Overview
- Hanna Lakomy says that after a 2015 Leipzig concert, Wecker put his hand on her thigh in a backstage setting and invited her to his hotel room.
- She describes herself as having been an adult and says she felt "amused-disgusted," adding that members of Wecker’s entourage reacted angrily when she objected.
- Her Facebook post was published by multiple outlets on November 24, and BILD reported no response yet from Wecker’s office to its request for comment.
- Wecker, 78, recently conveyed through his lawyer "deepest regret" over a past relationship that began when the woman was 16 after meeting him at 15, which he recalls as consensual.
- The lawyer attributes Wecker’s past behavior in part to heavy alcohol use, notes several years of sobriety, and says he believes no criminal offenses were committed, as public debate over power dynamics continues.
