On the basis of phenomenological particularities the described case of a triple murderer of women from East Berlin proves to be complementary to the casuistry of multiple homicide. In one day a 30-year old autopsy assistant killed three intimate female partners, ultimately his wife, in their respective dwellings. The first two homicides were test killings. The perpetrator was executed in 1970.
The case of a 13-year-old boy injured by a Spanish souvenir harpoon is reported. Shooting experiments with the harpoon showed that serious injuries can be caused. The results are discussed and compared with the rare literature.
