A double episode of “Murder on Sunday” is about the GDR border victims, people who lost their lives on the inner-German border. Part 2 will be released on May 3rd.
Fulda – The inner German border was once strictly guarded, deadly secured and for many the last attempt on the way to freedom. In the double episode of “Murder on Sunday” Sabrina Mehler and Daniela Petersen talk about people who paid for this attempt with their lives.
Crime podcast “Murder on Sunday” (41): GDR border victims, part 1
Part 1 is about three fates that could hardly be more different: Peter Eck, who dies in the minefield while trying to escape. Wolfgang Graner, who was shot 60 times. And Joachim Erdmann, only 17 years old – and so desperate that he can no longer see a way out at the border.
But it's about more than just the acts themselves. Sabrina Mehler and Daniela Petersen ask: Who is the perpetrator – the shooter or the system? And can what happened at the inner-German border be dealt with fairly in court?
