    This is how criminals should be handled, they should be trialed and sentencend, not deported which helps no one.

      If the criminal’s home country enforce the sentence, then why not?

        Me calling my Middle eastern friends to murder my enemies here in Germany and all they get is a flight home.

        Genius.

            You mean Russians coming here to murder Germans, or people can go to Russia and mixer people there?

              If Russia doesn’t like that someone gets arrested abroad, they just take hostages and demand a prisoner exchange. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zelimkhan_Khangoshvili#Assassination

        Foreign criminals don’t just get deported. They receive a sentence, such as jail time and then deported after, if sentenced as such.

    Her former husband had declined to speak in court.

    … and hid behind a piece of paper. At least face the music, coward. Not so mighty and powerful now, are we?

      That is completely normal. Criminal courts are usually public, fotos however are only allowed right at the beginning. The defendent has the right, and most use thst right, to not be seen in pictures as ti make resocialisation possible.

        I am aware of all that. Still, this gesture is fraught with bitter irony when coming from people who did unspeakable things in the name of some political or religious ideology. Yesterday, they stood proud, doing what they did out in the open, claiming their ideology gave them the right to do it. Today, they cower and hide, not wanting to be connected with their deeds. If a human court of law and a bit of social stigma is all it takes to make your beliefs crumble, maybe your beliefs were shit to begin with, and you could have had this realisation at a fraction of the cost in human suffering. But alas…

    Privacy is important, but there is a reasonable point at which the identity of a convicted criminal becomes a matter of public interest.

      I mean… he is sentenced for life. What does it help anyone to know what they look like?

        He’ll most likely not spend his whole life in prison, but rather on average about 20 years.

News and information from Europe 🇪🇺

(Current banner: La Mancha, Spain. Feel free to post submissions for banner images.)

Rules

  1. This is an English-language community. Comments should be in English. Posts can link to non-English news sources when providing a full-text translation in the post description. Automated translations are fine, as long as they don’t overly distort the content.
  2. No links to misinformation or commercial advertising. When you post outdated/historic articles, add the year of publication to the post title. Infographics must include a source and a year of creation; if possible, also provide a link to the source.
  3. Be kind to each other, and argue in good faith. Don’t post direct insults nor disrespectful and condescending comments. Don’t troll nor incite hatred. Don’t look for novel argumentation strategies at Wikipedia’s List of fallacies.
  4. No bigotry, sexism, racism, antisemitism, islamophobia, dehumanization of minorities, or glorification of National Socialism. We follow German law; don’t question the statehood of Israel.
  5. Be the signal, not the noise: Strive to post insightful comments. Add “/s” when you’re being sarcastic (and don’t use it to break rule no. 3).
  6. If you link to paywalled information, please provide also a link to a freely available archived version. Alternatively, try to find a different source.
  7. Light-hearted content, memes, and posts about your European everyday belong in other communities.
  8. Don’t evade bans. If we notice ban evasion, that will result in a permanent ban for all the accounts we can associate with you.
  9. No posts linking to speculative reporting about ongoing events with unclear backgrounds. Please wait at least 12 hours. (E.g., do not post breathless reporting on an ongoing terror attack.)
  10. Always provide context with posts: Don’t post uncontextualized images or videos, and don’t start discussions without giving some context first.

(This list may get expanded as necessary.)

Posts that link to the following sources will be removed

  • on any topic: Al Mayadeen, brusselssignal:eu, citjourno:com, europesays:com, Breitbart, Daily Caller, Fox, GB News, geo-trends:eu, news-pravda:com, OAN, RT, sociable:co, any AI slop sites (when in doubt please look for a credible imprint/about page), change:org (for privacy reasons), archive:is,ph,today (their JS DDoS websites)
  • on Middle-East topics: Al Jazeera
  • on Hungary: Euronews

Unless they’re the only sources, please also avoid The Sun, Daily Mail, any “thinktank” type organization, and non-Lemmy social media (incl. Substack). Don’t link to Twitter directly, instead use xcancel.com. For Reddit, use old:reddit:com

(Lists may get expanded as necessary.)

Ban lengths, etc.

We will use some leeway to decide whether to remove a comment.

If need be, there are also bans: 3 days for lighter offenses, 7 or 14 days for bigger offenses, and permanent bans for people who don’t show any willingness to participate productively. If we think the ban reason is obvious, we may not specifically write to you.

If you want to protest a removal or ban, feel free to write privately to the admin that applied the rule (check modlog first to find who was it.)
