The Magdeburg Assassin as a Doctor

The author Prof. Dr. med. Dipl.-Psych. Wolfgang Meins is a neuropsychologist, doctor of psychiatry and neurology, geriatrician and adjunct professor of psychiatry. In recent years he has worked primarily as a court expert in the civil law area.

To be honest, I find it difficult - after everything that has happened in recent years - to write anything more about migrant crime. It is simply too bleak and the prospects for a radical and, above all, rapid improvement are too bleak in view of the parties that are setting the tone here and their representatives. So be it.

When I read tweets from the attacker from the last two or three years late on the evening of the Magdeburg terror attack, my first thought was: We are dealing with a delusional patient. After some research two days later, I found that the most likely variant was a delusional personality disorder that the perpetrator had been suffering from for some time but had become more pronounced in recent years, but possibly also a delusional disorder that has emerged in recent years or perhaps even schizophrenia, which cannot be completely ruled out at present.

My second thought was, of course, how unbelievable it is that an asylum seeker - among other misdeeds - could openly threaten a German medical association with a serious attack in 2013 without being immediately taken into deportation custody, only to leave the country soon after, never to return. Even if, when you look at it soberly, that doesn't really surprise me.

The next thought was whether we are actually dealing with a qualified medical doctor here, or with someone who has benefited from the lax German controls on migrants or asylum seekers compared to other countries, who simply claim to be a doctor and can perhaps even present something like a university degree certificate.

Such considerations were encouraged by the statements now available from employees at his last place of work, a forensic psychiatric facility where he was nicknamed Dr. Google. However, it is not a forensic clinic for people like him, but specifically for criminals with addiction problems who are serving their prison sentences there.

Within the status hierarchy of medical professions, he may not be at the bottom of the pile, but he is not far from it either. According to statements from employees, it did not seem as though we were actually dealing with a doctor or even a specialist. But in this case, appearances are clearly deceptive. Which leads to the question of how many eyes were turned and how often before he finally became a specialist in psychiatry.

What is particularly irritating is, of course, that here, under the watchful eyes of his colleagues, someone was mentally distancing himself more and more from the real world over a long period of time - clearly visible in his increasingly crazy tweets - which he posted in considerable numbers to an equally considerable number of followers. But, as I try to explain, the attacker may have benefited from his ennobling migrant status on the one hand, and from the tight job market for doctors on the other. A forensic addiction clinic located deep in the central German provinces is certainly happy about any doctor who is willing to work here - and they are happy to let things slide.

The assassin clearly had other ideas about his medical career in Germany. This becomes clear when you enter his name - Taleb Al Abdulmohsen - into Google Scholar , the search engine for scientific literature. Surprisingly, you get three hits, namely scientific publications between 2010 and 2013. The author's addresses are given as the psychiatric departments of university hospitals - in chronological order: Bochum, Hanover and most recently Stralsund, where the assassin evidently completed most of his psychiatric training.

The publications are not original research, but two articles in the journal Medical Hypothesis which , as the name suggests, deal with certain hypothetical considerations which still need to be substantiated by corresponding studies. The third publication, from 2013, is a detailed letter published by the American Medical Journal and which may already hint at paranoid ideas: He directly and blatantly accuses the head of a psychiatric department at the MHH of "stealing" his idea of ​​a study on the treatment of anxiety patients with Botox. The head of the department turned him down at the time. A year later, however, two of his colleagues published exactly such a study.

Against this backdrop of the failure of his career aspirations, which clearly continued at the Stralsund University Hospital, it becomes more understandable that from around 2015 onwards he became increasingly interested in non-medical problems. This primarily refers to his very specific fight against Islam, which ultimately resulted in a mass murder of non-Muslims. However, this was only made possible by an ideologically fixed, experience-resistant migration policy - supplemented by a security concept for the Magdeburg Christmas market that does not deserve the name.

Another expert for Zufahrtssicherheit (=access security, yes there is such an branch, and it even has DIN normations for security measures at access areas to public events), was on TV yesterday, and he totally and compeletly picked apart the authorities for the way they left wide open the access area and had no measures at all in place. He chuckled at the auhtorites and did not even try to hide his ridicule for their flawed thinking. He said this was utmost failure at decision making level and an ignoration of even most basic security considerations. All bollards and obstacles are simply useless if you leave just one vulnerable opening unsealed. Its like with a chain - the weakest ring decides the stability of it all. Ha also said that many concrete bollards provde a false sense of securit yonly, since they are not fixe din place - a racing truck simply would crash into them and turn them into projectiles flying in to the crowd , with the imaginabble consequences. Such concrete cubes and concrete obstacles are popular over here in germany since they are cheap. Well - you get what you pay for. Better are retractable steel bollards that can be lowered and raised again as needed. It would also spoil the cityscape less in many places, where these things stand around all year round and exude the charm of a castle under siege.
