Nothing is going well with German covidosceptics. While he hoped to condemn the virologist Christian Drosten and Lothar Wieler, director of the Robert-Koch Institute (responsible for monitoring the epidemic in Germany) to “billions” euros in damage caused by their measures to fight against the Covid, the lawyer Reiner Fuellmich finds himself confronted with his former comrades in the fight, who are claiming several hundred thousand euros from him badly administered.
Through collective actions that he promised to carry out in Canada or the United States, the German wanted to condemn these two representatives of the health authorities, accusing them of being personally responsible for the damage caused by the measures linked to Covid-19. According to his reasoning, Drosten is guilty of having developed the first PCR test and Wieler of having participated in the “fraud” of an epidemic which he does not take seriously.
In order to make them pay for all those canceled haircuts and closed restaurants, Reiner Fuellmich set up a kitty system promising traders who suffered losses to recover a share of the damages that would be paid later through a “ class action”, conducted in the United States and in several countries. It was to bring together thousands or even millions of victims around the world. To join her, the lawyer asked for the payment of 800 euros, excluding VAT, to the victims.
Popular pseudo-judgment
Lawyer practicing in Germany and California, defender of victims of Deutsche Bank or Volkswagen, Reiner Fuellmich has succeeded in becoming one of the main figures in the fight against health measures in his country. He was active during major demonstrations and within several structures, such as the so-called commission of inquiry Stiftung Corona Ausschuss (corona committee, in French), the collective Anwälte für Aufklärung (Lawyers for transparency) or the association Doctors and scientists for health, freedom and democracy. He was even nominated as a candidate for the chancellery by the small dieBasis party (which promotes the end of health restrictions linked to Covid) during the 2021 federal elections.
In the absence of a real trial in North America (his attempts have always been rejected by local authorities), he had to settle for a popular pseudo-judgment in February, dubbed Nuremberg 2.0. A reference to the trial that judged the crimes against humanity of the main officials of the Third Reich, but also to the Nuremberg code of medical ethics, which defines the conditions for experiments carried out on humans (and which the conspirators consider not respected by vaccination against Covid). On arrival, however, there was no judgment or conviction of their designated culprits (the virologist Christian Drosten therefore, the billionaire Bill Gates, the WHO or the chief medical adviser to the President of the United States, Anthony Fauci), but long hours of debates and exchanges of views on the pandemic.
Redemption of credits from his own house
However, as revealed by the editorial staff of the German news site T-Online, several former partners of Fuellmich are now claiming hundreds of thousands of euros from him and accusing him of having very badly administered the donors’ money. The harshest criticism came from Viviane Fischer, a Berlin lawyer and hatter behind the Corona Committee and an executive at dieBasis, often seen alongside Fuellmich. She accuses her former comrade of having been paid 29,750 euros per month (nearly 660,000 euros in total) by the Corona Committee for the processing of emails, when he had no access to these mails. This task would have finally been carried out by an employee paid less than 800 euros per month.
She also accuses him of having used 700,000 euros in donations, intended as “cash reserves”, for the purchase of credits from his own house and of having acquired gold with the money of the committee. , without telling anyone. Finally, she assures that Fuellmich did not use these funds to finance lawyers or legal experts for the class action, as he promised, since the proceedings in Canada and South Africa were entrusted to lawyers local volunteers.
Faced with these numerous accusations, Reiner Fuellmich defended himself by accusing Viviane Fischer in turn of having “psychological problems”, thereby making her appear incompetent. He also accuses her of owing 30,000 euros to the Corona Committee (from whom she would have borrowed 100,000 euros but repaid only 70,000 euros) and of having enriched herself with her companion, the retransmissions of the conferences of the committee having been entrusted to the box production of the latter.
