Episode 047 : Pia murders

True Crime Finland

In 1991, the body of a young woman was found floating in a bay. It seemed like her case would be left unsolved until another body was discovered years later.

This case was a listener suggestion – thank you Johanna for the request.

We are putting together a true crime event for the first time here in Finland. It will take place in Hanasaari, Helsinki, on the 15th of August this year, 2019. I would be so happy to see you there! Please go to: www.truecrimeevents.fi for tickets and more information.

I will also be going to the True Crime Podcast Festival in Chicago this summer as a registered podcaster. For more information and tickets, please visit www.tcpf2019.com
