Murder trial Bruggerberg: Cave murder perpetrators sentenced to 19 years and two months

When asked about the specific case, the accused said: “It’s too complicated for me, I don’t know what to say.” You would have done “challenges” again and again, a kind of dare. He also did this with old schoolmates, not just with the later victim.

On this last day, the victim sent him WhatsApp messages with the following content: “It’s been a good time, but it’s sad that we won’t see each other again. It’s a shame, but we still have to enjoy it today.” They would then have done one last “challenge”. The judge wants to know what the test of courage consisted of. “Being in the cave for ten minutes,” says the perpetrator.

The negative impetus for the crime began when the victim refused to go into the cave, the judge quotes the investigation files: “Now is the time. I thought to myself that I had to take revenge.” At today’s trial, the accused no longer wants to know anything about all the statements and pretends to be clueless. “I don’t remember what happened that evening.”
