Voldsdømt hockey player at risk of economic slap in the face

When Kristian Jensen on Friday afternoon was found guilty of violence against Lucas Bjerre Rasmussen, got Frederikshavn-forwarden not only spotted straffeattesten. He had also added a significant risk for a financial penalty.

For with the judgment which changed some principles in relation to, if the whole bataljen had been settled without the court’s involvement, or Jensen had been acquitted.

– The interesting thing about the case is that the judgment does Lucas Bjerre Rasmussen to a voldsoffer, and a voldsoffer can after some conditions seek compensation from the criminal injuries compensation board. It is interesting, as Lucas Bjerre Rasmussen following the rules can get additional compensation, and for other erstatningsposter, than what he would usually be able to get replaced after a work-related injury, says lawyer Henrik Skoglund from the FV law Firm.

He points out that if a victim is being imposed substitute for the short-term ‘loss of earnings’ or even worse a more long-term ‘differencekrav on erhvervsevnetab’ – if Lucas Bjerre Rasmussen, for example, will find it difficult to continue as the season – so it is most often the offender, who must pay.

– I hope not, that the injury permanently impairs the Lucas Bjerre Rasmussen indtægtsevne, but should it happen, will he also be able to raise a so-called differencekrav on erhvervsevnetab, which can be quite significant.

– Gets the Lucas Bjerre Rasmussen compensation, will the compensation be paid by the police in the first instance, but may subsequently end up with Kristian Jensen, says Henrik Skoglund.

In Odense, there is cautious optimism in relation to a comeback of Lucas Bjerre Rasmussen. But even though it has been two months, not just with the first one, acknowledges the team he will play Henrik Benjaminsen:

– He played on our reservehold the other day, where he had to retire with nausea and headaches.

– We hope it goes quietly forward, but it is a process that takes time with a concussion, so we stress definitely not, says Benjaminsen, who also points out that Bjerre Rasmussen as a player is affected by the incident.

– By major injuries are you mentally affected when you return. We know that, and it also applies to bodily injuries, says sportschefen.

If it comes to a case for compensation, it requires that Kristian Jensen in the first place is not the anchor of the judgment, or that he once again will be convicted by an appeal court. Kristian Jensen’s defender has explained that they are considering appeal-the possibility.
