Phantom Of Heilbronn - Biography
The Phantom of Heilbronn, often alternatively referred to as the "Woman Without a Face", was a hypothesized unknown female serial killer whose existence was inferred from DNA evidence found at numerous crime scenes in Austria, France and Germany from 1993 to 2009. The six murders among these included that of a female police officer, Michéle Kiesewetter, in Heilbronn, Germany on 25 April 2007.The only connection between the crimes was DNA, which had been recovered from 40 (latest in March 2009) crime scenes, of numerous different types of crimes ranging from murders to burglaries. In late March 2009, investigators concluded that the "Phantom" criminal did not exist, and the DNA recovered at the crime scenes had already been present on the cotton swabs used for collecting DNA samples.[citation needed]The events were fictionalized in the 6th season episode, "Dead Reckoning," of CSI: NY.
