Sture Bergwall, also known as Thomas Quick between 1991 - 2002, was known as one of Sweden’s most notorious serial killers. He confessed to over 30 murders while he was detained in a psychiatric hospital. He was convicted for 8 of the murders he confessed to. In 2001, he stopped cooperating with the police, stopped his therapy sessions and hid from the spotlight for seven years. He met with a journalist Hannes Råstam, who made a documentary about him in 2008. He recanted all of his confessions during the documentary, and had all of his convictions quashed in 2013. So why did he retract his confessions and did he really commit these murders? Or was it all a big miscarriage of justice, the biggest in Swedish history?
