Questão jurídica principal
Whether the prosecution for sexual acts with dependents under Art. 188 StGB had to continue.
Decisão extraída
No. The accused had no factual subordination or dependency relationship with the apprentice; his higher position in the kitchen was insufficient.
Fundamentação extraída
Art. 188 StGB requires a concrete dependency based on legal or factual subordination, usually a trust relationship. The apprentice was assigned to the restaurant supervisor, not to the kitchen chef, and no special authority or trust link with the accused was shown.
