Crossbow-the mystery – a medieval självmordspakt

"The crossbow mystery – a medieval självmordspakt"

"The three dead in the house was fascinated by the middle ages"

"They shared the same passion for the middle ages, the knights and the jousting."

"And chose to die together – for the arrows from a crossbow."

"Farina, 30, shot the other two in the heart before she shot herself in the neck with the last arrow, now think German police."

"In the room at the guest house found their wills."

"Everything now points to the bizarre crossbow mystery at a boarding house in Bavaria in Germany was a självmordspakt."

"It is in all cases what the German police now."

"The three, who were found dead in their rooms at this idyllic guest house in Passau on Saturday, shared a passionate interest in the middle ages, of knights, jousts, weapons, and alchemy."

"They were all three members of the a association for tornerspelsutövare."

"the Man in the society, a 53-year-old in the German media mentioned that Torsten W., had a medeltidsbutik at home in Hachenburg, in Rhineland-Palatinate in Germany."

"Where he sold medieval swords, axes, knives, flags, and apparel, as well as mead, honungsölet like the vikings drank."

"In the evenings, he gave lessons in svärdsfäktning in the same room."

"Visible in shop was also a bizarre female mannequin in garters, bound with ropes and chains, insmetad with red color and with a large bandage around your head."

"At the 22-time in Friday night checked up in the guest house ”Zur triftsperre” in the outskirts of Passau, along with his partner, a 33-year-old woman, from the town of the Westerwald in Rhineland-Palatinate, Kerstin E. as she is mentioned in the German media, and a 30-year-old woman, Farina C., sales manager at a bakery in Wittingen in lower saxony."

"the guest house is located close to the austrian border and the three should have been on the trip in Austria, where they may have purchased any of the three crossbow they had with him in his white pick-up."

"Just two hours before they were called Farina C., and booked a triple room, for three nights, without breakfast."

"When they arrived in the rain, without either baggage or toothbrushes, paid her 300 euros, more than 3 200 sek, cash in advance."

"The odd trio – he in the strict suit and long white beard right down to the middle of the chest and the two women totally in black-and-pierced – stuck out among the pensionatsgästerna."

"After the desired ”godkväll” they took with them water and coca-cola and went up to his room on the second floor."

"What happened in the room during Friday evening and night there is no one who knows."

"at Any time after the reception closed downloaded trio the bags with the three crossbow in the car."

"When I the next day went into the room, after not having received any response when she knocked on, found the three people dead, shot with a crossbow."

"Torsten W. and Kerstin E. lay in bed and held each other in the hand. They had been killed by a arrow in the heart and after it been shot with more arrows."

"On the floor lay the Farina C. dead, shot with an arrow in the throat, not in the chest, as the first reports claimed."

"Any trace of the fight or scuffle was not in the room, not on the bodies."

"None of them had either been drinking alcohol or taken any drugs, shows the autopsy."

"According to the prosecutor, everything indicates a självmordspakt."

"To the three jointly come to the conclusion that Farina C., as the prosecutor believes, first shoot the pair in the bed, with several arrows, and then himself, with a last killing arrow."

"– We assume that no one else was involved in the three people's death, " says Stefan Gaisbauer, spokesperson for the police in Bavaria."

"What further proof of the theory of a självmordspakt is that Torsten W. and Kerstin E. had written a farewell note, which lay on the nattygsborden, next to their dead bodies."

"What makes the story even more strange and complicated is that two dead women were found, when the police on Monday went into Farina C's residence in Wittingen in lower saxony, 65 miles from the guest house."

"one of the women was Farina C's partner, a 35-year-old teacher of German and religion, and a 19-year-old young woman, who worked at the bakery, where Farina C. was sales manager, and then a time was written at the same address as the other two."

"In the apartment in Wittingen found no crossbows or arrows and does not appeared any signs of a fight."

"the Women were found after neighbors contacted the police, after the dead found in the house. The mailbox was flooded with mail and it smelled strange from the women's apartment."

"– They were always dressed in black, in the gothic style, " says a neighbor to the German media."

"Greeting, they should not have done, according to the neighbors."

"Maybe Farina C. and her partner are also the same dressed in black female couple has been seen together with Torsten W. and Ruth E. at home in the Westerwald."

"The two dead women in the apartment obducerades on Tuesday morning, but how and when the women died is still unclear."

"”It is now clear that there are no signs of external violence against the found women. The time of death is a few days back in time”, writes the police in a statement."

"the Connection to självmordspakten in Passau is completed – by Farina C., but if the women in the apartment were murdered or taken their own lives – or if any of them killed the other and then took his own life, which seems to be the police theory at the moment – is still unclear."
