No injuries on the skull?

OpenSubtitles recommends using Nord VPN

And we have nothing else.

This is quite absurd.

Why the hell did he make up a story about head injury?

He must have been convinced that we wouldn't find the body.

When he learns that we are recovering the submarine he

invents a story to explain why we will find blood in it.

From my side the problem is to make a proper case.

We still have no clear cut evidence.

But as there are no injuries on her head, then his story is clearly a lie!

Yes.

Yes, it is.

But only until he comes up with a new explanation.

And legally he can do that.

First he claims he put her back on dry land. Then he

buried her at sea after she suffered a head injury.

Now suddenly she didn't have a head injury.

And instead was chopped up before thrown into the sea.

Can he make a new story every time we find something?

According to the law, yes.

As accused, he can change his story as often as he likes.

So, the question is....

...can we disprove that it was an accident?

Can we disprove suicide?

And can we prove it was murder?

What happened?

What is the cause of death?

What was his motive?

No, we don't know.

Exactly. We don't know.

And we have the burden of proof.

The Investigation

Day 58 7ᵗʰ October 2017

It is blowing gale out there.

There is a northerly current of 1½ Knots. The sea

temperature is 7 degrees, but at least visibility is good.

I want a minimum of two men in each stage.

Stay close to each other.

It is cold and we are all exhausted.

Look out for each other.

Any questions?

Let's start all over.

What do we know?

We know she was killed or died accidentally.

What about suicide?

Is that totally impossible?

This is like a jigsaw where half of the pieces are missing.

Okay.

Let's at least look at the pieces we have.

We have a torso, legs and a head that has no injuries.

We have iron bars used to weigh down the body parts and same

has been found in the accused workshop, indicating premeditation.

We have panties and tights. We have a knife and some

clothes. We have books that indicate the accused

was fascinated by crimes and criminals and we have

witnesses describing him being sexually kinky.

We know he invited 3 or 4 other women onto his submarine, and all rejected.

And we know that the journalist instigated the

interview and sailed with him and then disappeared.

But what does it tell us?

That he killed her...

... butchered her...

...and threw her into the sea.

No. It tells us that she was butchered and thrown

into the sea, but not that she was killed.

We have found her head.

There are no injuries on it.

And he keeps changing his story.

That's not enough pieces?

No. Not necessarily.

No!

Musa and I have a meeting with the IT forensic guys tomorrow morning.

They are going through his computer and hard

drives. Maybe they will find something useful.

Does he know we have found the head and the legs?

Yes.

And he hasn't come up with a new explanation?

No.

What about his friends? Any new ones come forward?

No.

One of them must know something.

Hello. This is Jens.

I would like to hold a press conference.

Yes, I would like to share the latest discoveries.

Can you arrange it?

Great Thank you.

If we tell the press that there are no injuries on the head, so he has

been lying to us, then maybe some of his old friends will come forward.

And then maybe he will come up with something new.

Good Morning.

We would like to give an update in the case the press has dubbed the 'submarine case'.

Yesterday with assistance of the Navy's diving team, we have

found a bag in the morning, which we believe contains Kim Wall's clothes.

A sweater, skirt, shoes and socks.

In the bag we also found a knife.

And some lead sinkers to keep the bag from floating.

Around midday we found a leg

followed by another leg

and shortly after we found a head.

And the interesting fact is that there are no injuries at all on the skull.

and in fact no injuries at all on the head.

Hi, this is Cecilie's phone. Anders speaking.

Hi Anders. It's Jens, Cecilie's dad.

Hello.

umm... Cecilie is a bit busy right now.

She can't?

I've tried to call all morning.

Oh really? I didn't know that.

Can you ask her to call me?

Yes, of course I will.

Bye.

We are trying to put pressure on him to come up with a new explanation.

That hopefully is closer to the truth.

Or to get those in his circle that have

believed in his innocence to come forward and speak to us.

It's already two months.

We are of course glad that you have...

Well.. that you have found....

But I don't understand how little we know.

Every time you find something

he just comes with a new explanation. And now it is proven that he's lied.

But without any consequences for him.

How will we ever know what happened?

I wish I could tell you.

But you are still searching?

Yes. Of course.

The divers are working whenever the weather allows us.

Are they also searching for the phones?

That... that is not our first priority.

Why is that?

The phones may reveal what happened.

I understand.

Question is, if it is at all possible to find them?

Or if they have been covered in the sand on the seabed.

I'm ready to go down.

Yellow buoy up!

Well?

We found something.

I understand you found the saw?

What's wrong?

There is something wrong with the map.

What do you mean?

We found the saw down here.

But that doesn't match.

Based on the course, the submarine was never there.

How far is there between?

More than 200 meters.

How much does it weigh?

Can't it have drifted 200 meters?

My question exactly.

We bought an identical saw and sailed out a bit and threw it into the sea.

And?

It hasn't drifted with the current. It fell straight down to the bottom.

If we are to find the arms, then we need to review the course of the submarine.

We don't have any more info.

Well, we need to find it.

I called VTS in Malmö and told them we come over tomorrow.

I discovered that I know someone there.

We need to look at the radar tracks, second by second,

minute by minute, hour by hour until we have every detail.

How long will that take?

I don't know.

It has to be done.

We need to find everything.

We start by selecting buzzwords, like 'Murder', 'Submarine', 'Sex'

and similar and search for them in his files and search history

and if we find a match we see where it takes us.

This way we slowly but surely dig deeper and deeper into his data.

Then maybe you can classify the searches by motive?

Yes, we have already started that.

I can send the list to you as soon as we are done.

So you can add to it if we have missed any.

Great!

What if he has deleted some files?

We should still find some traces of them.

How so?

Once something has been saved, it is pretty impossible to delete completely.

There are inevitably some traces.

So what do you do if you really want to delete something?

Put in in the bath or smash it with a hammer.

How long will this take?

If we find matches and we start to

dig deep, then it can take quite some time.

How long exactly?

Weeks.

Or months.

They search for relevant key words, 'Sex', 'Submarine', 'Murder'.

And how far have they got?

Not very far.

It's apparently cumbersome and methodical.

Okay.

It looks as if your plan is working.

I've just had the defender of the accused on the line.

She said that her client has decided to come

clean and tell the truth about what happened.

He wants to be re-interviewed tomorrow.

Day 65 14ᵗʰ October 2017

What did he say?

He said that after careful consideration he had decided

to tell the truth about what happened that night.

And he explained that she did not die from

being hit on the head by the hatch and that he

had butchered the corpse because it was too heavy

to get up through the tower of the submarine.

So he admits to have butchered the corpse?

How did she die?

Well, he thinks it was lack of oxygen or carbon monoxide poisoning.

There was some issue with the engine and defective exhausts.

But... it was a long technical explanation.

In any case the hatch had got stuck when he was

up and outside while she was down in the boat.

And there was some kind of vacuum that prevented him to

open the hatch and when he finally did, he found her dead.

- And then he butchered her? - Yes.

Or no. He had first tried to carry her up but not succeeded.

And later that night he had decided to cut the corpse into smaller pieces.

And thereafter he had decided to kill himself which he then delayed or reconsidered.

And what about the tights and the panties?

He thinks it was during his struggle to get her out that her clothes came off.

But he hadn't really noticed it.

Every time you find something, he changes his explanation.

We need to find the arms.

If we don't see her wrists then his next story will be that

she committed suicide and he promised not to tell her parents.

We must be able to counter all explanations except murder.

You are still here?

Yes, I have nothing else to do.

I got hold of this submarine expert, Dytte Dyreborg.

Yes?

I will meet her tomorrow and take her through his latest explanation.

To verify if it is really possible the hatch got stuck like this.

Excellent.

It would be good to disprove that.

- I see you tomorrow. - Yes.

Hi, you have called Cecilie. I can't take your call, so please leave a message. Bye.

Hi Cecilie.

It's Dad.

Can you please call me back.

Look forward to hear from you.

We spent a whole day with transparent paper taped to the radar screen.

And drew dots.

Every time the radar picked up the submarine.

From 19.30 when they left and until 10.22 when the submarine sank.

Minute by minute by minute by minute.

There are more than 600 dots.

Has it changed our understanding of the course he took?

Yes.

Especially down here, in the southern part.

Look at this.

There is a large outward deviation that we didn't know about.

On the other hand it matches with us finding the saw here.

And it is down here you consider to search again?

Consider? We are just about ready to go.

I had an interesting discussion with the submarine

expert about the accused latest explanation.

What did she say?

She said that it is quite possible that there could be high

pressure leading to the creation of vacuum that would make it

impossible to open the hatch. But how he then still managed to

open it she doesn't understand. For her that would be impossible.

Okay.

So if this accident really happened then the hatch would

be so stuck that there would be no way to open it?

Yes, correct.

It would take a long time to balance the

pressure again to enable opening of the hatch again.

How long?

- At least one hour. - What's her conclusion?

We are missing some drawings of the submarine and

it's state after sinking makes it extra hard.

So what conclusions could she make?

She thinks his story is total fiction.

If it had happened, then there would have been huge heat blast that would have

caused the vacuum but also would have left significant marks on the body.

I've asked the Technical Institute to investigate

and eventually confirm in their official report.

But does she concur with Lars Møller that the submarine was sunk on purpose?

Yes, she has no doubts about that.

That should cheer up Jakob a bit.

- It's Jens. - LM here.

Really?

Hi Jakob. It's Jens.

Just wanted to let you know that we have found one of her arms.

No, just one for now.

Now, we bloody well go and find the other one.

Day 111 29ᵗʰ November 2017

We have a marking buoy!

Let's go.

Divers coming up to the surface.

YEEESSSS!!!!

YEEESSSS!!!!

I've just spoken to the parents.

They asked me to pass on their most heartfelt gratitude to you and your men.

It means everything for them, now to be able to bury their daughter.

Normally when we finish a successful day...

...the guys are in high spirits and happy.

And they talk about what to eat or drink...

...what to do when they get home.

But today, after getting back to shore, then....

...nobody said anything.

They were all completely quiet.

Incredible work.

We always try our utmost.

And then we hope it is good enough.

- This is Claus. - Hi Claus, it's Jens.

Hi Jens.

Claus, what do you have?

As expected, the cause of death is not to be found on the arms.

No signs of suicide. No restraints marks or anything at all.

Okay.

- Yes. - Yeah.

The question is - how do we find out what happened?

Yes, we need to find out.

So, suicide is off the table?

Mmmm.

That only leaves murder, right?

Yes, maybe.

Maybe we have enough to get him on murder.

But then he gets maybe 14 years and is out after 8 or 10.

To get him put away for life we need murder plus something more.

You know that.

What about rape?

Yes. That would do.

But to get him on rape, then we have to be able to prove it took place.

And that it happened just before death. Or it was planned.

Because, if it happened spontaneously after death, then it only counts as...

...a mishandling of a corpse.

And necrophilia.

And that's not enough.

We need to understand fully what happened that night, Jens.

And we will.

By finding the motive.

As expected cause of death is not found on the arms.

So we need to continue to wait for the cause

of death and the final report from the ME.

Can I borrow 10 minutes of your time?

Yes, of course.

So far we have found 7 files all about piercing of women.

Piercing?

What does it mean?

Well, that's a good question.

It is sexual text and fantasies about women being pierced through the skin and

flesh with a sharp pointy things - spears, pencils, knitting needles, needles, knifes etc.

How many wounds were there on the torso?

There were seventeen.

Do you think there is more of such things?

Most likely.

We have gone through his internet history. What websites

he has visited and what words he has searched for...

- Can I? - Yes, of course.

"Beheaded"

"Argony"

"Girl"

Three words the accused has searched for many times and latest

18 hours before the submarine sailed for the last time.

Isn't "Agony" spelt without an 'r'?

Yes, the spelling mistake is from the accused.

Despite the spelling mistake, the search gave some interesting results.

Including so called "snuff film" where a woman is beheaded.

You mean... for real?

We think... that it looks very real.

Is this something he has watched?

Yes, it is.

Latest, 18 hours before he sailed with the deceased.

In addition, we have found 3 short animations

with same theme, downloaded onto his computer.

Like a cartoon?

Beheading and piercing depicted in a sexual way.

May we see them?

I would not... recommend it.

Can I try and get a copy of the video he watched?

Was this all planned?

He took the lead sinks and the saw down to the sub that same day.

That contradicts his statement of trying to dispose of the whole body.

If he had no plans to use the saw, why bring it?

And we know that he tried to invite at least 3 other women to

come with him onto the sub that same day but they all rejected.

When the first 3 rejected it seems like he

gave up. At least there are no other messages.

But then suddenly he gets a call from the Swedish journalist that

previously had tried to set up an interview, asking again.

And then the plan is back on.

Is it correct, that there is absolutely nothing

that indicates they knew each other before.

Yes.

We all agree on that?

Then we can remove jealousy... revenge... and loathing as a motive.

Is there anything pointing towards money?

No?

Anything pointing towards politics or religion being motive?

Any political message or terrorism?

No.

Lust.

There are semen traces in his underpants.

He is well known in Copenhagen's sex clubs.

In the lead up to the killing, he is watching videos where a woman is beheaded.

All this points to a sexual motive.

Power?

Maybe he wanted to show or prove his power in some way.

Because he feels superior.

He had lot of problems with his projects, he had canceled his

sailing to Bornholm and his company was on the brink of bankruptcy.

Maybe that was his trigger?

His power and his control was vanishing.

The panties and tights also fit perfectly to a part in the Amager Man's book.

He wanted to prove himself by acting out the video.

He wanted to show that he could get away with it.

That gave him a rush.

Power!

Jens?

Can I come in?

What's happening?

"Beheaded", "Agony", "Girl"

We have our motive.

We have our motive.

If the ME concludes that beheading is the cause

of death then we are definitely on a winner.

And if not?

Then we have to back it up with the evidence we have and the video.

Worst of it all, is how coincidental it all was.

She tries earlier to get an interview.

It doesn't happen and she forgets all about it. Then suddenly she remembers again.

Calls again and gets hold of him and sets up the interview.

Completely unaware.

But he knew exactly what he was doing.

He had prepared it all.

She never stood a chance.

She had done nothing to him.

She was just curious.

Confident, happy and brave.

Exactly as our children should be.

Hello.

Hi Cecilie, it's dad. I'd like to speak with you.

- Hello! - Yes, I'll come down.

- Hi, love. - Hi.

I've tried to call many times.

Yes, I know.

- You didn't call back. - No, it has been busy, so...

I'm sorry about the other evening. I couldn't get away.

That's okay.

You know how it is.

Yes, I know.

That's maybe also why I haven't called you back.

What do you mean?

You will apologise and explain how important the

case is. I will say I understand. Even if I don't.

What would you want me to say?

I do have a job to do.

I don't know what you should say, but maybe nothing...

Maybe how I feel? I'm having my first child and ask if I'm scared and....

I just don't want to be disappointed again and again.

Tell me what you expect from me.

Well, I'm your daughter...

I need care and love and the feeling of...

...the feeling of being important to you.

You are important to me.

Listen to me, there is a young woman who has been murdered.

And her body thrown into the sea.

What the hell do you want me to do?

I don't know.

But if you don't know yourself, then please don't call me.
