110 knew him well, and had a key to his apartment. It was a friendship. But he was addicted to boys. I was always telling him to be vigilant. He couldn't have anything in the house. I myself did not feel in danger. But I am disappointed about the movie coming out." Daniel H.: "In handcuffs, I was driven over to the vice squad in a SWAT team van. Laid out there were my photo albums with pictures of boys, whom I loved. In my journal, someone had written in red ink, 'legally significant.' My erotic drawings were highlighted in yellow. Five copies of the journal had been made. I almost couldn't bear it. A journal is extremely personal, almost sacred. And now, so to speak, everyone could read and mark it up." Daniel H.: "Once, I had a crisis. It was a profound sadness. The emergency psychiatrist gave me some strong medicine. After that I got additional, new medications. They prevented depression. Thanks to these medications, I was able to cope quite well. I was astonished at the results. Sadness was impossible." Daniel H.: "Of course then (when I filmed the boys in the nude) my sexual needs got the raw end of the deal. That was only a substitute. I liked how the boys undressed themselves. I would be satisfied to just watch the film during the evening. That's all it was to me." Sat-3 Moderator: "At this point, we interrupt the documentary. We do so because, in view of the fact that this hour there are still many children and teenagers sitting in front of the television screen, we have decided that the film segment that follows will not be shown. Peter Aschwander, how did these videos come about?" Aschwander: "The police had, of course, confiscated the collection of videotapes which they had found at Mr. Hartmann's home. From this material, they then put together their own video, of course selecting out the material which they deemed to be legally relevant. The result was actually a porno tape, which the police also scored with their own music." Mother: "Roman got riled up by the Hartmann case. He made an effort to process the whole thing. I noticed that he exhibited aggression towards Hartmann. Even though he was often with him." Mother: "Suddenly, Roman said that the children would be very mean to Hartmann. From that point on, I believed that he was able to process the matter. Daniel H.'s defense lawyer: "The district court sentenced him to 3 1/2years' imprisonment. He appealed. The Superior Court then sentenced him to four years' imprisonment." Father: "Roni was so appalled that, along with some friends, he started a petition. I advised him to get Hartmann‘s lawyer's view on this. Indeed, I then gave him the court's phone number. But of course, they wouldn't give out any information." Roni: "We didn't expect the petition would lead to an acquittal, but instead, for the Court to see that he was no child molester. We were not coerced, but went to him willingly." — End of Peter Aschwander's Documentary — Following the broadcast of the film "The Case of Daniel H." was a discussion. During this, viewers were invited to call in, even anonymously. The members of the discussion panel were the Frankfurt family lawyer Johannes Tillmann, the German Child Protection Association psychologist Sabine Busch-Murray, the Sat-3 moderator, Peter Aschwander, Roman's mother Monika Burkhart, and Roman himself. The following are excerpts from this discussion: Moderator: "Roman, why did you want to go public with this once again?" Roman: "First of all, because – as you have already said – they were also talking about me, and, because there are things which weren't clear, that I could clear up. And because the subject also interests me." Mother: "We, as the parents, did not have much say, because Roman had already decided to go public." To the moderator's question as to whether she, as the mother, would have been able to forbid it:
