The Seewen murder case (1976) was one of the biggest Swiss crime cases and is the biggest Swiss murder case. 5 people were killed, and the suspect remained unknown after the 20 year time bar expired in 1996. ==Course of events== The killings took place during the Pentecost weekend of 1976, in a weekend house named "Waldeggli" located in a small allotment garden. The allotment garden stood in a protected forest in Seewen, Dorneck, Solothurn, Switzerland. Five were killed during 13 rounds of shooting with a Winchester rifle. 11 of the shots hit the head region of the victims while the other 2 shots landed in the chest region of the victims. Robert Siegrist, the son of two of the victims Eugen and Elsa Siegrist-Säckinger, wrote in his book ''Der Mordfall Seewen'' that one of the victims was shot four times in the hit, with each shot hitting the victim with precision. The 5 victims were: *Siegrist-Säckinger, Elsa Clara (aged 62 at the time of death) *Siegrist-Säckinger, Eugen (63), husband of Elsa Siegrist-Säckinger *Westhäuser-Siegrist, Anna (80), sister of Eugen Siegrist *Westhäuser Emanuel (52), son of Anna Westhäuser-Siegrist *Westhäuser Max (49), son of Anna Westhäuser-Siegrist The crime was discovered on June 6, 1976 by a female pedestrian. When the police arrived, they found four corpses in the house with the fifth wrapped in a carpet on the terrace. It is suspected that only Elsa and Eugen Siegrist-Säckinger were meant to be killed, but the killer was surprised at the presence of the other three people and killed them as well. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Seewen murder case」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
