De R. has been in the Van Mesdag TBS clinic in Groningen since 2014. As with the previous extension two years ago, he made a frail impression in court today, but his condition is said to have deteriorated less rapidly than had been expected at the time. He muttered softly that he really likes the Groningen TBS clinic. He is well cared for there and still does odd jobs on the institution’s farm every day. “Not as heavy as it used to be, but I want to keep going,” he said. “You’ve been a farmhand for a long time, so you must be good at that,” noted the presiding judge.
