The Robbery-Murder at Endrebacke

about 1 h 30 min · 1–4 players

Boge parish on Gotland, late summer 1862. One night a labourer breaks into the home of an old boatswain's widow, strikes her so that she dies a few days later, takes what he can carry and sets fire to her living room. The case passed through the district court, the court of appeal and His Majesty the King before the axe fell — and when it was to fall there was no executioner left on the island. A real case from Swedish legal history: the real investigation, the real verdict and the real execution. Everyone involved has long been dead, and everything in the file comes from public records and contemporary press — the sources follow the case.
