As some of you may know, I am a university student. The new semester starts next week and I'm going on my final year. I'm supposed to graduate next spring if all goes well and because of that, after today's episode I will switch my schedule and publish new episodes only once a month. That way, I can focus better on my master’s thesis and get some rest. Thank you for all the support thus far and I hope you will keep listening!

Episode 048 : Europositron Jun 14, 2019

*I apologize in advance for any echo in this episode - I had to record in an empty apartment as we moved this week*

On the 29th of October in 2007, inventor Rainer Partanen was arrested suspected of aggravated fraud. In total, 270 Finnish and foreign investors had put over 1,3 million euros of their money into the company that was claiming to revolutionize how batteries were made. But the police were now saying the invention did not exist. How exactly did we get here?

We are putting together a true crime event for the first time here in Finland. It will take place in Hanasaari, Helsinki, on the 15th of August this year, 2019. I would be so happy to see you there! Please go to: www.truecrimeevents.fi for tickets and more information.

Episode 046 : Tulilahti double murder May 17, 2019

In 1959, best friends Eine and Riitta got on their bikes to ride through Eastern Finland and see the Koli national park. They never returned from their trip.

Along with the Bodom lake murders and the case of Kyllikki Saari, this is one of the most legendary in Finnish criminal history and has been requested a few times.

We are putting together a true crime event for the first time here in Finland. It will take place in Hanasaari, Helsinki, on the 15th of August this year, 2019. I would be so happy to see you there! Please go to: www.truecrimeevents.fi for tickets and more information.

***Disclaimer: this first episode and a few other early ones have audio issues. I have planned to re-record, but until then, please keep that in mind. It is best to start with newer episodes to get an accurate idea of what the podcast is like now.***
A family is found murdered inside their own home in a sleepy part of town - what has happened?

Here is the letter mentioned in the episode loosely translated from Finnish :

Good evening!

We need help towing a car today in Peuramaa. A camper van, Mercedes Benz. I will arrive with my wife at half past eleven and we will wait for the tow truck there. We need to be towed to Malmi Veho.

Greetings,

Matti Paananen
