18 month suspended sentence for torturing your wife to death *Trigger warning: some graphic details* (Titled edited by MNHQ)

I honestly think about this poor woman every day...

Bless her heart.

I’m a bit confused. The forensic report doesn’t seem to know what item was actually used which suggests he had both withheld that information and gotten rid of the item itself before the police got involved. That’s not at all suspicious.

The whole thing just beggars belief.

A light suspended sentence for manslaughter because she allegedly consented. But what does anyone think is going to happen if you push a barbed hook into someone’s colon? It is 100% obvious that horrific damage will result. He chose to do that knowing that catastrophic damage would result. It wasn’t an accident, he did it deliberately.

Honestly , I always argue against revenge and violent retribution but I hope someone puts a barbed hook up his arse. And that of the judge.

Yes, it’s a woman hating, not seeing them as people but as objects to do as you please with/to thing.

I wonder were there any assets involved that would automatically go to a husband rather than a partner.

Yes it's a sadistic murder thing.

I understand that people do weird shit in sex, but can someone tell me why you'd insert a barbed hook into someone's body, knowing it would rip and tear them to pieces, is this a thing?

Hello - I am so sickened by this. I think Germany has even bigger problems than the UK with ludicrously light sentencing for "negligent" "accidental" deaths of women and girls.

I'm so enraged i think I'm going to pull together a We Can't Consent To This for Germany - if any of you are there, would you mind searching your local news website for sexspielen and the like, and let me know if you find any of these cases?

Thank you

Yes the “enjoyed” astounded me too. How could she have written that word in that context?

I know, GirlDownUnder , that struck me. ‘Enjoyed’ ? Who says? How can she , as a reporter, say?

So.
Insert a barbed hook into a ‘consenting ‘ (sic) person’s body and surprise surprise they die: they consented so suspended sentence.

Assist a terminally ill person begging for a humane death in self euthanasia : you will go to prison.

I'm gob smacked that the reporter, Kathryn Quinn, wrote these two sentences together!

Ralph Jankus, 52, and his wife Christel, 49, enjoyed a mammoth two-day sex session just days after their wedding.

The victim suffered severe internal injuries after a sharp object was allegedly inserted into her.

I see no reason why there could not be strict liability here. It's not the norm to die whilst having sex. I appreciate that occasionally a person could have a heart attack or a stroke during sex but that's quite different.

But setting that aside, why not have strict liability death occurring during any sexual activity involving the penetration of a person by anything other than their partner's body, or the application of any gag or restraint, is culpable homicide /manslaughter (depending on the jurisdiction)

That men can argue "consent" in court is the biggest trick the patriarchy ever played on women. The magic word "consent" is a get out of jail free card for men. We're expected to believe that women freely consent to this stuff, without some level of coercion? Just no.

If he'd held down a stranger and done it, he'd probably still argue she consented, and some would probably believe him. Nothing surprises me nowadays.

Men's war on women.

There are many casualties and victims.

Horrific reminds me of the Natalie Connolly case here.

It doesn’t mention a toxicology report in the article but i’ll Be really surprised if she wasn’t unconscious or very close to it as a result of drink or drugs when this part of the assault happened.

Christel must have had some sort of barbed hook inserted into her and when it was removed it perforated her bowel.

Honestly, I don't know how anyone can consent to having a barbed hooked object inserted in their rectum. Is thing a thing? It's so, so dangerous. I mean, I know there's some pretty extreme BDSM going on out there - but what is unsurprising is that it is nearly always the woman who suffers death from BDSM, "rough sex" or "sex game gone wrong".

How so we know that these reams of women who have suffered fates like this poor woman, haven't been coerced into this? They are dead. How can we trust the man's word - the word of the man who did this to her, and killed her, that she "consented" ?? Of course he's going to say that. "Consent" - for me - is not a valid defence. At some point people have to ask -Is it reasonable behaviour for this man to have done this to this woman? My answer would be no.

And without wanting to derail this thread, my German tax return has me listed as the first recipient and my husband second.

I do wonder sometimes what judges do in their spare time.

Alessandra fyi I am British.

Of course not class 4 if my husband is currently not working.... the information is correct, from an online company (SteuerGo) and from the Lohnsteuerhilfeverein. I have to say it is very annoying when somebody comes online to explain my life to me, and I have to believe you are German, as Germans seem particularly fond of telling people they are wrong without having any knowledge of the details.
