Oil stain offender

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Oil stain offender is a name given to the person responsible for a series of attacks that began in southern Germany in April 2007, in which an unknown person filled green wine and clear champagne bottles with used oil at least eight times , from which the label was removed, mainly on winding country roads Throwing the moving car onto the opposite lane, causing accidents in the following vehicles. A 37-year-old motorcyclist was killed in the spring of 2011.

Due to significant deviations in the modus operandi, it is not certain whether a case of bottle drops in March 2013 after a two-year break on a heavily frequented state road near Dießen am Ammersee can also be attributed to the perpetrator. It is noticeable that the crime scenes stretch across two federal states and the crimes occurred more frequently on weekends.

The investigations were carried out by the Ölfleck investigation team from Kempten until April 2016 . Since there is no direct influence from the perpetrator on his arbitrary victim and no direct eyewitnesses are available, the investigations are difficult, so that the OFA ( Operative Case Analysis of the Bavarian Police ) was called in, which assumes an over 30-year-old individual perpetrator who Commits deeds out of a sense of power in order to increase his or her low self-esteem .

As part of the investigation, a voluntary DNA comparison with a DNA trace was carried out on over 1400 men , which could be found on the bottle caps found in connection with the fatal incident. Although this DNA screening has been negative so far, the quality of the trace is so good that it could be entered in the nationwide DNA database and the offense can be clarified in connection with a future hit, if necessary.

Several private individuals as well as the police offered a reward totaling 53,000 euros for information that led to the clarification of the crime.
