The Stuttgart prosecutor checks whether people who have recorded and uploaded videos have made themselves punishable. According to a speaker, this is about the "violation of the very personal life by taking pictures". The State Criminal Police Office of Baden-Württemberg also pointed out in a tweet that the "production and distribution of media showing cruel or inhumane acts of violence against people" are prohibited.
"I find that almost tasteless when people do something like this," said the state chairman of the police union, Hans -Jürgen Kirstein, to the filming and its distribution and referred to the victims. The act itself reflects an overall social problem: many conflicts would no longer be verbal but rather violent. "That's possible at all levels," he said.
