Lake Bodom murders
The
Lake Bodom murders is one of the most infamous
unsolved homicide cases in Finnish criminal history. Sometime between 4:00 a.m. and 6:00 a.m. (
EET) on 5 June 1960, at
Lake Bodom in
Espoo,
Uusimaa, Maila Irmeli Björklund and Anja Tuulikki Mäki (both 15) and Seppo Boisman (18) were killed by stabbing and
blunt-force trauma to their heads while sleeping inside a tent. The fourth youth, Nils Gustafsson, then aged 18, was found outside the tent with broken facial bones and stab wounds. Despite extensive investigations, the perpetrator was never identified and various theories on the killer's identity have been presented over the years. Gustafsson was unexpectedly arrested on suspicion of committing the murders in 2004, but he was found
not guilty the following year.
