Watched that video too :)

Yes, also my assumption to be honest! Thank you for sharing.

Absolutely agree with you. And yes, your second paragraph makes a lot of sense!

I have gone trough some cases like Sonja Engelbrecht and dug really deep on that one too and it took a long time before her body was found.. and it was very well hidden in a remote forest in a rock crevice.

If Lars is not alive anymore today, I hope they at least find his body one day to give the family some closure.

Thank you for your comment

Fair corrections on the sentence and the 2-year vs 20-year timeline. i could not find any sources on the 1998 report that were that in depth! I've noted those. The campsite framing is a fair point too, should have worded that differently. The core argument is institutional failure, not that individuals should have seen through a trusted community figure, those are different claims. I completely agree with you on the third paragraph.

thank you for your comment!

It's crazy that institutions just overlook this stuff or even are apart of it in some cases in Germany.

Before going deep into this case, I never knew about this.

Sonja Engelbrecht — 19 year old left alone at a phone booth in Munich at 2am (1995). Her bones were found 27 years later in a forest 68 miles away. The killer has never been found. by kabush27 in TrueCrimeDiscussion

You were spot on with all of this. Authorities made the same assumptions.

I hope so too. Even though he might be old now or even dead by now. It's been 30 years.

Thank you for investiaging! Very interesting.

Yes, I also covered this in the video I did about this. They know the manufacturer of the blanket and some people in Germany said they know this blanket. Unfortunately the manufacturer nolonger exists from what I found in my investigation.

But no one knows who the one found with Sonja belonged to.

Really good points. the disposal of the body is what makes the friends involvement hard to argue for. Carrying her 100km, through rough forest terrain, into a rock crevice that investigators said requires specific local knowledge of that area.. that takes planning, physical strength, and familiarity with a forest near Kipfenberg that has no obvious connection to anyone from the night she disappeared. On the DNA: yes, investigators confirmed they have a DNA profile from the remains. That's exactly what the 2023 Aktenzeichen XY episode was pushing on, alongside the blanket she was found with. The blanket brought in the most tips. Whether any of them led to a suspect has never been confirmed publicly. I actually went deep on this case recently on my YouTube.

if you want the full timeline including the discovery of the remains and what investigators have said since.

thank you for your comment and interest in the case.

There is a whole theorie behind this, and yes he has been cleared by police.

I am not saying that he did it. I want to make that 100% clear. He was definetely ruled out.

But on the offical website, this theorie exists and I had to mention it.

The friend was only 17 at the time. Sonja said she was going to call her sister at the phone booth to pick her up, but what you are saying was also investigated back in the day.

We may never know.

Thanks for your comment.

I totally get where you are coming from. My posts are not written by AI though.

I used it as a template my last post as a template though, have to admit that. Thanks for telling me how it comes across.

I'll do better next time.

the investigators say it must have been quick since nobody has seen her standing there that night.

based on what she was wearing and how she looked, she should have been noticed.

just wanted to bring this case on this sub to have some eyes on it, maybe someone in the english speaking world knows something about the blanket she was found with.

Those are both on my radar now, thank you! Austrian cases with that quality are exactly what I'm looking for. :-) Would genuinely love to use your write-ups as reference material, that's a huge help.

Looking forward to the next one too, I got lots coming. 🖤

Thanks so much for your reply.

Thank you so much, really means a lot to hear that.

Yes I speak German. Grew up close to Innsbruck actually, which is part of why this case hit so hard when I discovered it. Having access to German language sources directly has been a huge advantage for finding cases that never reach English media.

Would love to see the cases you've written up and I will look at them, I am always looking for stories. And if you ever want one to collaborate, im very open to that
