Ex-boyfriend as victim
Attempted murder: court dismisses complaint
A woman from Salzburg (60) was sentenced to 15 years in prison for attempted murder. She appealed against the sentence - but in vain. The Supreme Court dismissed the appeal. Now it is only a question of the amount of the sentence.
The "Krone" reported on the case: After an argument over four cats she had given away, an alcoholic woman from Salzburg drove to her ex-boyfriend's house in Salzburg on June 13, 2023, went into the garden of the house there and stabbed the man with a knife. At the trial in Salzburg Provincial Court in mid-December, she explained "I just wanted to talk to him."
The eight jurors unanimously found attempted murder and found the defendant not legally guilty: 15 years in prison. However, she lodged an appeal for annulment and an appeal against this. The argument was that she was not sane due to her alcohol level of 2.7 per mille, coupled with pills.
The Supreme Court referred to the clear expert opinions on sanity and dismissed the appeal. Now the Linz Higher Regional Court only has to decide on the level of the sentence.
