Günther, a 75-year-old from Essen, disappears without a trace. The neighbors are very worried. No one suspects that the senior citizen has become the victim of a gruesome crime. The body is actually only found two months later - in a green rain barrel, buried in the garden of a villa in Essen. The hiding place is so good that not even the cadaver dogs have been able to detect it. The perpetrator was Günther's tenant. During the trial at the Essen district court, he later said: "I always have the image of the poor man in my head who is now dead because of me."
