Strangled - 2016 - 7/10
AKA - A Martfüi Rém
Réti stalks his girlfriend as she leaves the shoe factory, attempting to reconcile.
Not interested. So he threatens her, smacks her, and the next morning her body is found.
After a few days of police interrogation he confesses and is sent to prison. Case closed.
Except a few years later, a similar murder occurs. Followed by another, then another.
Local police come under extreme pressure.
Communistic Hungary does not make mistakes! There is no serial killer in Communistic Hungary.
In other words, investigators cannot let on there is a sex murderer loose.
Or that the State could possibly have made a mistake.
Political interference and restrictions enhance based-on-actual-murders series.
