Live and act
Wilfried Rasch was born in Peine in 1925, where he lived until 1928. After the family moved to Berlin, his parents worked in a social institution for young people. He attended the Zum Grauen Kloster grammar school in Berlin until he was drafted into the Wehrmacht in 1942 . He obtained his Abitur while a prisoner of war in England. In 1948 he began to study medicine in Göttingen, which he completed in Hamburg in 1951 after changing universities.
Rasch then worked at the Psychiatric and Neurological Clinic of the University Hospital in Eppendorf with Hans Bürger-Prinz and at the University of Cologne . His habilitation thesis from 1964 Killing the Intimate Partner is considered a milestone in legal history and forensic psychiatry. He was also known for his intensive expert opinion practice before German courts, for example in the cases against the serial killers Jürgen Bartsch and Wolfgang Schmidt and in the proceedings against RAF terrorists . From 1971 until his retirement in 1993, Rasch headed the Institute for Forensic Psychiatry at the Free University of Berlin . His successor was Hans-Ludwig Kröber .
The clinic for forensic psychiatry of the regional association Westphalia-Lippe in Dortmund was named Wilfried-Rasch-Klinik .
