The History of Thomas Kolo

Thomas Kolo, aged 15, living in poor conditions in Saarbrücken-Burbach. His parents often slap or punch him. He is part of a gang with seven other boys and he is limping because of a problem with his right leg. Because of his disability many other people, in- and outside the gang, are mobbing him.

On Wednesday, October 3, he didn’t go to school. Thomas was on the school bus and like so many other days, classmates laughed about him. When the bus stopped, he fell on the floor. All the passengers on the bus laughed at him while he was lying there. He got aggressive, slapped some of them and ran out of the bus. Thomas then decided, that he wouldn’t go to school that day. He walked around for some kilometres until he arrived at a bakery. He was so angry and disbanded, that he stole some of the sandwiches which were on display. Then he rushed to the leader of his gang. His name was Fedor Kruse, aged 16, and very tall for his age. He offered Thomas some special, delicious ‘cookies’, to make him feel better. A few  moments later Thomas could sense the effects of the drug.


The drug inside the cookies made him feel like he was riding a unicorn over a rainbow, but in reality Thomas had taken a motorcycle and rode it right into a gift shop. He destroyed the window of the shop and some products. His head was bleeding, his arms were broken and he had to go to hospital. After making a full recovery he was taken to court and his parents had to pay 2,950 € to the shop owner out of their own pocket and 1,350€ to the owner of the motorcycle. Now he is attending to a new school and he goes to a psychologist every week.
