A former nurse of Michael Schumacher implicated in a sordid affair

The defendants are accused of having demanded 15 million euros. In exchange, they would not publish photos of Michael Schumacher after his accident. The nurse is cited in the official indictment as “involved”in this case, but she was not charged with any offence. “Fritsche (one of the accused) said that the nurse needed money and that the plan was to sell the equipment and split it three ways, me, him and her. Actually, I did not meet her; I saw a picture of her and that was it”.

In her testimony, Schumacher's manager Sabine Kehm described the nurse as being very involved in his care after his accident and that she “seemed to get on very well with Markus Fritsche”. 

“We had problems with her”

The revelations are then numerous: “But finally she left, we had problems with her, we had problems with the way the care was provided. We saw some unpleasant things.”

Among the poor care, the witness says: “There was a computer that the caregivers and medical staff had access to, and they have the codes, if anyone else had accessed that computer, it would have been noticed. Corinna [Schumacher's wife] and I automatically suspected that it could be her; it could only be her”.
