Bizarre Shit in Austria

42
I just read an article about the children. Some really bizarre facts:

-They have their own way of communicating to each other by producing certain sounds, like "ggrr...ggrrr..."

-When two of them (18 and 19 years old) saw the moon for the first time they got totally excited, pointing at it, sqeaking and whispering in each others ears...

- The youngest boy, Felix, asked the police officer who opened the dungeon: "Are you The Lord?"


Man, that´s scary...

That's what I'm also struggling with when I think about this... no matter how hidden or soundproofed or whatever that the basement dungeon was... I mean apparently he must have spent significant time down there whether doing horrible things, or doing routine basics like bringing them food, etc.

"OK, wife, I'm going to go work in the basement now - don't come down, OK?"

"Uh, OK husband." (thinks to self "Boy I guess that husband of mine sure likes to tinker for hours at his workbench down there... a lot")

It kind of blows my mind to think of 24 years worth of conversations like that, and she had no clue anything was fishy?


BBC or somewhere wrote:Investigators are convinced that Fritzl had operated alone. Leopold Etz, the chief investigator for the Lower Austria province, said yesterday that DNA tests confirmed that no man other than Fritzl had entered the soundproof cellar rooms.


I buy her story. I don't think a secret dungeon stays secret for twenty-four years if you tell someone; I think her behaviour now would betray her if she'd known, and the cops don't suspect her worth a dime.
