Genetically not a good idea. I feel sorry for the kids-even the healthy ones. Why did state take away 3 of them?

A brother and sister from Zwenkau, Sachsen, are currently in the centre of a case to go before the Bundesverfassungsgericht, Germany's highest court, regarding §173 of the Strafgesetzbuch.
Patrick S., aged 30, and his sister Susan K. aged 22, are currently fighting previous court rulings against Patrick, who has already served over two years in prison for incest.
The couple have four children, two of which are handicapped, three of whom are currently in care, the youngest child currently lives with Susan K.
Patrick S. has since been sterilised, by his own choice it should be noted.
Lawyers respresenting the couple are fighting §173 SfGB on the grounds of an unconstitutional involvement in sexual self-determination, a right enshrined in the German constitution (Grundgesetz).
The couple did not grow up together and only met as adults, as both were taken into care as children. There's an interesting topic in today's Guardian about genetic sexual attraction (GSA) which covers this couple and contains a interview with them and their legal team
