However, she mostly kept to her strategy, begun during the first round of questioning, of trivializing her own activities and those of her friends from the Nazi scene and\/or of claiming not to remember. She tried to paint a picture of herself as insignificant \u2013 despite having been present, together with Kapke, at a number of important meetings. The witness still sees the Jena Nazi scene first and foremost as victim of \u201cpersecution\u201d by the government and left wing activists.<\/p>\n<p>2000 she had moved from Jena and worked as a summer worker on the island of Borkum. While in Borkum, she had received a visit from members of the domestic secret service, who had wanted information on Kapke. She stated that she refused all cooperation and immediately informed Kapke.<\/p>\n<p>The witness was confronted with several secret service documents and witness statements concerning her role back then \u2013 in all cases, she either denied everything or claimed not to remember. She denied having spoken to Schultze about his contacts with \u201cthe Three\u201d; she denied having distanced herself from Kapke in 1998 after he was accused of pocketing money meant for \u201cthe Three\u201d; she claimed not to remember having been visited in Borkum by Kapke and Wohlleben; she claimed not to remember a meeting with \u201cThuringia Home Guard\u201d leaders Kapke, Tino Brandt and Mario Brehme discussing an interview request concerning \u201cthe three fugitives from Jena\u201d; she claims not to remember having stood watch in 1996 when Beate Zsch\u00e4pe attacked and injured a young woman.<\/p>\n<p>J. was also asked question concerning the \u201cbirthday newspaper\u201d for Kapke. On 13 March, she had described it as a satirical reaction to persecution by the state. Today, she had to admit that many of the articles are not even close to being explainable that way. Most importantly, the paper contained an article on the concentration camp memorial Buchenwald being made into a \u201cgas station\u201d and Mundlos, Gerlach and Kapke being presented as the new and \u201csympathetic\u201d owners of \u201cgas for everyone\u201d \u2013 in German, this is a clear reference to the gas chambers of the Holocaust.<\/p>\n<p>The witness was also shown snippets of a BBC interview with THS leaders in 1998, at which she was also present. In that interview, one of her \u201ccomrades\u201d explained that multiculturalism was a form of \u201cannihilation of the people\u201d \u2013 a statement which she still brings into connection with Kapke. She claimed, however, not to remember that the journalist was given a copy of the \u201cPogromly\u201d board game at the end of the interview, as shown in the TV excerpt.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Lies and Trivialization, Part VI \u2013 Jana J.
