- The ARD series on Jérôme Boateng is condemned for lacking the victim's viewpoint and downplaying his assault conviction.
- Kasia Lenhardt's family and lawyer denounce the exploitation of her suicide as a central emotional element in the film.
- The family's interview contributions were not transparently presented, with critical comments about Boateng omitted.
- ARD is urged to withdraw the documentary for trivializing violence against women and complicating public discourse.
The family has followed the advice from the beginning not to become part of the reporting themselves. What would that benefit them? It does not bring their daughter back.— Media lawyer Markus Hennig comments on the documentary about Jérôme Boateng in the Tagesspiegel.
