Wetzlar – Perhaps it was Sophie S. She is very lucky to have escaped the alleged killer of Eileen (14 years old) from Gothenheim (Baden-Württemberg).

From the beginning of April to the end of May 2022, Jan-Heiko P. repeatedly sought to contact the 17-year-old via Snapchat. The 29-year-old is no longer under management supervision.

High School Graduate: “He talked to me at the time because my AirPods fell to the floor. He picked them up and said it had happened to him before.”

A conversation developed from the incident: “He told me he lives in Waldsolms and helps with exhibitions. He was very proud of that. Eventually he wanted my cell phone number and kept asking,” Sophie says.

The student did not want to give her number, and P. remained stubborn and impulsive: “He didn’t understand why I didn’t give my number to complete strangers. I ended up giving it to my Snapchat contact, I don’t want to be rude.”

The woman from Witsla recalls: “He would write to me every day: how to do, what to do, whether we wanted to meet, whether to take me in the car.”

“He was friendly, so I answered him kindly. I was sorry. He seemed to have no friends. I thought he was having a midlife crisis, but not because he was a rapist,” Sophie says. Eye-catching to Sophie: “He spoke very slowly and looked as if he was looking into your soul, a kind of psychological look.”

P. may seem “strange” to her and her friends: “We saw him in real life quite often, then pushed an almost empty shopping cart in front of him. Sometimes he would sit on a bench and eat ice cream for hours. We tried to avoid him, but we still bumped into him from time to time” .

At the end of May, Sophie received a strange voice message from P: “He should delete me from Snapchat because I’m such a nice person, and I’d better delete me now. Looking back, I interpret this to mean that he might have been looking for victims in the beginning. Maybe. He finally found me kind and felt sorry for me. Perhaps he realized that I was respecting him as a person and saw me as his companion.”

Sophie went to the police with her mother to pass on the information: “Even if Jan didn’t do anything to me, it would be appropriate to know how many girls he approached or dragged away in this way. But I don’t think the officials were really interested. They didn’t even want to see the screenshots ” .
