New clues in the murder case: Investigators are looking for witnesses from two cities!
In the north of the Allgäu, where the mountains hug the hilly landscape, investigators are digging for new clues in the tragic murder cases of two girls. The focus is on the mysterious actions of twelve-year-old Marion Baier, who died near Oberasbach in 1973, and 13-year-old Sonja Hurler, who fell victim to a devastating crime in 1981. Both cases carry a dark pattern that is now being brought back into the light. What is particularly noteworthy is that the police see parallels between the two acts, which are linked by both their time and the brutality of the attacks, as Tag24 reports.
After the investigation was revived in 2023 using modern forensic methods, the authorities in Kempten and Middle Franconia are looking for new clues. The criminal police have secured DNA traces from the evidence that could point to possible perpetrators. During a series of tests, saliva samples were taken from 300 men who lived nearby at the time. Unfortunately, the tests did not produce any results, which does not make the search for the perpetrator or perpetrators any easier and presents the investigators with a new challenge.
The girls and their fates
The fates of Marion and Sonja are tragic and shocking. Marion Baier was killed on the night of July 2, 1973 after attending a festival in Zirndorf. She was about to go home when the disaster began. Almost eight years later, on the night of July 4, 1981, Sonja Hurler was murdered while she was leaving to visit her grandmother after an argument with her mother. These two summer nights are now of great interest to the investigators involved and the public, as T-Online reports.
The alleged crime scene of Sonja Hurler's murder is in the immediate vicinity of a summer festival at the Tom Mutters School in Thingsers, which prompted investigators to look for contemporary witnesses from this time. The criminal police in Fürth are particularly interested in pictures of the fishing festival in Zirndorf, as these could potentially provide important clues.
Reward and public relations
In order to further investigate the cases, the State Criminal Police Office has offered a reward of 10,000 euros. The authorities hope to obtain new information to solve Marion Baier's murder and arrest the perpetrator. The public relations work, supplemented by the appearance of the cases in the ZDF program “Aktenzeichen
As the investigation continues, thoughts remain with the two girls and the countless questions that their fates have left behind. The hope for clarification and justice brings investigators and the public together - perhaps we are on the verge of shedding light on these dark chapters of the past.
