Damo know. The fate of little ida from wissen moves the AK-land, more and more volunteers get typed: 3464 people want to help – one not. In contrast to the mass of potential stem cell donors, there is a young woman who obviously wants to take advantage of the fate of the girl with cancer. Now your case has landed on the desk of the criminal police: the betzdorf officials have confirmed that they have started investigations.
Autohaus kamp in wissen filed criminal charges against the woman
The car dealership kamp in wissen has filed a criminal complaint – this is where the perfidious story about a temporarily missing rental car took place. She started just under three weeks ago.
The first mail arrived at the car dealership: with the RTL logo and a reference to the "wir helfen kindern" foundation, the supposed private secretary of frauke ludowig contacted us. "it was said that RTL wanted to support ida’s family with a loaner car," reports karin ermert in an interview with the SZ. She and her husband, kamp managing director jochen ermert, didn’t have to think twice: "we have been typed ourselves for 25 years, but we don’t qualify as a donor with ida. So we were glad to be able to help in this way."
At first glance, everything seemed credible
After all, it all sounded plausible: it makes sense that the mewis family could use a second car for their constant commute between wissen and the clinic. And RTL’s support for ida pleased the ermert couple – on the one hand because the little girl needs the help of many, and on the other because the mewis family is one of ermert’s circle of acquaintances. So the ermerts immediately agreed. "We didn’t talk about the details of the payment at all," reports karin ermert: "We were told that RTL would take care of it. And if not, that would have been in this case for us also in order."
On 15. on january, a friendly young woman arrived at the wissen car dealership, presented her papers, took the keys and drove off in a skoda kamiq. Unfortunately not to the mewis family – the car never arrived there.
Grandfather of seriously ill girl fell from all clouds
Of it the ehepaar ermert admittedly yet nothing suspected. it was only a week later that quiet doubts arose: the conspicuously printed car had caught the eye in front of a betzdorf fast food restaurant. "that seemed a bit strange to us after all."so jochen ermert asked ida’s grandfather about it – and was blindsided: "they didn’t know anything about a rental car."
This story makes
all of us very concerned.

even that could have been explained: when picking up the rental car, the supposed RTL employee had emphasized that the mewis family had deliberately not been informed, but wanted to surprise them. But of course the car dealership was now alarmed – and resorted to a ruse itself: "we called the woman who picked up the car and pointed out to her that the rental car was affected by a recall action. she reacted very friendly, but told me that she doesn’t know where the car is currently located."
the borrowed skoda stood in gebhardshain
However, a friend of the ermerts knew exactly where the car was – because AK-land is small, even too small to hide a car with conspicuous logos: "a friend told us that the skoda is in gebhardshain." and there hit the ermerts, along with the second key of the car. on the spot, the young woman still tried to keep up the RTL fable, reports karin ermert. But: a neighbor of the young woman had long since told the ermerts that the car has been parked here regularly for the past week. "we did not enter into any discussion and took the car with us."
We continue to fight for ida. The thing here makes
only make us stronger.

What remains? 800 kilometers on the speedometer, not a cent in the till – but above all a bitter realization: "i would never have thought it possible for someone to set up a scam on the back of a sick child", says karin ermert. "this story makes us all very concerned."
the mewis family has a similar situation. Ida’s grandmother, monika mewis-rorig, says in an interview with the SZ that "it’s all unbelievable": "I’m at a loss for words that such people exist."but if there’s one thing she’s learned in the last few months, it’s this: "we keep fighting for ida. This thing only makes us stronger."
Those who want to join the fight: on Thursday in gebhardshain and on Friday in katzwinkel, blood donors can be typed and thus join the ranks of the approximately 3,500 people who want to help ida.
