Stockholm, 20 June 1810. Crown Prince Karl August's funeral procession passes through the city, and the Marshal of the Realm follows it according to protocol. An angry crowd believes he is behind the crown prince's death; the riots grow, stones whistle around the gilded carriage, and at last he lies beaten to death in Riddarhustorget — while the guard stands drawn up without intervening. A real case from Swedish legal history: the real investigation, the real interrogations and the real verdict. Everyone involved has long been dead, and everything in the file comes from contemporary documents and public sources — the sources accompany the case.
