Time Travel Question 30: Murder and
Disappearance Edition III
Given that Roanoke and the Dyatlov Pass Incident are credibly solved, though not 100% provable, I'm leaving them out in favor of things more mysterious. I almost left out Amelia Earhart from a previous edition, but the evidence there is sketchier.
No, I'm not doing JFK. I refuse.
Please add new suggestions below, if you have them, for future consideration.

Lake Bodom is a lake in Finland, located on the suburbs of Espoo. It’s approximately three kilometres in length and on kilometre in width. In the early morning hours of 5 June, 1960, it was the scene of a brutal triple murder of young campers. Maila Irmeli Bjorklund and Anja Tuulikki Maki were both 15-years-old. Accompanying the two friends on their camping trip were their boyfriends, Seppo Antero Boisman and Nils Wilhelm Gustafsson, both 18-years-old. They pitched their tent close to the lake and spent the evening fishing. Between 4AM and 6AM, Maila, Anja, and Seppo, were all stabbed and bludgeoned to death. Nils was the sole survivor of the attack, sustaining a concussion, fractures to the jaw, bruises to the face, and stab wounds. Nils would later say he had no recollection of the attack due to shock. An investigation revealed that the killer never entered the tent and instead, attacked the teenagers from the outside of the tent.Β 
Several items belonging to the teenagers were stolen, including a wallet, some clothing, and Nils shoes. Due to the bloody footprints found outside, it was evident that the killer had been wearing Nils shoes when he fled the scene. Approximately 500 metres from the crime scene, some of these items, including the shoes, were discovered discarded and partially hidden. Nils’ girlfriend, Maila, sustained the most vicious injuries - her underwear had been removed and she had been stabbed multiple times post-mortem. Several young boys who were birdwatching would come forward to claim they saw a blonde man walking away from the collapsed tent at approximately 6AM.
Over the course of the investigation there have been several suspects. One of the prime suspects was Karl Valdemar Gyllstrom, a kiosk vendor at Lake Bodom. He was known for his aggressive behaviour towards campers and shortly before his death, he confessed to his neighbour that he had killed the teenagers. In 1969, however, Karl coincidentally drowned in Lake Bodom - it’s unknown if it was intentional or accidental. His wife provided an alibi for Karl for the night of the murder, saying he was fast asleep at home but shortly before she passed away, she claimed that this alibi was fictional and that he had threatened to kill her if she did not cover for him.Β 
Another prime suspect throughout the investigation was Hans Assman, an alleged KGB spy. The day after the murders, he checked himself into the Helsinki Surgical Hospital. He was said to be extremely dishevelled, with black fingernails, and something red staining his clothing. The doctors who saw him that afternoon were adamant that the red staining was blood. Hans had blonde hair which he sloppily chopped off after a description of the attacker, as given by the birdwatchers witnesses, was released in the media. His clothing was said to match the description of the clothing given by the same witnesses. Nevertheless, he was never brought in for questioning but several books have been written about him and he has been linked to several others unsolved murders in Finland. In fact, a man who looked strikingly similar to Hans was photographed at the funeral of the victims.
The case went cold until 2004, when Nils Gustafsson, the sole survivor, was arrested on suspicion of murdering his friends. The reason Nils was arrested was because of DNA testing that had been carried out on his discarded shoes. Nils defence contended that the shoes must have been stolen from him and worn by the killer but the prosecution argued that Nils was the killer and had thrown away his shoes afterwards in an attempt to conceal his guilt. The prosecution claimed that Nils wanted to have sex with one of the girls and killed them all in a fit of rage.Β 
Ultimately, the court agreed with the defence. They believed that the eyewitnesses that spotted a blonde man leaving the crime scene were credible and it was unlikely that he could have inflicted his own wounds himself. He was acquitted of all charges and the case still remains unsolved.

#(today i was distracted by this way too elaborate olli/allu + olli/tommi + allu/joonas murder mysteryAU set in the early 50s i came up with#(which you are welcome to ask more about btw)
oh????? πŸ‘€πŸ‘€ please do tell some details about it if you want to? i'm very interested πŸ‘€πŸ‘€πŸ‘€πŸ‘€πŸ‘€πŸ‘€
have an amazing day πŸ’–πŸ’•
Yes yes yesssss!! 😌 But before I proceed, a couple of disclaimers: 1) the summary below is gonna contain referenced murder and sexual assault (NOT by any of the main characters though and nothing is described too graphically/explicitly), 2) it's rather vague in parts and I'm yet to figure out some of the details, and 3) I'm not planning on ever writing any of this, in fact I think it'd work better as maybe a TV series? I don't know. I for one don't have the skills (or patience) to actually write this (...plus I'm actually terrified by this whole thing myself ngl πŸ˜…). I hope you enjoy it though! As much as one can enjoy a murder mystery... πŸ˜₯
First I'm gonna have to explain what inspired this. I learned today that last week it was the 70th anniversary of one of Finland's most famous cases of unsolved homicide, the murder of Kyllikki Saari. The link will take you to the Wikipedia page of the case (in English), but to summarize it (skip the rest of this bullet point if you don't want to hear about stuff like this!!), a 17-year-old girl was murdered on his way home from a religious gathering and 5 months later her remains were found buried in a bog. To this day, no-one knows who's behind the murder; there have been a couple key suspects, but no clear evidence to prove anything for sure. There's also nothing that would directly prove it was a sexual crime, although it can't be ruled out, since the victim was not wearing any clothes on the bottom half of her body and her other breast was out of her blouse when they found her. Now PLEASE don't take me for some weirdo and think I'm somehow fascinated by the case or think it's cool: I'm creeped out as fuck about this tbh, but ever since I first heard about the case, it's been haunting me a bit. Not daily obviously, but every now and then something reminds me of it. In the late 50s - early 60s there were also two other equally famous, unsolved murder cases in Finland: the double murder of Tulilahti (two young women killed on their bicycle/camping trip, also buried in a bog + a number of other similarities with the case described above) and the Lake Bodom murders (three campers killed inside their tent, one camper in the group survived but suffered injuries that caused memory loss; the link will lead you to Wikipedia). This idea of mine is probably most inspired by the Tulilahti case, but only vaguely.
- So based off the cases I described briefly above, I'm basing this story in rural/countryside Finland in the 1950s or the 1960s (sorry for any possible historical accuracies that may occur πŸ˜…) - The story begins with Olli and Aleksi, two friends who want to... explore each other, themselves, and their sexualities, if you get what I mean 😏 They're not boyfriends per se, but they do enjoy each other's company maybe a little more than is appropriate for friends of the same sex (in the context of the 1950s/60s). Of course, this all has to happen in secrecy, and so they seek out secluded places for this purpose - One day they decide to go for a swim in a pond they had found deep in the forest. I know this story is full of plotholes lol but let's imagine it used to be a popular swimming place for kids and that an old, wooden changing room has remained there from those times. I don't know if such things existed in the 50s already, but please humour me a little and imagine a simple wooden hut with two rooms in which to change into your swimwear, yeah? (one for boys, one for girls) - So they go for a swim and have all sorts of fun in the water, and as the sun's about to set (as much as the sun ever sets in Finland in the summer), they head back to the hut. They should be changing back into their normal clothes, as soon it's gonna be too dark for them to easily find their way out of the forest, but they get a bit carried away... πŸ’ž - In the middle of their fooling around, they hear noises from somewhere by the pond. Two people talking in the distance, footsteps, etc. They can't recognize either of the voices from that far. - (plotholes plotholes plotholessssss) - After a while of listening to the noises in terrified silence (afraid of getting caught by whoever's out there), they hear screaming. - There are noises of fighting/struggling. The screams start coming closer to the hut. - The person (a woman, they can tell) is still screaming in terror when she's pushed to the other booth (the one next to Olli and Aleksi) - Then the screams are first muffled, then weakened, until they stop altogether. - Sounds of something being dragged. A man grunting. Steps around the (windowless) hut. Olli and Aleksi are paralyzed with terror and don't dare to even breathe. They stay the night at the hut, awake and trembling until the morning, not daring to sneak out until they're finally sure no one's around anymore and return home. - They find an item on the path from the lake. A watch maybe, I haven't decided yet. They can't remember seeing it before, but of course that doesn't mean it wasn't there already when they arrived. In any case, one of them picks it up and takes it with them. Just in case.
- I'm not sure what either of them do for a living in this AU, but I'm imagining Olli working at some kinda office (at the town hall maybe? I don't knooooooow) and Aleksi maybe as a farmhand with Joonas as his roommate (both details crucial to the plot) - They swear to each other to not talk about what they had heard in the forest to any other living soul, but when Olli returns to his office job the next day and hears that one of his co-workers (a woman around his age, more an acquaintance and a co-worker than a friend) has not showed up for her workshift, Olli gets a bad feeling. - Olli mentions this to Aleksi and says that they should go talk to the police about what happened, but Aleksi forbids him, as he's afraid they might get in trouble, not necessarily because they might be key witnesses to an alleged murder, but because of what they were up to at the time. - "What are you gonna tell them when they ask you what we were doing there, huh?!" - They have a proper quarrel about it and depart on bad terms :( - Obviously the case is bothering them both; even though Aleksi tells Olli to forget about the whole thing and act as if nothing has happened (between them nor in the forest), he has nightmares about the incident. He hears the screams of terror in his dreams and wakes up with a gasp (only to find out the screams had been just a seagull screaming outside at sunrise), which rouses Joonas' curiosity - Cue a side-plot of Aleksi and Joonas lending each other a helping hand/mouth to let off some steam before/after their farmwork (maybe Aleksi tells him he's just stressed about idk??, while Joonas has trouble coping with surpressing his sexuality, which obviously reflects on their thing). I'm not yet sure what's the purpose of this side plot, other than to give Aleksi (and Joonas) something to do during his fall-out with Olli
- Speaking of which, meanwhile Olli remembers that his old schoolmate / childhood friend Tommi works as a police officer in town these days. Olli can't handle keeping the secret to himself anymore, and without Aleksi around to stop him, he decides he can trust Tommi with it, without fearing what he might think if/when Olli needs to spill the truth about why he had been in the forest - Indeed, Tommi is curious to hear why (you know, for the purposes of the investigation), and Olli doesn't explicitly tell him, but rather... implies it. Not saying the words, but it doesn't take a genius to understand what he means - Tommi understands. He undertands perfectly well, in fact - Olli refuses to tell who the other key witness is, but agrees to help Tommi with the investigation as much as he can, if Tommi in turn promises to keep his little secret - Tommi is so into the case that he uses his free time on it as well, and he invites Olli to help him out at his house one evening (he still lives at his parent's farmhouse). - ...which means they have to be extra quiet when making passionate love to each other in Tommi's room πŸ₯ΊπŸ’• - Usually Olli manages to sneak out at night, but one time he accidentally falls asleep and doesn't wake up until there's a knock on the door - Tommi gestures Olli to stay in the bed and be quiet while he goes to get the door. - There's a man, asking if Tommi borrowed his watch again (he hasn't). Olli recognizes the voice. - When the man's gone, Olli asks Tommi who it was. Tommi's brother. (much older than Tommi and lives out of town, so Olli never knew him - Olli can't wait to get out of the house πŸ’€ - He practically runs to Aleksi to tell him about his discovery, and accidentally spills the whole thing to Joonas too (he didn't notice Joonas was in the room as well (nor does he pay attention to the fact he's half-naked on Aleksi's bed)
Aaaaaaand that's what I have so far 😬 I'm not sure if the plot makes any sense (for example, I have no idea what Joonas' actual role in this is), nor have I given much thought to the motive of the murder (secret lovers who got in a quarrel that was taken too far? a random lunatic losing his temper with a girl who rejected her? I don't knoooooow) or any details as to how the victim and the offender ended up at Olli and Aleksi's hideout (without noticing they weren't the only ones there at the time). I also have no idea how this all will be resolved. Will Aleksi eventually be ready to give his witness's report as well? Will Olli be able to tell Tommi who he thinks is the murderer and show him the watch they had found? What will happen to Aleksi and Olli if they have to publicly confirm they had heard the murder because they had been doing something illegal themselves in the next room? Will the body of the victim be found? I don't know πŸ€·β€β™€οΈ
Also, I'm sorry Joel and Niko are not in this, I just couldn't imagine them with in the 50s/60s setting with their long hair πŸ˜‚
