Sadist convinced woman to let herself be hanged

A man was sentenced to seven years in prison by the federal court in Karlsruhe, because he had persuaded a woman with suicidal tendencies to let him hang him.

The man dreamed of bringing someone to death and had previously chosen a woman from Leipzig. Through an online platform for people with a tendency to suicide, he had come into contact with his intended victim.

After his arrest the police found in the man's car include buoys and cables.
