What sentences did courts give leaders and members in these cases?

Question

Accepted Answer

Courts sentenced the network leader and key member to prison terms ranging from 11 years 3 months to 14 years
A Frankfurt court sentenced network leader Zhang Dapeng to 14 years in jail, while another group member, J. Zhongyi, received 11 years and 3 months. The cases were tied to the “Driving School” network, in which prosecutors said drug advice helped enable rape and other violent assaults in 2024.
Zhang Dapeng’s 14-year sentence for multiple rapes and attempted murders
In February 2024, a Frankfurt court sentenced Zhang Dapeng to 14 years’ imprisonment. The court convicted him of seven rapes and four counts of attempted murder, stemming from incidents in January 2024.
J. Zhongyi’s 11 years 3 months sentence for repeat drugging, rape, and filming abuse
A separate trial led to a sentence of 11 years and 3 months for J. Zhongyi, a 28-year-old robotics master’s student from China. The conviction covered repeated drugging and raping of his girlfriend, along with filming the abuse.
The court’s finding on how the drugs were used to remove resistance
In J. Zhongyi’s case, the court found that the aim in each incident was to sedate the victim so heavily that she showed no defensive reaction even when in severe pain. This finding was part of how the court characterised the conduct as extreme in its impact on the victim.
Only two specific sentencing outcomes were provided for the group
Across the eight men implicated in the “Driving School” network, the detailed sentencing figures provided were for Zhang Dapeng and J. Zhongyi only. The information available does not include the prison terms or charge breakdowns for the other six accused men.
