Last winter, a 33 years old woman died of hypothermia close to the peak of Austria's highest mountain, Großglockner (3798 m), in the night, in winds of up to 74 km/h and - 8 ° C.
Her boyfriend has now been indicted for "grob fahrlässige Tötung" (grossly negligent homicide? never sure about the translation of legal terms).
He called emergency services at 0:35 and is accused of leaving her at 2 AM without protecting her from the wind.
He was way more experienced than her and in Austria, that can lead to legal responsibilities similar to a guide.
When a helicopter (alerted by other mountaineers who saw their lights from a hut [edit: it was actually the hut's webcam, I don't think anyone was at that hut]) reached them at 22:30 they didn't indicate they were in trouble. By the time emergency services reached her by foot at 10 AM, she was dead.
