Description
A documentary series about Göran Lindberg, a former policeman, who was involved in a sex scandal.
It all began with a dead millionaire. As the police began digging into the potential homicide, it set off an investigation that would break up a prostitution ring of young women – some of them children – and sadistic male buyers. Among the men on the list was one of Sweden’s highest-ranking police chiefs: Göran Lindberg, also known as “Kapten Klänning” – or “Captain Skirt.”
The police officers who worked the case tell the whole story from the initial homicide to the dramatic efforts leading up to Lindberg’s arrest. The investigation into Göran Lindberg was immediately classified and confined to a small task force, whose members were the only ones in Sweden that knew Lindberg was a suspect. For months, they kept Lindberg under surveillance, tracking his increasingly manic and violent sexual transactions.
The investigation into the Lindberg case is filled with nail-biting suspense, with the investigators constantly battling how much crime they needed to let Lindberg commit in order for them to gather enough evidence to put him behind bars. It is a unique and intriguing story about one of Swedish police’s largest probes into one of their own.
