A judge sentenced the 54-year-old on Thursday to four months’ suspended imprisonment and an 800-euro fine ($886.75) for grossly negligent homicide.
Imagine going to court for 3 years trying to get your loved ones murderer to face consequences, you win, and they get off with a 800 dollar fine.
You know, I was here thinking it may have been something that the headline missed as to why she got off lightly to understand her position.
But the woman’s doctor told police that the defendant had tested positive with a rapid test and told him that she “certainly won’t let herself be locked up" after the result
Nope, she’s just a cunt.
Agreed. The headline made it sound like the deceased person was injected or something.
She also has a prior conviction for intentionally spreading COVID.
Come on, it’s not like she murdered someone rich.
Best I can do is $3.50

The other had cancer.
Did this woman do it on purpose? The judge seems to be pretty sorry.
People in 2021 had to go and do stuff, infected or not. That makes me scared that some day I might get charged for murder by pure chance that my neighbor got infected while I was buying my covid test.
Yes. The story here is straight from Associated Press, but I looked around and found a few more details in a Telegraph article:
But he woman’s doctor told police that the defendant had tested positive with a rapid test before telling him that she “certainly won’t let herself be locked up” after the result.
Instead she left her apartment and talked to people without a mask, ignoring her mandatory quarantine and positive test.
Note they say MANDATORY quarantine. At the end of the article they explain that Austria’s far right party, Freedom Party, is hyper-anti-vax, expected to win upcoming elections:
Its manifesto has promised a pardon for anyone convicted of breaching coronavirus rules and to repay any fines imposed during the pandemic.
The manifesto says coronavirus regulations were encroachments on fundamental rights “accompanied by unprecedented indoctrination and brainwashing.”
Don’t have an English source on hand but she new she had COVID, broke quarantine and didn’t wear protection around others.
So unless you are ignoring basic human decency you are going to be fine.
