The Murder at Hejdegårda

about 1 h 30 min · 1–4 players

Gotland, autumn 1829. At the Hejdegårda farm in Hejde parish, the tenant farmer Jacob Olofsson is shot dead on his own land, and the one who held the rifle is no villager but a hired man. The investigation must keep apart the one who fired and the one who paid for the shot — two hands, one death. A real case from Gotland's legal history: the real investigation, the real verdict and the real execution at Stenkumla slope in February 1832. Everyone involved has been dead for nearly two hundred years, and everything in the record comes from church archives and public documents — the sources accompany the case.
