Applauding Elisabeth Fritzi

It's funny.

If you'd search for Elisabeth Fritzi in Google, you'd end up with my blog. My traffic jumped and all because I wrote about Elisabeth Fritzi. Obviously, I'm not the only one obsessed with finding out what happened to Elisabeth and her children.

Anyway, here are the latest updates:

  • Police are worried that the granddaughter/daughter of Monster Fritzi with his daughter, Kerstin, may have been subjected to the same sexual abuse.
  • For the first nine years of confinement, Elisabeth and four of her children shared a single room where the Monster Fritzi repeatedly raped and violated her in front of the children almost three times a week.
  • Kerstin is doing better but is still unconscious. She still needs respiratory assistance.
  • Money are flooding in support of Elisabeth and her family. *Thank God.
  • Monster Fritzi is allegedly a regular of a local brothel where he was known for ordering prostitutes to play dead when having sex. *Go figure.
  • Monster Fritzi's lawyer is trying to pass off the crime as something Fritzi did as a result of some sort of mental disorder.
This last news made me so angry. They are trying to blame an illness for that man's actions! His actions were calculated and methodical, carefully planned and enforced up to the last nail of that cellar. He carefully created that cellar for Elisabeth for six years with the government's money. A person with mental disorder cannot think through things long enough to make any decision. A person with mental disorder act on his impulse and often his delusions. Mental illness does not take away the innate goodness of people.

Fritzi's action was planned and carefully followed through. He showed no mercy or compassion. He even presented himself as a "jovial man" in front of everyone. Everything was calculated and he thought he could get away with it. He was not ill - perhaps, he was. His disease emanates from his soul. He has no heart and no soul.

On the other hand, I applaud Elisabeth. You'd be amazed at the tiniest details revealed on how she tried to protect her children against the horrible truth. We don't know though if she was successful at it. Was she able to protect Kerstin? Was she fighting or was she only bidding for her time? She told the children "Heaven is upstairs". Did she give up on ever coming out?

Thanks for some latest update on the Elisabeth's story. It is an awful story I have come across in many years. It is constant nauseating feeling whenever the story of Elisabeth life comes to my mind and a deep pain. I wish that she gets all she deserves after this much of horrendous torture she has been through. I wish that the Austrian Government and supporting Organizations provide her and to her children enough facilities to see that she quickly comes out of this trauma and leads some normal life during her rest of the life. My prayers are always with her and her children.
