TW for gory details in child murders
The Baneheia case in Norway.
Two little girls aged 8 and 10 were brutally raped and murdered by two men in the woods. The things that were done to them were deemed too horrific to ever be shared with the public, but my mom was friends with the person who performed the autopsy. They told her one of the girls had all her intestines out and the other’s head was barely attached to her body.
I was 6 when this happened and I remember being downright traumatised. I always told my mom I loved her before going out to play after it happened, as I wanted that to be the last thing I said to her if someone killed me ://
Another interesting fact is that one of the perpetrators has maintained his innocence through all these years, and his case is now up for review. He’s been imprisoned since 2000. It actually looks like he’s innocent. It was a witch hunt way back when, but he was texting several messages throughout the time the murders were happening, and the cell tower that connected with his phone wasn’t the one near the crime scene. So he is probably innocent, I think. The court threw this evidence out and his best friend - whose DNA was found inside the girls - said he forced him to do it.
It’s a a very interesting and HORRIBLE case. I can’t listen to true crime stuff about it because it upsets me so much. I just want to wrap my arms around those little girls
