李洋洁是一名25岁的中国建筑专业留学生，2016年5月11日李洋洁在德绍外出夜跑时失踪。两天之后人们在犯罪现场附近的灌木丛中发现了她被损毁的尸体，随后警方确认了两名20岁的犯罪嫌疑人。
According to prosecutors, the two lured her to an empty apartment and then sexually assaulted her. When they found Li still alive, they carried the severely wounded victim away and abandoned her outside.

The case aroused tremendous public attention in both China and Germany. The male culprit’s parents are both police officers, and dpa reported there had been temporary suspicion that the parents might have an influence on the investigation.
此案在中德两国都引起了轩然大波。男性犯罪的父母都是警察，而有报道称暂时有人怀疑嫌犯父母的身份可能影响了该案的调查。
Chinese expatriates and overseas students across Germany had held memorials in various localities following the tragedy, also demanding a fair and just handling of the case.
这起悲剧过后，身处德国的中国人和留学生在各地举行了纪念李洋洁的活动，同时要求对此案进行公正处理。
Li’s attorney Sven Peitzner told Xinhua Friday evening that their side is satisfied about the lifelong sentence for Sebastian F., but not satisfied about Xenia’s penalty or the court judgement that Xenia is not guilty concerning the murder. Xenia got five years and a half for rape.
周五晚，李洋洁律师斯文·派茨纳向新华社透露称，原告方对塞巴斯蒂安终身监禁的判决感到满意，但是不能接受齐妮亚5年半的刑期、以及法院认定齐妮亚没有犯有谋杀罪的判决。在判决中，齐妮亚因为强奸罪被判处5年半监禁。
Peitzner said the verdict specified that Sebastian cannot ask for probation after 15 years like those sentenced to life-in-prison do in normal cases, and he will stay in prison for longer than twenty years, because it is a "severe case" and because of the "heavy guilt" of the criminal.
派茨纳表示称，判决书表明塞巴斯蒂安不能像其他那些被判终身监禁的人一样，在服刑15年之后申请减刑，而他将在监狱里服刑至少20年，因为这起案件“性质恶劣”、“罪恶滔天”。
