Edith Brötzner and Florian Machl were present in the courtroom and participated in the entire hearing. They encountered many anomalies that are handled completely differently in other processes. The trial gave the impression of a rehearsed drama, while many essential details remained untested or undisputed. Florian Machl reports on all the findings in particular detail in this video article.
Report and analysis by Florian Machel
The trial was not about guilt or innocence but about the level of punishment. In the end it was as light as possible. Despite possessing 76,000 child porn files, many of which he himself edited and commented on, Teichtmeister never spent a day in jail. In this exclusive video Florian Machl explains why this is strange and what the features were in this process. You will find details that the mainstream is once again silent about.
The accused confessed during the proceedings. But obviously he wasn’t like that from the first minute. Things worsened because his long-term partner felt threatened by him. She called the police and informed the authorities about “strange pictures on the phone” of the accused. A house was searched and dozens of data storage devices were seized. There were 76,000 files on it.
These issues appeared strange in testing:
It is undisputed that Techtmeister has committed increasingly criminal acts over the years. Although initially he collected only photographs, the people depicted in them became increasingly young over the years. They began commenting on them, writing text, and editing images with image editing programs. Eventually the activities escalated to the point of reality. He exchanged sadistic fantasies with a young man over the age of 18 (which is not a criminal offence, but relevant in context). He took photographs of a 10-year-old fellow actress and commented on them in a pedosexual and sadistic manner.
However, no witnesses were heard during the trial. Not that old friend who is said to have fled abroad, not that 10-year-old child (not even safely away from the hustle and bustle), not the chat partner or other people. No one wanted to know anything about the surroundings of the accused.
The meaning of the secret temple which he built on the family estate and whose symbolism and inscriptions were reminiscent of both Freemasonry and its functions was also not questioned. There was no discussion about the building.
The forensic expert said that perhaps not all the files had been secured. Since there were 76,000 easily visible files, no one would have searched further. Not for deleted files, not for hidden files. Evidence of at least four other data carriers emerged, but these were not seized or searched.
Techtmeister emphasized that his limitation would be not to collect or possess any images depicting violence in line with his imagination. These fantasies were brutal and ranged from rape and torture of minors to practices that resulted in death, such as oral rape, in which the minor victim would suffocate in her own vomit. The fantasies also included beatings and whippings to “destroy” the victims’ bodies.
The extent to which he actually lived out such fantasies, told them to others or wanted to do so in the future was not questioned. This is also very strange. There was a consistent lack of interest in explanation on the part of both the government lawyer and the judge.
Reading the hateful texts, on the other hand, felt almost like an audio book. While it felt almost nauseous to sympathetic listeners, the tone almost seemed as if it was intended to create a certain sexual tension. The intention may be to charge the defendant with what he has actually done – whether that was achieved is another matter.
What proved particularly helpful was what forensic psychologist expert Prof. Hoffmann, who pointed out that Teichtmeister was neither curable nor harmless, on the contrary, a recurrence or even an increase in severity of the crimes could be imagined – but on the basis of the previous two years of treatment In, one can be assured of avoiding entry and they can be suspended to some extent. He proposed the terms specifically and in detail.
Ultimately the decision was as generous as possible. A conditional or suspended prison sentence of two years and admission to an institution was also conditionally suspended. The defendant must comply with certain court conditions such as regular drug and alcohol testing, regular psychiatric treatment, and probation services.
