Mosbach Court Hands Suspended Sentences to Reichsbürger Family

The court handed down probation terms between six months and one year to four relatives convicted over a weapons and cannabis case from a 2022 police operation.

Overview

  • The father received a one-year suspended sentence for possessing a semi-automatic handgun and a strangulation weapon (Würgerholz).
  • His elder son was handed nine months’ probation for owning another semi-automatic firearm.
  • The younger son and daughter-in-law each drew six months’ probation after cultivating 38 cannabis plants at the family estate.
  • The mother was fully acquitted, making her the only defendant to avoid a conviction.
  • The trial at Landgericht Mosbach followed the family’s failure to appear at a May 2023 hearing and stems from an escalated April 2022 police raid on their Reichsbürger-affiliated Boxberg property.
