We passed the goal long before the period ended. It seems many want to help the case along and all it needs is time.

One of the fundamental pillars of our democratic societies is the judicial system that in turn has two key working mechanisms, the constitution with its laws and independence from politics. However, democracy is fragile because it assumes that all play a fairly. One level of protection should be the independent media whose mission is to observe and report. When this fails and the judicial system becomes compromised, the only thing that can save a democracy is the People. You are the People.

Removed double statement as it appeared under "reason". Changed "factual" to "claimed". Other than this all is factually correct and easily verifiable to anyone.


New petition description:

Dr. Reiner Fuellmich, a respected international lawyer, has been held in pre-trial detention in Germany for over two years on disputed embezzlement charges many see as politically motivated.Key factsclaims that should concern every citizen:

  • Irregular transfer from Mexico (Oct 2023): Lured to Tijuana under false pretenses (passports & settlement talks), detained without legal basis, forcibly returned on a deportation order issued after arrest — an extra-judicial operation that mirrors extraordinary rendition.
  • Over two years pre-trial detention: Including solitary confinement and conditions described as white torture — disproportionate for a non-violent allegation.
  • Trial irregularities: Evidence suppression, apparent bias, selective prosecution. Original prosecutor dismissed the case; a replacement revived identical claims.
  • Pending appeal: Fuellmich remains imprisoned in JVA Bremervörde despite an ongoing appeal at OLG Braunschweig.

This is not just about one man.If the state can abduct a lawyer from abroad, hold him for years without fair trial, and suppress evidence — who is safe?If it can happen to Reiner Fuellmich, are we next — any journalist, doctor, lawyer, or citizen who questions power?WeWe demand:

  1. An independent external inquiry into the transfer from Mexico and the fairness of the proceedings.
  2. Immediate release from pre-trial detention pending appeal, in line with ECHR standards.

Reiner has over 100.000 supporters via social media, substacks and other sites. The subject, the defence of rule of law, is of profound importance for not just Germany but for all of Europe and for the evolution of our societies. The forces in effect are subverting this fundamental pillar of Democracy.
