The calm of Christmas Day turns to terror in Boden when a 57-year-old woman is stabbed to death in her home and her two teenage daughters are seriously injured. When the police arrive at the scene, the suspected perpetrator is shot dead. The case later sparks a major debate about compulsory psychiatric care and risk assessments. Leif GW Persson examines the case and the aftermath.
