Overview

• The investigation into Jérôme Boateng, involving allegations of bodily harm, coercion, and defamation against his late ex-girlfriend Kasia Lenhardt, has been officially closed as of March 26, 2025.
• Prosecutors cited insufficient evidence, including inconclusive injury documentation and the unavailability of Lenhardt as a witness, as reasons for the case's closure.
• A potential witness who came forward in early 2025 failed to appear for questioning and is now unreachable, further hindering the investigation.
• The legal principle 'in dubio pro reo' (in doubt for the accused) was applied, as the evidence did not meet the threshold for prosecution.
• Boateng, who has faced prior legal issues including a conviction for bodily harm in a separate case, expressed relief at the decision, stating it confirmed his innocence.
