The "Reichsbürger" Trial Continues In Frankfurt

FRANKFURT AM MAIN, GERMANY - MAY 28: Defendant Prince Heinrich XIII Reuss (C) arrives for the start of a session of the trial against himself, a former MP and ex-army officers accused of masterminding a conspiracy theory-driven plot to attack the German parliament and topple the government, on May 28, 2024 in Frankfurt am Main, Germany. Nine defendants, including the co-ringleader, a far-right aristocrat named Heinrich XIII Prince Reuss, are facing trial for their involvement in a conspiracy of the "Patriotic Union" to violently overthrow the German government and revive the German Empire. Police raided the group in 2022 and arrested 25 people, including Reuss, as well as former Bundestag MP and Alternative for Germany (AfD) member Birgit Malsack-Winkemann and former police and special forces members. The other accused are facing trials in Frankfurt am Main and Munich. (Photo by Boris Roessler - Pool/Getty Images)
