'My son has been abusing women for years' - Jerome Boateng's mother makes shocking claim against ex-Bayern & Man City defender as new court date set for alleged assault against ex-girlfriend

Boateng's mother, in an email to a Berlin lawyer, dated March 25, 2021, asserted that her son had been mentally and physically abusive towards women for years. This statement comes in the aftermath of the tragic death of Kasia Lenhardt, Boateng's former girlfriend, who took her own life on February 9, 2021, in Berlin.

WHAT HAPPENED?

According to the German publication <a href="https://www.spiegel.de/panorama/kasia-lenhardt-gewaltvorwuerfe-gegen-jerome-boateng-a-6a2b3539-0d2c-4249-93c1-76d64ed333b6" target="_blank">Spiegel</a>, Boateng's mother claimed: "My son has been mentally and physically abusing women for years, now Kasia Lenhardt has taken her own life and he still doesn't want to face the consequences of his behaviour."

WHAT HAS BEEN SAID

Investigations into Lenhardt's death by <a href="https://www.spiegel.de/panorama/kasia-lenhardt-gewaltvorwuerfe-gegen-jerome-boateng-a-6a2b3539-0d2c-4249-93c1-76d64ed333b6" target="_blank">Spiegel </a>have revealed compelling evidence supporting allegations of violence within her relationship with Boateng. Forensic analysis of Lenhardt's iPhone and extensive audio messages are said to corroborate her accounts of abuse. Moreover, it has emerged that Lenhardt allegedly intended to file a complaint against Boateng for bodily harm shortly before her untimely death.Chat messages retrieved from Lenhardt's communications paint a harrowing picture of the alleged abuse she endured. As early as October 2019, Lenhardt documented instances of Boateng's alleged violence, detailing injuries such as broken thumbs and hematomas inflicted by him.

THE BIGGER PICTURE

Speaking to Spiegel, Boateng's lawyer explained: "Due to ongoing proceedings, it is currently not possible for our client to respond to your questions in detail. Therefore, fundamentally: You are simply misinformed to a large extent; In addition, they are apparently only provided with selective information. He never physically attacked."

WHAT DID BOATENG'S LAWYERS SAY

In 2021, Boateng was <a href="https://www.goal.com/en/news/ex-bayern-munich-defender-boateng-ordered-to-pay-18m-fine-after-being-found-guilty-of-assault/bjpeuc1lucl61otputwf3l0v6" target="_blank">found guilty of assaulting and insulting his former partner </a>during a holiday in the Caribbean five years prior and a district court upheld the ruling in November 2022 but reduced the original fine from €1.8 million to €1.2m. Last September, the Bavarian Supreme Court overturned Boateng's conviction for physically assaulting due to procedural errors. Now, a new trial will begin on June 14 in a Munich regional court, <a href="https://www.bild.de/sport/fussball/fussball/neuer-prozess-gegen-jerome-boateng-termin-steht-fest-87533254.bild.html" target="_blank">Bild</a> reports.
