‘Let the jury consider their verdict,’ the King said, for about the twentieth time that day.
‘No, no!’ said the Queen. ‘Sentence first – verdict afterwards.’
This is something that the Tundra Tabloids has to admit overlooking, and thanks to the Gates of Vienna’s Baron Bodissey for highlighting this salient point: Elisabeth Sabaditsch-Wolff never called Mohamed, the founder of Islam, a pedophile. But even if she did, that should never be a crime. KGS
The Baron elucidates the point for us:
The judge in the case, Bettina Neubauer, convicted Elisabeth for saying that Mohammed was a pedophile. There’s only one problem: Elisabeth never said any such thing. As the transcript of her seminar demonstrates, Elisabeth in fact said that “Mohammed had a thing for little kids”, the plain facts of which even the judge was forced to accept.
In other words, the judge in Elisabeth’s trial, acting on her own initiative, put words into Elisabeth’s mouth and then convicted her for saying them. […] Elisabeth did, however, use the word “pedophilia” in her seminar, but only to describe what Susanne Winter had done to earn her own “hate speech” conviction. Elisabeth sent us a note this morning explaining all of this:
In my seminar I described a conversation with my sister.
It was January 2007, I think, and my sister called me about the scandal Susanne Winter had caused by saying what she said. I told her that it was public knowledge that Mohammed had married a six-year-old and consummated the marriage when she was nine. I then said that if this isn’t pedophilia, then what is?
She said, no, you can’t say it that way, you have to word it differently, more diplomatically.
I said, well tell me how. She was silent — she didn’t know.
What’s important here is that I was recounting a story that happened before Winter had been convicted, and it was the only time on record that I actually used the word.
In all other instances I circumvented the word by saying “Mohammed had a thing for little kids”, knowing that Winter had been convicted for saying what she said.
And still, judge Bettina Neubauer called me a “repeat offender” and fined me heavily.
Here are the exact words I was found guilty for [see also the German transcript above]:
