Quedlinburg child sex abuse ring
The Quedlinburg child sex abuse ring was a group of two men and one woman who were accused of sexual offences against two female children in the German city of Quedlinburg.[1]
Sometime in late April or early May 2011, the woman and the two men from Quedlinburg met at the edge of a forest in the Harz Mountains.[1] The woman from Quedlinburg handed over her then-10-year-old daughter and her 15-year-old sister to the two men. They drove on to Wernigerode, to the "Burgbreite" prefabricated housing estate. This estate was let them by a third man, who was waiting for them in one of the concrete blocks on the main street. The perpetrators made full confessions before the Leipzig Regional Court.[2]
The woman was 35 years old and the men were 38 and 66 years old.[3] The 66-year-old man had been imprisoned for sexually abusing a child between 2004 and 2010. The woman received 800 euros in cash from the younger man. The victims also received some money and cigarettes.[4] Both clients stated that they had not threatened the girls.[4]
The woman was sentenced to four years and nine months in prison.[4]
