„Hinterkaifeck der Oberpfalz“: Ein Dreifachmord und die letzte Hinrichtung in Amberg

„Sie werden wissen, um was es sich dreht“: Es ist der Beginn eines seitenlangen Geständnisses eines Mörders, der 1935 drei Menschen im Kreis Cham tötet und deswegen hingerichtet wird. Seine Briefe sind einmalige Zeugnisse eines Verdammten.
