When her daughter is treated for a serious liver disease in a Hamburg hospital, her mother moves to the Ronald McDonald house, which offers parents shelter in such cases. The father occasionally stays there as well.

Probably after a fight he stabbed his wife in the evening of 1 February 2017. He tries to cut her head off, but gives up. It is not known, but probably she said that she does not want to return to him and want to lead her own life.
