  • Ein angeblicher Kannibale vor dem Schwur - gericht - der berüchtigte Fall Bratuscha zu Beginn des 20. Jahrhunderts
    Studen, Andrej, 1963-2022
    The paper deals with a case of supposed cannibalism in Lower Styria in 1901. The winegrower Franz Bratuscha confessed to have manually strangled his daughter Johanna, to have dismembered her body ... with the help of his wife Maria and to have burnt it in a stove. He claimed to have cut off pieces of flesh from the thigh, fried them and ate them. The court of assize sentenced him to death and his wife to three years of hard labour. In August 1901, the Emperor pardoned Bratuscha, and the Highest Court converted the sentence to life imprisonment. In 1903, the case took a sensational turn when a thief was caught at Rudolfswert (Novo mesto) who was found to be Bratuscha%s daughter. This caused a legal scandal as it turned out that the spouses had been unjustly convicted of the murder of their daughter after the father%s fictitious confession to have eaten the daughter%s flesh. If Bratuscha had been executed, the miscarriage of justice would even have resulted in judicial murder. Bratuscha had first been declared mentally normal by the medical experts, but in 1903 psychiatrists declared him to be in a constant state of mental disturbance and that the alleged crime was all the product of his imagination, also because he liked reading books about cannibals. The Bratuscha case attracted a great deal of attention, especially because of the supposed cannibalism, and was also politically exploited in view of ethnic tensions between Slovenes and Germans in Lower Styria
