—
He was also responsible for a fatal stabbing in Delft in 2012. The then 17-year-old Sherwin W. stabbed a 22-year-old man to death at a birthday party. Because he was a minor, Sherwin received 1.5 years in juvenile detention and youth detention. At the time, he was considered to be incompetent.

13:15 – No punishment for dead in Rotterdam-Kralingen drug lab
The judge has convicted a 57-year-old man in the case of the dead man in a drug lab in Rotterdam-Kralingen. The suspect did not seek medical attention as the victim was in critical condition.
—
The 31-year-old victim died in August 2019 from an amphetamine overdose. He assisted the suspect in making the drugs. The man kicked his legs, rolled his eyes, spat black bile and blood and eventually suffocated.
—
According to the judge, there is no direct fault of the suspect in the death of the victim. However, he failed to call 911. In retrospect, it is impossible to determine whether this could have been life-saving.
—
The Rotterdam suspect was previously jailed for 42 months for drug trafficking. The judge says that if this case, about seeking medical attention, had been dealt with at the same time as the drug case, the total sentence would also have been 42 months. Therefore, no separate penalty is now added. Justice had requested a month in prison.
—
The victim’s family regrets that no additional punishment has been imposed, says his sister Shanice. “But that he has been convicted for it is a bit of satisfaction. In any case, it is written on his criminal record that he did not offer any help. We see it as a symbolic punishment.”
—
Shanice is puzzled by the reported cause of death, ‘overdose’. “That gives the impression that my brother was a drug addict, but he was not. He was not taking paracetamol yet. I am convinced that he was given those drugs.”
—
The suspect was not present at the trial, he is staying in Cape Verde. He previously stated that he himself was under the influence of amphetamine fumes and that he tried to resuscitate the victim.
