"Omastiti brk" ovdje znači "okoristiti se" ili "(p)obrati vrhnje", narodski rečeno:). Dok smo mi drugi "rintali", oni su obrali vrhnje (kao neki naši političari).

: U ovom kontekstu može samo druga verzija. Absahnen tu najbolje paše.

možda bi kontekst podnio da su ....ihre Hände im Spiel hatten? .... haben ihre Schäfchen wohl ins Trockene gebracht? možda posluži kao inspiracija...

: ovo sa Leiche im Keller je možda previše drastično, ali moguće da odgovara. Neko ko je izvukao neku korist nauštrb drugih i eventualno zloupotrebljavajući svoj položaj, uz to dobro prikrivajući dokaze o učinjenom

Puno hvala na komentaru, Sandra! Ja se uživjela u krimić:))). Kontekst je, jasno, presudan, uvijek je poseban izazov kad treba prenijeti "slikovitost". Oni maste brke, a prevoditelj si čupa kosu:))))
