Stuttgart Pay no attention for a moment – and another person is dead. For a lawyer, this nightmare becomes reality. The 29th case of the Stuttgart “crime scene” “The murderer in me” poses painful questions to the public.
It’s raining heavily, the colleague on the phone pushes and pushes because the Italians are waiting for contracts. Attorney Ben Dellien (Nicholas Reinke) drives through a wall of water on a dark country road, is distracted by stress at the office, and then picks up his cell phone. He makes a bad decision, gets distracted for a second and his life falls apart because someone else is losing their life. His car collides with a man pushing a bicycle down the street. Delien approaches and exits, but looks no further and returns home. And that makes him a killer.

At least that’s how the coroner saw it, who was one of the first to arrive with his racing bike at the point where the body of the accident victim was found. The homeless man survived for several hours after breaking his bones several times and was unable to move into the ditch. Then he died of internal bleeding. He could have been saved if only Attorney Delien had taken a closer look.

The Stuttgart crime scene is about this drama. In “The Murderer in Me” the audience is shown in many ways how a second of carelessness, a moment of recklessness or recklessness can burden a person with a lot of guilt. Dellien wants to face this guilt. He has already dialed 110, has already opened his mouth to reveal himself. He suffers like a dog, he is plagued by panic attacks and nightmares. Commissioners Thorsten Lannert (Richy Müller) and Sebastian Bootz (Felix Klare) are also quickly in front of his door because he had previously been hit by a speed camera. However, he is not inclined to admit his guilt and report to the police.

The fact that he doesn’t do this is also due to his wife Johanna and her perfect life. He is about to become a partner in a law firm and his sons Franz and Fritzi bring good grades home to their modern home. His wife is expecting their next child soon – this too will be given a name with the F, or Ferdinand. Everything in his life is in the right place, he is a valuable member of society. Should a moment of inattention, a bad decision really turn everything around?

Author and director Niki Stein poses this painful question to his protagonists and the public. The dead man was a man who could no longer resist the centrifugal forces of life when his son died of cancer at the age of twelve. He has lost contact with his family and his home. “He probably wouldn’t have lived long anyway,” speculates Johanna Delien. “It was an accident. He wasn’t lucky, either,” she says, trying to stop Ben from confessing. The achievements of life are compared and evaluated against each other. The commissioners discuss the consequences of a single mistake and, for once, disagree on this point.

The Stuttgart squad’s 29th case isn’t exciting in the classic sense, but it’s still worth watching. Viewers have to deal with uncomfortable truths and probably realize how much a person’s state can affect the vision of a crime.
