about 1 h 45 min · 1–4 players

Gävle, the night of 24 August 1833. District constable and bailiff Carl Jacob Ekstedt is set upon and beaten to death with stones, and the trail leads to two naval reservists from the village of Alborga in Valbo and a third man from Sunnanås. At the extraordinary district court of Hille and Valbo two of them are sentenced to lose their right hand and be beheaded, and on 20 August 1834 they are broken on the wheel at the Årsunda/Valbo execution site — the county's last breaking on the wheel. A real case from Swedish legal history: the real investigation, the real verdict and the real execution. Everyone involved has been dead for more than one hundred and eighty years, and everything in the file comes from public records — the sources are included with the case.
