Hi all.
Mystery Tuesday will be every Tuesday where I focus on one unsolved mystery.
You are welcome to give your own opinion on these cases !
This week is the case is about the Hinterkaifeck Murders.
This case takes places on March 31st 1922 where Andreas Gruber, his wife Cäzilia, their daughter Viktoria Gabriel, Viktorias' two children Cäzilia and Josef and lastly their cleaner Maria Baumgartner who all lost their lives in being murdered with a mattock.
Days prior to the murder Andreas told neighbors about foot steps in to the snow towards their farm house but not going back, he heard movement in the attic and also found a newspaper that was not previously on the farm.
It is believed that Andreas, Cäzilia, Viktoria and also her daughter Cäzilia were lured one by one to the barn and afterwards the killer went into the house where he killed Josef in his cot and Maria in her room.
There has been over 100 suspects, the most recent one being in 1986 but all to no avail .
Police first suspected it to be a robbery until they found a large amount of money in the house, also animals where still fed after the murders, food was eaten which was in the kitchen and neighbors reported seeing smoke from the chimney.
There are two movies about this case with the name of Hinterkaifeck.
What are some of your thoughts about this unsolved murder ?
Stay tuned for next weeks case !!
