at the beginning of the process from the man – tall, slender, thinning hair, dark suit, white shirt – a full confession. However, he pointed out to the court, in a friendly tone to the fact that the indictment listing all of his crimes. There were “still some more”.
indictment: the hardware and Software purchased, private
The 41-year-old Jörg R. hock it was from 2011 to 2015-Executive employees of the Bavarian S-Dax company, Wacker Chemie AG, from 2016 onwards, he worked as an IT buyer at a subsidiary of Nemetschek AG (TecDax and the MDax). According to the Prosecutor’s office, Jörg R. has purchased on account of his two employers for more than a Million euros in hardware and Software, and you are selling privately, such as via the online portal “eBay classifieds”. The profit he had forfeited for himself””.
The most serious case was, therefore, in January 2016. In the name of Nemetschek AG appointed Jörg R. a total of 1432 licenses of the operating system Microsoft Windows Server 2012 R2.

Subsequently, the defendant sold the valuables “private”. Here, Jörg R. price gave buyers discounts of up to 30 percent compared with the shopping.
Before the court showed: The million-fraud is the classic story of a Manager who always wanted to be faster, higher and higher, and at the end of a dramatic crash. A Manager that is driven by unhealthy ambitions, and the fear was eating away, to find in society any real attention.
outsider: “I always look only through the keyhole”
“The Party is taking place behind the door, but I always look only through the keyhole”, he later gave during a psychiatric examination to Protocol. He felt as an outsider, wanted to prove it to everyone. With hard work, but if necessary, by illegal means.
The son of a humble background (father: carpenter, mother: house-wife) was looking for attention and recognition, especially in the workplace. He took up a Job after the other and always got a salary step higher, from an initial 35,000 euros annual salary of at least 160,000 euros. He rarely remained longer than two years at a company.

There was a lack of money for heat insulation and plaster to the bursting of the credit threatened. “The Bank sat us in the neck”, says Jörg R.. Added more debt and some foreclosures. “Since I’ve started to get me money.”
He ordered Goods in the name of his company, sold it privately and made it the first Time a couple of thousand Euro profit. That was enough for the thermal insulation of the house, who managed to survive continue to be significant in credit delivery.
judge speaks of the “inverse snow-ball system”
However, Jörg R. had to pay for the Goods ordered is also really, otherwise he would be flying immediately up. So he ordered in his company more, this time even higher value added Goods, which he sold, in turn, private. With this money he could pay the first fraud business. According to this scheme – the judge spoke of a “reverse snow-ball system” – did Jörg R. on and on.
“I’ve stuffed a hole, but after 60 days, the next larger hole opened up,” said the defendant. “I had to close it again.” On the question of whether the person responsible was noticed in the case of Wacker Chemie is never something that shook Jörg R. the head.
