On the first day of his trial, Reinhard Fuellmich vigorously denies embezzlement, claims that his accusers want NOT justice, but to "line their pockets" with the money
From the start, when Fuellmich was seized in Mexico by agents of the German government, this case had a very fishy smell

Reiner Fuellmich appeared confident and aggressive at the start of the trial on Wednesday before the Göttingen district court . The former federal chairman of the small party “Die Basis” talked a lot and sometimes angrily. He repeatedly made derogatory comments about his former colleagues in the co-prosecution. This refers to the Berlin lawyers Antonia Fischer and Justus Hoffmann. They are demanding the 700,000 euros back in the criminal trial, but did not appear at the start of the trial due to illness. “The co-plaintiff wants to line their pockets with the money, that’s my opinion on the specific allegations,” said the 65-year-old, visibly upset.
700,000 euros were contractually granted as a loan
Fuellmich, Viviane Fischer and the Berlin lawyers founded the so-called Corona Committee as shareholders in 2020. At that time, the Corona measures were discussed and speculated about in hours-long online meetings. Among other things, the danger of the virus was doubted. The company, which was not registered in the commercial register, collected millions in donations online and opened several accounts, according to the indictment. In 2020 and 2021, Fuellmich received loans of 200,000 and 500,000 euros, for which there were contracts.
Garden “spruced up”: Fuellmich admits private purposes
According to Fuellmich, both he and Viviane Fischer had received loans from donations. According to him, to protect the funds from access by the state. Because in 2020 there were fears that the Corona Committee's accounts could be seized. Fuellmich vehemently denied breach of trust. "I'm not going to cut myself off and take the money we need to work," he said. He also admitted to using the money privately. His then colleague Viviane Fischer also did that with her loans, claims Fuellmich. Viviane Fischer has repeatedly denied this. Fuellmich also claims: "Fischer was in Göttingen and looked at what my wife did with the money," said the defendant. She “spruced up” the garden for 200,000 euros, including a whirlpool.
Former colleagues accuse Fuellmich of breach of trust
The defendant's statement is contradicted by the accusation and the view of his former colleagues. “Your own commitment should be free of charge, that was the agreement,” said Berlin lawyer Antonia Fischer when asked by NDR Lower Saxony. The public prosecutor's office also sees it this way: the statutes of the "Corona Committee" only stipulate non-profit activities. A selfless activity, no donations from company resources, no one should be favored by disproportionately high remuneration. In the case of the loans, the public prosecutor's office accuses Fuellmich of having had the goal from the beginning of using the donated funds privately and thus embezzling them. The chamber must now clarify whether the funds flowed lawfully or were embezzled. The verdict is due to come in March.
I have no idea what happened. But whenever anyone stands against the narrative amazingly a series of lawfare events happen. This is the new strategy from the left.
Viviane Fischer always gave me the creeps and I couldn't understand why Fuellmich was working with her. It is obvious to me now that Fischer is a government "Spitzel' with the mission to derail Fuellmich's efforts to expose crimes against humanity.
