- <p> FREED. GUNTER PARCHE, 39, assailant of tennis star Monica Seles;
- by a judge; in Hamburg, Germany. Almost more shocking than the
- courtside stabbing of Seles during an April tournament was the
- decision handed down in the case by Judge Elke Bosse--a suspended
- sentence. Bosse cited Parche's psychological problems and his
- expressions of remorse for the attack, which Parche claims was
- motivated by a desire to boost the prospects of Seles' rival
- Steffi Graf. The 19-year-old Seles was appalled by the sentence.
- "What kind of message does this send to the world?" she asked.
