The Killing at Åker, 1765

about 1 h 15 min · 1–4 players

Åker parish in Småland, Christmas 1764. The farmer and neighbour Anders Johansson of Härsköp is found slain, suspicion falls on the farmhand at the neighbouring farm, and in the autumn of the following year the condemned man is taken to the moor east of Åker church. The motive was never written down — the record bears names, dates and the verdict. A true case from Swedish legal history: the real condemned man, the real victim and the real execution, with the sources in the record.
