On Whitsunday, June 6, 1976, a 28 year old daughter and her partner approached her parents' weekend cabin, situated on a remote meadow by the forest's edge just outside the quaint village of Sven in the Swiss countryside. Upon noticing traces of blood and several cartridge cases underground, as well as the unusual absence of her father's car, They were instantly filled with horror, drove back to the village and rang the police. Upon their arrival and investigation on the scene, the police discovered 5 lifeless bodies, each bearing at least 1 gunshot wound to the forehead fired at point blank range. The grim scene bore a striking resemblance to a cold blooded murder committed by the mob. However, this wasn't a bustling restaurant in southern Italy, but a secluded cabin in the Swiss countryside.
