Overview
- The Berlin public prosecutor filed an indictment that brings the 38-year-old to trial on a charge of bodily harm resulting in death.
- Investigators allege she ignored alerts from her seven-year-old’s insulin pump over several days in July 2023 in the Tempelhof district.
- The probe cites 103 pump alarms in that span, with nearly half allegedly not addressed, and notes such alerts can flag a blocked line or a low battery.
- Prosecutors say the lack of insulin caused a metabolic collapse and brain oxygen deprivation that led to hospitalization and, weeks later, death.
- Reporting cites the prosecutor’s office and dpa, and the allegations remain unproven until tested in court.
