The or day on radio, it happened again. In a talk broadcast by Bayern 2 on subject MeToo, it was a question of why so few women show sexual abuse. A caller was switched on, apparently a former judge. "It is leadership of criminal trials in Germany," said man, best example is Fall tile man. "Mr. Tile man, like any offender, was able to sit back in a pleasurable process, protected by his lawyers." The alleged victim, on or hand, was exposed to "most impossible questions of court".
The moderator did not disagree with him. He did not say that case tile man is not suitable for this comparison, that Jörg Tile man is not a criminal offender. That he was acquitted in May 2011 by a district court. That a civil process was very clear last autumn: Claudia D. Had inflicted himself injuries and slandered tile man with criminal energy.
On demand, moderator regrets that he did not immediately point out acquittal, which of course was known to him. And so radio conversation is anor example of how hard path is, tile man is just going. The path that has only one goal: to restore its reputation.
Webcam videos instead of daily mesWhen you visit 59-year-old at home in Switzerland, it may be that he jumps in middle of conversation: "must make a video!" He n puts a webcam in garden, builds up in high-rolled shirt before and tells a quarter of an hour about wear. He sends clip to Hamburg in newsroom of digital Daily Spiegel daily. He does not receive money according to his own information, but at least hope of attention and a better image.
Becky Freelance author and filmmaker on authors pageThe former ARD wear presenter was formerly a real favourite of Germans, a funny, carefree type. But n he was arrested 2010, his ex-lover had shown him for rape and he stayed in custody for more than four months. Even before beginning of process, proceedings were sent to press, and for months, journalists speculated on a supposed "Tatmesser", a "crime scene", DNA traces. Tile man's private life became a public good, for example, that he should have had many mistresses – all under pretext of "Tataufklärung".
In process, Claudia D. Was implicated in contradictions, no legal medical advice confirmed a rape. However, for Mannheim state prosecutor's office, tile man's debt was fixed in spite of thin evidence to end. In May 2011, District Court of Mannheim announced its acquittal. However, in case of judgment, judges resigned: "Today's acquittal is not based on fact that Chamber of innocence of Mr. Tile Man (...) is convinced. " The medial effect did not survive: Bild titled following day: "Acquittal, but."
"No member of judiciary likes to correct himself"Over and over again, judiciary and media subsequently ensured that doubts about tiled man's innocence were kept alive. For example, spokesman for Mannheim Public Prosecutor's office said after acquittal in a television camera: "The court has clearly pointed out: sis of defence that subsidiary applicant has invented everything to finish Mr. Tile man has not . " This assertion was wrong. That is exactly what this sis would have been, if court had wanted it to be.
"No member of judiciary likes to admit that it has made mistakes," says former judge Heinrich Gehrke. "Neir a prosecutor nor a judge likes to correct mselves." For years criminal was involved in District Court of Frankfurt with processes that were particularly observant to public. It still stirs today on failure of judiciary in case of tile man. "Against such a poisoned acquittal, one cannot do anything as an afflicted man," he says. "You can appeal against a conviction – but against a acquittal?"
Tile man remained so only possibility to create lie himself from world. "All have advised me: Now you must give peace, be happy," he says. "That wasn't a viable way for me, I wanted to fight." He sued numerous media who reported falsely or injured his privacy; Also resisted private individuals who offended him in social media as "rapists" or "women haters". A court finally spoke to him of record compensation sum of 395,000 euros, because articles in picture, Bild on Sunday and on Bild.de had violated his personal rights. The verdict is still not valid, Springer Verlag has filed a complaint with Federal Court of Justice.
