In 2021 Judge Christian Dettmar struck down a local government ordinance that required schoolchildren to wear masks in the state of Thuringia, Germany. At law, the judge was quite entitled to make that decision. But the government was outraged that any judicial official would defy their Covid dictatorship. The Higher Regional Court in Erfurt overturned his decision, then the elites went for Dettmar. He was charged and convicted for “perverting the law,” and given a two-year suspended prison sentence. His career as a judge thus came to an end. He will also lose his pension. The idea, of course, was to make an example of him, so none would dare disobey the Covid mandates dictates, whatever the harm was being caused to children. So much for the human rights of children.
Such harsh penalties for something a judge should not be convicted for shows that we have departed from liberal democratic ideals of the rule of law, and have entered the realm of technocracy of the Covid New World Order, as we are calling it.
