Raser tötet Radfahrer und entgeht Verhandlung

2020 wurde Bernd Wissmann von einem Raser getötet. Fast vier Jahre und vier geplatzte Gerichtstermine später wurde der Täter zu einer Bewährungsstrafe verurteilt - aber nicht bei einer Gerichtsverhandlung, sondern mit einem schriftlichen Strafbefehl.

RIP, Steve Albini. He did an "Invisible Jukebox" for The Wire in 1994, and they've made it publicly available as a memorial:

A seven-year-old girl.

Born in Belgium to parents who left an Iraq riven by internecine strife ignited by US/UK's illegal invasion in 2003.

Grew up in Sweden.

Forced by threat of her family's deportation first to Finland, and then France.

Died, asphyxiated under a crush of "illegal immigrants," on a human-trafficker's rubber death-trap crossing the English Channel as her family sought refuge in the Untied Kingdom.
