He also operated a funeral business for a time.〔 Additionally, he ventured into the business of trafficking asylum seekers to Germany, proposing to combine the former with his organ donor business if the asylum seekers were unable to pay.〔〔(Viel Geld für eine Affenfahrt ) ''Der Spiegel'', published: 22 May 1989, accessed: 21 November 2010〕 It was for his role in the trafficking of asylum seekers and providing them with false papers that he was sent to 15 month in jail on probation in 1992.〔(Graf verurteilt ) ''Hamburger Abendblatt'' (subscription required to access full text), published: 26 November 1992, accessed: 22 November 2010〕 When his house was searched by the police in 1987 in connection to the trafficking of asylum seekers, it was the 14th time that the police had done so in just a few years.〔(Funktioniert prima ) ''Der Spiegel'', published: 29 June 1987, accessed: 16 September 2011〕 German newspaper ''Die Zeit'' described his reputation as a "businessman without scruple". He was mainly active in the 1980s and, during that time, attracted media attention, but has not done so since his conviction in 1992.〔 By his own description, Graf Adelmann is a "man with many ideas".〔 ==Biography== Rainer Rene Graf Adelmann von Adelmannsfelden was born under the name Rene Freiherr von Godin as the son of a Bavarian lawyer in 1948. He married Michaela Gräfin Adelmann von Adelmannsfelden (born 1953) in 1973 and the couple had ten children, born between 1974 and 1988. His wife is the niece of the late German federal MP (1957–1961) Raban Graf Adelmann (1912–1992).〔(Adelmann von Adelmannsfelden ) worldroots.com, accessed: 22 November 2010〕 Rene Freiherr von Godin assumed the title Graf Adelmann von Adelmannsfelden in 1980. During the mid-1980s, the couple resided in the village of Sentenhart, near Wald, between Lake Constance and Sigmaringen.〔 The Bavarian ministry of justice cancelled Graf Adelmann's registration as a lawyer in the state in 1982 for discrediting acts unworthy of a lawyer, however, Adelman took the case to the ''Bundesgerichtshof'' but eventually decided to discontinue his registration himself.〔〔 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Rainer Rene Graf Adelmann von Adelmannsfelden」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
