Stabbing Death of International Law Professor Shocks City
A 16-year-old boy, Daniel Mingues of Manhattan, was charged with murder after the daylight stabbing of Columbia University international law professor Wolfgang Friedmann near campus. Three youths attacked him over a wallet and wristwatch, with Mingues admitting involvement in the mugging but denying wielding the knife. The case drew swift citywide outcry from Mayor John V. Lindsay, who ordered round–the–clock search for the other assailants. Friedmann, a Berlin native and long‑time Columbia faculty, survived a prior mugging years earlier and held degrees from Berlin, London, and Melbourne universities.
