The Murder at Bureheden

about 1 h 15 min · 1–4 players

Storkåge in Skellefteå rural parish, the morning of 17 January 1836. The lodger Nils Petter Persson Sandström has strangled his young wife with his bare hands and tied a rope around her neck to make it look as though she hanged herself. He himself goes off to Bonnstan as if nothing had happened — and is not arrested until he returns home that evening. A real case from Swedish legal history: the actual investigation, the interrogations and the verdict through to the execution at Bureheden. Everyone involved has been dead for more than a hundred years, and everything in the file comes from public records — the sources accompany the case.
