In the last episode of the season, Vera Lanz first has to deal with a bank robbery and a dead bank robber. Questions about the course of action arise early on, since the amount of money stolen appears to be very small. Much to Vera's displeasure, her opponent, senior public prosecutor Dr. Seitz got involved in the investigation. But then the inspectors received the news that Seitz's wife had been found dead. Seitz is a suspect and "The Boss" is to investigate and prove his innocence. In the survey of Seitz' ex-girlfriend Ulrike Laske, she confirmed his strong willingness to use violence, which is why she ended the relationship at the time. Seitz is coming under more and more pressure, which Vera doesn't exactly dislike. However, in the Maike Seitz case, she believes in the innocence of the chief public prosecutor.
Evidence soon emerges that the two cases are connected and that the bank robbery was targeted money laundering, of which Seitz was aware. But Vera Lanz and her team lack the evidence. Still. Last episode of the current season. From Friday, May 3, 2013, four new episodes of the series "Der Kriminalist" will be broadcast.
