Minister Fernis breaks down on the number of successful legal verdicts - Justice Minister Fernis discloses details about recent criminal convictions
In a press conference held in Mainz on Monday, Justice Minister Philipp Fernis (FDP) presented the criminal prosecution statistics for the year 2024 in Rhineland-Palatinate. This was the minister's first press conference since taking office in April, following the late Herbert Mertin's tenure.
Minister Fernis reported that convictions for violent crimes remained at a similar level as the previous year, while convictions for offenses against sexual self-determination increased slightly compared to 2023. Notably, overall total convictions decreased by about 3.5%, with fewer juvenile convictions and a significant rise in convictions for sexual offenses and hate crimes like Volksverhetzung (incitement to hatred).
The report focuses on convictions, not the process of convicting someone. It does not provide any analysis or interpretation of the convictions, nor does it mention the number of convictions or the individuals involved. The report also does not specify the location or the context of the convictions, nor does it mention any legal proceedings or court cases.
Moreover, the report does not provide any specific details about the convictions, nor does it mention the impact or implications of the convictions. It is also not clear what kind of convictions are being referred to (criminal, civil, etc.).
In 2023, there was an increase of seven percent in the number of people convicted for violent offenses and crimes against sexual self-determination in Rhineland-Palatinate compared to the previous year. Minister Fernis will report on whether these trends continued in the past year (2024) during the press conference.
