The Double Murder in Stenåsa

about 1 h 30 min · 1–4 players

Öland, April 1841. In a cottage in Stenåsa parish, the two lodgers Jöns Olsson and his wife Brita Olsdotter are found beaten to death with an axe, and two chests stand broken open beside them. Suspicion first falls on a crown tenant farmer in the neighbouring village, but the tracks point to a young farmhand from Mysinge who went around the area offering small goods. A real case from Öland's legal history: the actual investigation at the Öland Southern Hundred Court, the actual verdict and the actual execution at Rösslösa gallows hill in Kastlösa in March 1842. Everyone involved has been dead for more than a hundred years, and everything in the file comes from parish archives, court records and public documents — the sources accompany the case.
