Hamburg Court Suspends Sentences for Mother and Daughter in 2018 Hells Angels Plot

A lack of evidence over a key telephone conversation prompted an acquittal; the other two relatives received probation, each required to cover at least €250,000 in damages

Overview

  • The 36-year-old sister was acquitted after judges concluded they could not establish the content of a pivotal phone call
  • The convicted relatives must pay at least €250,000 to the Hells Angels leader, who was left quadriplegic by shots fired at a St. Pauli intersection in August 2018
  • The trial, which began in April 2024 with prosecutors seeking significantly longer terms, ended with suspended sentences for the family members
