Princess von Wrede indicted

July 14, 1906

The Princess von Wrede, who was accused of "stealing silverware from hotels and restaurants," has been indicted and "must stand trial," according to the New York Times' Berlin correspondent. It was believed that the princess "would escape criminal prosecution," as she was regarded as a "kleptomaniac and placed in a sanatorium."
This has all changed due to the indictment.
