The Murder of the Dean of Länghem

about 1 h 15 min · 1–4 players

Länghem parish, 15 July 1827. The dean and parish priest Johan Martin Lidell is struck by a shot out on the fields and carried wounded into the rectory; he dies only nine days later. The trail leads toward Torpa manor and a former gardener who served there, and on 8 January 1828 the axe stands ready at the execution site in Svenljunga before thousands of spectators. A real case from the records of Kinds hundred and the Göta Court of Appeal: the real investigation, the real weapon and the real verdict. All those involved have been dead for generations, and everything in the file comes from public records — the sources accompany the case.
