Bloodthirsty incident in Krailling: woman dead, husband arrested!
In the tranquil community of Krailling, in the Starnberg district, a shocking violent crime caused horror on Saturday. The police found a 29-year-old woman lifeless in her apartment and are assuming a homicide. As Radio Oberland reports, the woman's 36-year-old husband was arrested as a suspect after residents called the police because they had seen a bleeding man on Gautinger Strasse. While checking the apartment, investigators found the dead woman who apparently died violently.
The tragedy is compounded by the fact that the six children of those killed, aged between 4 and 10, are now in the care of the Starnberg Youth Welfare Office. As the local police department emphasizes, the Fürstenfeldbruck criminal investigation department has taken over the investigation. Comprehensive forensic investigations and an autopsy of the body were ordered by the Munich II public prosecutor's office. The suspect is to be brought before a magistrate the following day, as the police authority stated in a press release (Polizei Bayern).
Background to violent crime in Germany
Violent crimes make up less than 4% of all crimes recorded by the police in Germany, but they have a strong influence on people's sense of security. In fact, around 217,000 violent crimes were registered in 2024, the highest number since 2007. The categories of these crimes include murder, serious bodily harm and robbery, as can be derived from the data from [Statista](https://de.statista.com/themen/11062/ criminalitaet-in-deutschland-violentcrime/). What is particularly alarming is the fact that the number of violent crimes has been increasing again since 2021, after reaching a low during the corona pandemic.
The reasons for this increase are complex. Economic uncertainties and social pressures play a crucial role. There is also an increase in the number of suspects, especially among young people. The proportion of young violent criminals is increasing, which is causing concern among many citizens. A survey in May 2024 showed that 94% of Germans see violence and aggression against people from politics, the police and the rescue service as a major problem.
Against this background, the current case in Krailling is not only a tragic individual fate, but also a reflection of developments in society. The investigation situation described gives us hope that the perpetrators can be held accountable and the background to this violence can be better understood.
