They fell in love at the "Alien" creator's place
The bizzare lovestory of the horror-couple
It begins with the "horror" artist H.R. Giger
They have much in common: The suspected Rütli-bomber Gabriel M. * (35) and the Car Park Killer Caroline H. * (35). Both like weapons, both are fascinated by the military, and both are criminals.
The blonde Austrian-born and the Asian got to know each other in 1996. Their strange love story begins at a vernissage of artist H.R. Giger in Lucerne. "Caroline came with her father," recalls the creator of the "Alien" movie monster H.R. Giger.
Artist H.R.Giger and Gabriel M. have been friends since the late 80s. The electrician helped the "horror"-artist build mini train tracks in his garden. "He told me he had formerly been a elite soldier in Canada," says Giger.
Federal prosecutors suspect Gabriel M. of having set off a bomb during a celebration last August 1st, by time fuse. Now he sits in jail. Just like his ex-girlfriend Caroline H. - for two counts of murderer to women and 50 counts of arson.
Before her trial Caroline H. spoke to psychiatric expert Andreas Frei about her then boyfriend. Dr. Frei says to "Blick": "She described him so extreme that I thought he does not exist." At the beginning of the relationship are both fascinated by each other: "He was a gun nut. That attracted her, "says the psychiatrist.
Gabriel M. however, sees her as a "kind of Valkyrie," says Frei. Because contrary to the descriptions of the Asians acquaintances, he tends to be right wing. "She met the ideals of a blonde Aryan beauty, which matched his Nazi ideology," says Frei.
In spring of 1997, they fly to Australia with a tour group - for hunting rabbits. As skilled marksmen they kill the animals and skin then. Caroline H. has already killed two women. Gabriel M. has already staged a bomb attack in Canada.
"The two of thought to have found soul mates," says psychiatrist Frei. Caroline H. appreciated that he did not put her femininity at the center. Because the park-killer does not want to be a woman. "Sexuality certainly played no major role in their relationship."
Then begins Caroline H. distance herself from her boyfriend. "She saw herself as a leftist-terrorist and suddenly realized that she is together a far-right extremist." After a year they separate.
Frei: ". Both lived in their own quirky world for a long time without realizing it not to be the same". In 1998, a year after the end of their relationship and shortly after an attempted murder of a third woman, Caroline H. enters a psychiatric clinic. There, she admits the arson, later the murders.
Gabriel M. finds out about it. H.R. Giger: "He told me then that it could not imagine her carrying out such an act." The artist cannot believe that his friend has anything to do with the Rütli bomb: "On 1 August he lit fireworks in my garden . He behaved normally. As usual. "
