TV From Last Night

I sat last night and watched my regional public TV channel (HR).  They ran a news documentary piece entitled: The Girl and the Refugee (produced in the last couple of months by SWR).

They went and laid out the entire story of the Kandel murder episode (27 December 2017) with the German teenage girl dead (17 years old) and the culprit.....a Afghan teenage boy (16 years old).  His age is disputed, and he might be older.

It is probably one of the better news pieces done because they go and tell a story that covers not just this murder, but the politics behind everything....the efforts in Darmstadt to counter violence....and how behavior has to be changed (on the part of the young incoming male immigrants). 

In the midst of the video (about 45 minutes long), you get the hint from one individual that parents are now trying to discourage their teenage daughters from any traveling into Darmstadt....suggesting it is too dangerous now for teen girls.

If you click on the link I put up, you can watch the piece (in German).  It was good journalism and lays out the problems within the German immigration situation.
