Criminal forcefully breaks into a store in Wiesbaden and assaults health care providers
In Wiesbaden, Westhessen, a 43-year-old woman was apprehended for shoplifting on Monday evening. The incident occurred around 7 p.m. at a clothing store. However, the woman's behaviour did not end with the shoplifting.
Upon being asked for personal details, she assaulted the store employees. The situation escalated further, with the woman using racial slurs during the assault. The woman remained aggressive throughout and was taken to a hospital.
At the hospital, her behaviour continued to be disruptive, resulting in further assault and insult of a healthcare worker. The worker had to be restrained.
The woman's actions did not stop there. While at the 1st police station, she urinated in her cell. Due to her behaviour, officers decided to commit her to a specialized clinic.
It is also worth noting that the woman is a repeat offender. She had previously been involved in a shoplifting incident at another location. The police were occupied with this case for nearly six hours.
When police found her at the Platz der Deutschen Einheit, she was shouting and claiming to have been beaten by the officers. However, the police have initiated multiple criminal proceedings against the woman.
Under German law, repeat shoplifting can lead to harsher sentences. Assault is punishable by up to several years of imprisonment, with aggravated assault attracting even longer terms. If the individual threatens self-harm, authorities may also intervene under the mental health framework to prevent harm, potentially leading to compulsory psychiatric care.
Offences inside police custody, like urinating in a cell, may be considered disrespect toward law enforcement and disrupt public order. The cumulative nature and severity of these offenses, especially assaulting multiple victims including state agents (police, healthcare workers) and committing offences while in custody, would likely lead to significant criminal penalties such as imprisonment.
The court would consider the repeat nature of shoplifting and violent behaviour as aggravating factors increasing sentence severity. Unfortunately, none of the provided search results directly address German law on this exact scenario, so this explanation is based on general knowledge of German criminal and public order law rather than specific citations from search results. For details on German statutes or case law, consulting a legal expert or official legal sources in Germany is recommended.
