What a sad, strange case.![]()
Toter Fabian (8) aus Güstrow: Warum kümmert sich sein Vater um die Pferde von Gina H.?
Gina H. sitzt als Hauptverdächtige im Mordfall Fabian in Untersuchungshaft. Nachbarn machen an ihrem Haus seltsame Beobachtungen.www.berliner-kurier.de
Even two weeks after Gina H.'s arrest, peace has barely returned to her hometown. Several residents have noticed something striking: since Gina H.'s detention, it is Fabian's father who has been caring for her horses. Among them is her mare Cleo, with whom Gina H. competed in show jumping tournaments. The horses are kept in a pasture near her house. Fabian's father is there several times a day, tending to the animals, reports the Nordkurier newspaper. But why is he doing this when Gina H. is under strong suspicion of having killed his son?
Google translation (if you can see the article in English?)
In answer to the article's question, I wonder if the father simply feels compassion for the animals that he'd likely gotten to be close to while dating his ex. It would be heartbreaking, but I could imagine someone who had bonded with a partner's pets (ok, horses are a slightly different level) over 4 years wanting to care for those additional "victims" if no one else were available to do it, and if it kept them out of a shelter or worse.
I've also been wondering about the ex-gf's motives: either (1) to take revenge on Fabian's father for their break-up or even something else, or (2) could she perhaps blame Fabian for the break-up, either directly or for being a higher priority to his father than she was?
BTW, FromGermany1, thank you for sharing all these links and translations for us!
(Edited to add: My German's weak, but it looks like the article says that the suspect's own son is in the care of the German version of CPS: "Der Sohn von Gina H. ist in der Obhut des Jugendamtes." That seems like the child's father and any family of either Gina H or her child's father are not available. I wonder then, if a possible lack of other close personal relationships caused her to take the break-up with Fabian's father especially badly.)
