The accused killer was Klaus Grabowski, a 35-year-old butcher. On March 6, 1981, during his trial in L\u00fcbeck, Anna&#8217;s mother Marianne Bachmeier entered the courtroom with a concealed Beretta 70 pistol. She fired seven shots at Grabowski&#8217;s back, with six hitting and killing him. The incident captured national attention and sparked intense debates about vigilante justice in West Germany.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Marianne Bachmeier was later tried and found guilty of manslaughter and illegal weapon possession in 1983. She served part of her sentence before being released. Years later, she developed pancreatic cancer and passed away in 1996.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>(Source: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.newspapers.com\/article\/the-guardian-marianne-bachmeier\/110571834\/\">The Guardian Newspaper<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.the-sun.com\/news\/8862080\/marianne-bachmeier-cause-of-death-daughter\/\">The Sun<\/a>)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Summary<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>While Marianne Bachmeier did shoot her daughter\u2019s killer in a German courtroom in 1981, the viral video circulating on social media is not genuine footage.
