We have to assume Samir Schuchter is one of our killer's victims.

A witness saw someone close to the scene

The desecration of the statue of Mary

A TERRIBLE STORY OF THREE SORCERESSES OF DERNEBURG

The church had to...

sow fear,

They talked about witches and sorcerers.

Something like that wears off quickly.

Without a name or a face.

But once a spark of hatred
