Emmerinus Augustinus Jansen (1958-1973)∼On January 18th 1929 four policemen went to meet Aaltje Wobbes - van der Tuin who had recently moved in with IJje Wijkstra, who had lived by himself in the small village named Doezum in the south-western part of the province Groningen.
Aaltje's husband was imprisoned for theft. She took all her assets with her,
except her six under aged children, which was a criminal offense.
Within the hour of their arrival the policemen Hermannus Hoving, Jan Werkman, Aldert Meijer & Mient van der Molen lay dead in the snow with their throats slit.
Wijkstra had set his house on fire and fled the scene but was arrested later on that day.
Upon being asked why he did it, he replied 'they provoked me.'
This murder caused a lot of commotion.∼
