Dirty Laundry is a detective radio play of the series of radio crime scene . The original text comes from Frank Göhre , who provided the script for the first and only time for the Norddeutscher Rundfunk about the Hamburg investigator duo, Chief Detective Bettina Breuer and the undercover investigator Jac Garthmann. Dirty Laundry first aired on April 19, 2008. In addition to the main actors, Gerhard Garbers , Victoria von Trauttmansdorff and Edgar Bessen also performed well-known speakers.

The present 4th case of the entire series and the first case of the Hamburg crime scene primarily revolves around the prevention of product piracy of branded products from the sportswear sector, the backers of which apparently do not shy away from murder.

Product pirates sell counterfeit sportswear in large quantities as apparently discounted branded goods at a profit in northern Germany. Detective Chief Inspector Bettina Breuer from the LKA Department OK is deployed from Hamburg to contain the flood of dirty laundry . They want to smash the distribution ring and bring the real backers behind bars. As in the other episodes, the uncompromising Breuer is placed at the side of the bonvivant-like undercover investigator Jac Garthmann, who sees himself more as a musician. The cool, pragmatic career policeman Breuer and the intuitive side entrant Garthmann, whose concert activities as a pianist and solo entertainer conceal his investigative work, will collide several times, as Breuer always wonders why this amateur has been assigned to her. But Garthmann's observation and moral instinct will give her the best direction several times.

During an appearance at a sports anniversary at Rot-Weiß Lüneburg , V-Mann Garthmann catches the eye of its chairman Horst Ehlers. The jovial mid-fifties would have every reason to complain in view of his apparently idle sporting goods shop, which is hardly frequented. In contrast, he is in a good mood, even if he is arguing violently with his sister Christa, the shop co-owner, about the future direction of the joint business. A little later, Ehler's body is found in the basin of the port of Hamburg . Even if the local police believe there has been an accident, Breuer and Garthmann do not share this view in view of the circumstances. Garthmann also has evidence of contacts between suppliers of the counterfeit products and Ehlers. Now one of the tracks leads him to Hamburg, where the goods seem to be hidden in a warehouse of an Asian food wholesaler. Are there Russian or Chinese gangs behind the machinations or do the counterfeit products even come from the same companies in Asia that even produce the originals?

So far, dirty laundry has been the only excursion by the writer Frank Göhre into the detective radio play, which incidentally has only one other radio play model in its complete works with the semi-documentary radio play Berufsbild (1971). Nevertheless, the detective writer and screenwriter significantly shaped the design of the two polarizing main characters Breuer and Garthmann, who are subsequently described by two authors ( Death of a Diver , The Yellow Vices , Störtebeker's Revenge , Total Loss , The Blue Yacht , Matthias Wittekindt ; Schlick , Sunken Graves , Chicken Highway , Elisabeth Herrmann ) was picked up. The radio play was one of the first ten of the radio crime scene, which was published as a series of the Hörverlag in 2008. All other radio plays have not yet been released on record and are temporarily available for download in addition to the broadcast .

Alexander Geringas, spokesman for Ludwig Richter , 2009
  • “In the first Radiotatort from Hamburg, the figure of Jac Garthmann is particularly convincing. The musician, who plays his way through northern Germany as an entertainment pecker, is one of the most interesting characters who have ever entered the Radiotatortbühne. Contrary to the first impressions that one had from the table of contents or the representation of the figure in the press releases, the Garthmann heard is a little older and calmer - hard action is not really his topic. Martin Reinke plays the character very believably, the rather calm role is taken from him through and through. His "colleague" is the detective Bettina Breuer (played by Sandra Borgmann), who can only show a few facets here. In direct comparison with Garthmann, your role is a bit "dry". Precisely because of this, this duo promises a lot of excitement in the future. The subject of the case itself is quite original, but it also runs along well-worn tracks and well-known crime structures. In addition, he is a little too much in the shadow of the framework story, the figure Garthmann itself attracts significantly more interest here. "
  • “In the media in which the references to radio broadcasts, if any, could only be found with a magnifying glass, radio is being heard again. And the reviews - no matter how they turn out - they are even detailed! "
  • The episodes Der Emir (WDR), Dirty Laundry (NDR) and Himmelreich und Höllental (SWR) qualify Martin Z. Schröder from the Süddeutsche Zeitung as “sleepy patchwork tinkering” (...) and “crime scene snippets folder”. Only the actors showed a decent routine. Otherwise, the reviewer criticized the increased lack of imagination, deficiencies in the psychological drawing and a conspicuous attitude to let the calamity from abroad break in on the German idyll - "under the guise of unintelligent criticism of globalization".
