us mentally unstable but yeah move on)

      There is no official legal classification of hate crimes in Germany apparently; though even if they're investigated as ordinary crimes, there are still some leeways.
      "States now have specialized prosecutors trained in politically-motivated cases, but due to caseload and the duty roster, duty prosecutors may have to take on prosecutions of a hate motivated crimes on the day of the hearing even if they do not have specialized training or experience.
      The failure by police to record or investigate a case as a “politically motivated” hate crime means that the prosecutor is then unlikely to pursue evidence that the crime was indeed motivated by hate in the prosecution of the offenses. This is despite the fact that prosecutors have independent authority to order the police to pursue that line of inquiry in their investigation if that they are not doing so. Where evidence of hate motivation does not surface during a prosecution, it is also highly unlikely that the prosecutor would call for that factor to be taken into account during sentencing in the event of a conviction.
      Justice ministries in some of the key states and the Federal authorities argue that hate motivation is taken into account as a factor in sentencing when appropriate. While this might be the case, victims of hate crimes, victim support groups and criminal lawyers suggest that it is often left to the lawyers acting for the crime victim to call for this factor to be taken into account if evidence of hate motivation emerges at trial"

    I've seen how dangerous and entitled fetishistic males are towards women they feel entitled to (I'm Latina and have had some scares from mostly American males when I worked in an airport in my country. I apparently fit their hot Latina with an accent stereotype and somehow I'm obligated to be attracted to them 🙄).
    My bestie that is Japanese was yelled at by a male tourist in her own country since she wouldn't turn around to look at him and he raged calling her racist cos she wouldn't give him her number after yelling at her. (Like why WOULD she give an unhinged aggressive male her number? These men ain't right in the head)
    These creeps stereotype us and make themselves delusional about how we truly are. Dehumanization is so common with them because we're not seen as people that can reject them. We're "obligated" to give them pleasure and fulfill their self-centered fantasies.
    Heck they do this to women in their own countries too. Look at the "Nice Guys" that harass, insult and shame women for not wanting to be with them due to their "niceness". They simply can't comprehend that women have their own wants and are people that make choices.
    This vile man that did this to these poor girls didn't see them as humans and having rights as humans. He's one of the many entitled male creatures that think women are just disposable objects of pleasure.
    I really hope he rots for this. He should do jail time in both Germany and the US but I know it won't happen and he'll probably be allowed free while still alive (although older) without feeling an ounce of remorse for what he did because he's a monster.

They will rip a man to shreds who tries to use them for their own amusement, and this is what men should expect if they don’t understand that all women are people, and boundaries.

    As an asian woman I've noticed a lot of people treating me like a pet in some ways. I hate it. I've gone to visit my mother's home country and I'm always so disgusted by the foreigners. They believe they can talk to us and behave in horrendous ways. They pat us on the heads. I over hear the men saying they can do whatever they want with "these" people. I have family members who have been SA and discarded like trash and there's nothing they can do. I am American born and get in trouble when we visit because I am loud and vocal.

This story is so scary because you don't think another tourist would try to assault you and kill you in broad daylight at a public tourist attraction. It's insane. This man should be punished for what he did.
    Not all people who are attracted to Asians specifically are like this guy, but yeah, there are some weirdos out there who think that Asian women can't resist white men and I've had the misfortune of encountering people like that online. The first time, I was a teenager and there was a dude who kept telling me (an Asian woman) that Asian women loved white men and Asian women go crazy for them even when I was telling him that's not the case, like wtf.

I know for a fact her dad was often racist towards her and made it sound like it was her issue for being born that way.

    As a black woman this hits different, idk what it is with people who have fetishes for certain racial groups, sure it isn't always a creepy thing but a lot of the time it is , it gives me the creeps. I have encountered so many men ( of varying races besides my own obvs) with a fetish for black women (rudely referred to as jungle fever) and often they lead with such invasive and sexual questions , taking liberties with their over friendliness and then they expect almost a pat on the back or some sort of praise when they say they "like black girls" . Idk if this is the same that Asian women experience but I can only assume it follows a similar pattern and its so degrading and objectifying, it is not a compliment for someone to find your race a sexual turn on and only seek to converse with you because of their fetish , it also makes me uncomfortable to be alone with such people or voice my distaste because what if they become aggressive if I say that its weird or wrong to think like that . :/ Then I hear of situations like this and it scares me even more , like how can just being a woman be one of the most dangerous situations to exist in in this day and age

      As an Asian American female this has pretty much been my experience with being fetishized for being Asian (my family came from Korea). It gets referred to as "yellow fever" more often than not and it is extremely disheartening to see others having to go through this. If anyone ever tells me they have a fetish for certain racial groups, I immediately feel creeped out and do not want to talk to them anymore because 9/10 times it just leads to conversations I really don't want to get into. In my experiences with people who do this, it almost feels like this weird elitist kind of pov someone has where they announce they have a fetish for asian women as if they are better than everyone else for it and want to be praised for it which is another weird aspect of it. Then the racial stereotypes kick in and it just is such a mess all around. I hope you stay safe in this world of ours.

      People are attracted to what they are attracted to. We can't control what we find attractive in another person. Some people are physically attracted to certain characteristics that someone of a certain ethnicity might have. The difference between men and women however is that men tend to dehumanize women they find attractive far more than vice versa, so it doesn't matter whether they have a 'fetish' or not. It just shows more when they have a racial preference.
      If a misogynist man doesn't have a race fetish, then it will be blonde women, or curvy women, or overweight women, or petite women, or women in general. The race fetish isn't the problem, it's the general dehumanization for women that is. You see lots of women with a racial preference that isn't their own who treat men like human beings and they are usually the ones who get abused if abuse happens.

    From a perspective of East Asian descent, I'm so sad that this happened to these girls specially when this guy tricked them by pretending to be helpful and kind. I've learned to spot the fetishists since I was 11 years old because foreigners, including non-East-Asian Asians, come to my country and ask stuff like "are you Korean or Japanese" because they're cherry picking 😭 since I live in a country with many types of Asians and they see Korean and Japanese to possess beauty higher than other Asians. I've seen my friends even being ignored after they reveal that they're not Korean or Japanese, but rather Chinese, Vietnamese or Filipino. Sadly, even women are guilty of fetishizing East Asians, specially if they think you're Korean. They're not aware that it's not a compliment to be objectified, even if it isn't sexual. Some guys or girls even whisper to each other when they see me in public transportation saying: "Hi Korean girl, you're so pretty. I want to come to your house." They do it loudly and they know I can hear them, which tells me that they think East Asians can't speak English. 🤦‍♀️ I've even told some people that do that that they're creeps as I get out of the train or bus and they just laugh embarrassed or feel ashamed because they didn't realize I could understand them since I'm just an object of their conversation or fetish, instead of a human. I've experienced this unwanted attention from adults since I was a child so I understand that to be safe, it's okay to be standoffish and decline stranger's kindness because it can mean life or death. I've literally had 2 different experiences in a taxi where the driver was talking to someone on the phone about assaulting me because I look Korean or Japanese and they think I don't understand the local Asian dialect. Thankfully I'm safe since I always have someone getting the taxi plate number and seeing me off before getting in a taxi and my destination is known to have high security between my pick up and drop off. I don't care if people think I'm going home too early or unfriendly if I'm not going out with strangers to a bar because my coworkers just brush off my experience saying that people are just being "friendly" 🤮

      It's nauseating how shameless and arrogant yellow fever creeps operate. I've had countless non Asian men, usually white, think they're being all cutesy with 'ni hao' or 'arigato' in the most pronounced guilo butchered pronunciation ever. It always pleases me when I respond back in fluent quick Mandarin/Japanese and they end up hanging their heads in shame, bc they can't reply to basic questions. I'm also cooly passive-aggressive and let my displeasure be known. It's not great when people entertain casual racism with laughter or 'They were just being nice, they were trying to learn!' I'm glad you take you take these precautions. I never go anywhere without my pocket safety alarm and keychain knife. My safety strategy is to evade and lose stalkers by running straight into packed crowds/busy streets. Had a few incidents while studying at art school, and managed to avoid being touched by stalkers.

There are 19 different Asian groups, and not everyone is Chinese. People need to educate themselves and realize that just bc someone looks exactly like their idea of East Asian, doesn't mean that they're a foreigner. I find it beyond annoying that these cutesy toxic men think they can do the bare minimum of knowing 3 words in another language and caricature people. At a previous retail job I was friends with several Arab people who were dark, and many Hispanic customers were absolutely incensed that they didn't speak Spanish. They called them liars and would throw actual tantrums, insisting that they knew the workers' 'actual heritage.' Nevermind that my friends were Arab with immigrant parents and raised speaking Farsi. Assumptions based on a stranger's physical appearance is colorist racism, plain and simple.

    Hey, I really like your podcast, just one thing about German prisons looking like hotels the main reason that German prisons look like hotels is to be able to rehabilitate the prisoners to educate them to make them working people of society ans lower the chances of comiting other crimes. Also, they don’t have phones in their room, rooms get searched on the regular bases including looking for phones, also not everyone is allowed to just walk out of the cell if they are hungry not everyone has access to knifes but if you behave and work in the kitchen for instance and you are a low risk prisoner u are allowed to access kitchen knives, they are counted before and after every shift. Prisoners also get therapy, normal and animal therapy. Depending on the prison and sentence. We’ve learned that people need education and stability to recover and be able to provide for a better life after imprisonment.
    Also about the death penalty we learned in the history of Germany that having that much control about life and death can lead to abuse of that control, also not everyone who is imprisoned is the one who has committed the crime even though in this case it might be clear it isn’t always. There are big differences between a geschlossener and offener vollzug meaning closed and open imprisonment. We have projects where people are in prison but its made like a group home. I’m glad we have this type of system because it can prevent a second crime not always but enough times to have proven it works. You have to earn privileges like a tv if you misbehave it gets taken away. I think we even have pet prisons but Im not sure if im mixing up documentations in my head rn the prisoners get a pet like a cat if they behave but if they screw up the cat will be taken away in which cases prisoners have shown better behavior to keep their pets

      There is literally NOTHING wrong with the way Germany deals with crime. Germany is one of the most safest crimes on Earth. The United States, despite having the largest prison population by percentage of the national population in the world, is BY FAR the most violent country in the developed world. Americans that are odd in how you deal with it and, though in terms of RETRIBUTION is understandable some revolt, in terms of RESULTS, the US is a TOTAL FAILURE and Germany a SUCCESS.
      US has 6.3 homicides per 100,000 inhabitants. Germany has 0.83 homicides per 100,00 inhabitants. One f the lowest in the world. And Germany ACTUALLY saw a DECREASE in crime rates when they SHORTENED their sentences and replace jail time for minor offenses.

    Walking your cat on a leash is normal and responsible kitty ownership in situations that it keeps kitty safe while exercising or exploring in high predator, loose dog, or high traffic areas. Many places that have leash laws require ALL types of pets to follow the laws, turtles, cats, pigs, whatever, not just doggos. It doesn't lessen this man's evil one bit. Many monsters are perfectly well behaved pet owners. Doesnt mean they arent horrific monsters with a healthy pet.

      Most of my cats are scared of outside and just roll around if I put a leash and harness on, but one of them went to pet trick training at petco and graduated. She always got mad if she wasn't taken on a walk frequently and would try to make a mad dash outside if I didn't put her harness on when she asked.

      I had a lot of cats growing up (well-cared for in an exceptionally clean house. Not animal hoarder style.) I lived in an area with a lot of strays and one of them came to my front door. Max. Some of them I found homes for and others I couldn't or had grown too attached to already. I loved all animals and still do. Some of my cats liked to be outside and others didn't. I never tried to force any of them. One of my cats just wanted to hang out in the front yard and roll in the grass. He was still on a harness and leash for safety. One really liked running with me when she was young and wasn't interested as she got older, and another wanted to watch birds and pretend-hunt (no birds were scared or harmed in the process). The rest wanted to be inside. I have seen other people with their cats who do hikes and things a dog might do. Every animal is different and has its own personality, fears, likes and dislikes. If the person is being responsible, and the animal is enjoying itself, not making them bc you want them to, then I don't see it as a red flag whatsoever. People who let their pets roam free, that's my red flag. People with dogs who are overly strict and cold to their dog in a militaristic sense, the kind where the dog gets scared around, or is tentative around, huge red flags.

    On another note, our system is one of the most punitive in the West (and in many ways the world) and has done nothing to curb crime by any analysis or metric. Germany is an extremely diverse country with class stratification, it is not as nearly diverse nor stratified as America. But its prison system is one of the many ways that reduce the violence the state does against its citizens. What this man did is irredeemable, but that does not undermine a more sensible system of capture and rehabilitation. If he cannot be rehabilitated, at least their system gives him a better chance to be understood.

    Hi!! Just dropping in to correct you that walking the cat on a leash is great actually and more owners should invest in it, especially if they live in a flat. Just make sure you have a vest that doesn't choke your cat. Cats need the stimulation and walking them allows your cat to enjoy some activities like hunting climbing and figuring out obstacles that they usually don't get to experience if they live indoors
