Terrorist activities

Arrest and imprisonment

Haule was arrested in an ice-cream parlour in Rüsselsheim on 2 August 1986. She was charged with the failed bomb attack in Oberammergau as well as membership in a criminal organisation, robbery and falsification of documents. On 28 June 1988 she was sentenced to 15 years imprisonment.

Haule was due for release in 2001, but charges for the Rhein-Main Air Base bombing and murder of Edward Pimental were brought against her. New evidence, which included Haule's own letters to another RAF member in prison containing self-incriminating information, were used to prove her guilt. Her sentence was extended, and she was moved to a women's prison in Neukölln. She stated that 'an end to her detention was not foreseeable.'

Parole was granted on 17 August 2007, with her release set for 21 August.[3] However, officials released her on the 17th in order to protect her from the media.[4] She has since shown no remorse for her actions as a member of the RAF.[5]

Photography

Haule attended photography classes in prison and now takes portraits of other imprisoned women. Her collection, called "Portraits of Women under Captivity", has been exhibited.[6]
