This is 17-year-old Lisa Holm. And on a quiet summer's evening, she suddenly
0:05
disappeared from a cafe in Blumbberg, Sweden. What followed was one of the largest search operations in Swedish
0:12
history. Hundreds of volunteers, helicopters, and police officers secured the countryside, all hoping to find her
0:19
alive. However, as the hours turned into days and ominous clues began to surface,
0:25
officers began to worry. And sadly, after 5 days of searching, they had
0:30
their answer. Found deep inside a nearby farm, investigators discovered what they
0:35
called the milking room. A scene that was so disturbing and grotesque that many of the officers required therapy.
0:43
So, what happened to Lisa Holm? What precisely is the milking room? And who
0:48
was to blame for all of this revolting behavior? Because there really is no better word
0:54
to describe Lisa's killer. He was absolutely revolting. And the more that I look into this case, the more I
1:00
realize that Lisa's final moments must have been nothing short of soul destroying. This genuinely has to be one
1:06
of the most horrifying cases that I've covered. In fact, it was so bad that many of the detectives on this case
1:12
needed therapy afterwards. I mean, even just the nickname, the milking room, leaves shivers down my spine. Welcome,
1:18
or welcome back to Coffee House Crime, folks. My name is Adrian and today we're looking at one of Sweden's most
1:24
horrifying cases. By the way, did you know that Coffee House crime is only run by me and two good friends and of
1:31
course, Nero. But there are no corporations here, no Netflix studios, and no AI slop. So, if you do support

1:43
out the way, let's begin this story because honestly, it is sincerely tragic. So, on that note, please grab
1:50
yourself a coffee and let's caffeinate while we investigate. This is the case of Lisa Holm.
2:06
It was a gentle Sunday evening of June 2015, and the small Swedish village of Blumbberg was busy being its usual self,
2:14
that being charming, quiet, and picturesque. Now, Blumberg is a place where life moves slowly and nothing bad
2:20
ever happens because, well, quite frankly, it doesn't have the population for it. Think of gentle hills, flat
2:26
farmland, clusters of trees, and the occasional farmhouse, all enclaved in a very Nordic setting. And unfortunately,
2:34
for all of the wrong reasons, I'm sure you'll become familiar with this area as we go through the video. Sweden is a
2:41
country that often ranks near the very top of most livable countries. And of course, the most important factors that
2:46
are taken into consideration here are housing, education, and good health care. It ranks near the very top for
2:52
global happiness, second in the world for healthcare, and sixth for overall quality of life. And with all of this in
2:59
mind, it really does make you think they might be on to something here. And it's true, because good health care changes
3:05
everything. Because no matter where you live, your quality of life depends heavily on your health. For example,
3:10
have you ever been in that moment where everything seems to be going smoothly? You're just going through your week. You've got exciting plans. And then all
3:17
of a sudden, boom, your body decides to just ruin everything. Whether it's a sudden flu, an infection, or a weird new
3:23
pain, it doesn't really matter. Suddenly, you're googling symptoms at 11:00 p.m. and convincing yourself that
3:29
you've got something dramatic. We've all been there before. However, instead of spiraling through a late night doom
3:35
scroll, let me tell you, there is a better way to handle that. And that's where today's paid partner, Zukdoc,
3:40
comes in. ZTO is a free website where you can search and compare highquality in-et network doctors. Choose the right
3:46

4:05
need to call doctor's offices or wait and hold either because Zukto lets you do everything online. Now, we've all
4:11
experienced the difference between an okay doctor and a great one. I remember recently seeing a doctor about a
4:16
shoulder injury that was making worse at the gym. And let's just say that this guy was straight out of a movie. If
4:21
you've seen Rocky, you'll know exactly what I'm talking about. But this guy jumped out of his chair and shouted, "Adrien,
4:27
Adrien, what are you doing? We need you to rest, reduce the inflammation, and see a
4:33
physio." Quite honestly, this guy was great because not only was he basically telling me exactly why all of this was
4:38
happening, but he was also treating me like a good friend. And he basically just made the entire experience so much
4:44
better, which is exactly what I want in a doctor every time. And not only do you get this with Zokto, but when you find
4:50

too. Thank you, Zdoc, for sponsoring today's video. Now, let's get straight back to this case.
5:25
[Music] It was on June the 7th, 2015 that
5:31
17-year-old Lisa Holm was finishing her shift at a local countryside cafe near the foot of Kakula, a beautiful hill
5:38
that is framed by Two Lakes. Lisa Holm was known to be bright, dependable, and
5:43
mature beyond her age. In fact, both of her parents, who now trusted her completely, felt comfortable enough to
5:50
let her work at the cafe and even commute home alone. She had started her job at this cafe only a few weeks prior.
5:57
And although her parents had driven her back and forth each week, as she worked on weekends, today was the day that she
6:03
could finally drive home alone on her new moped. It was around 6:23 p.m. and
6:09
just as the sun set over the hills that Lisa sent a text message to her father. She said that she was basically finished
6:15
locking up the cafe and she would be on her way home shortly. Now, this drive would usually take around half an hour,
6:21
and it's one that she'd done countless times before. And although most of them were with her parents, she easily knew
6:27
the way back home alone. This road wound through countless forests and farmlands, and in general was considered to be
6:33
extremely safe. It was peaceful here. And to be honest with you, the only threat you really had was a rogue
6:40
Swedish meatball rolling down the hill. However, that evening, it was different
6:45
because Lisa would never make it back home.
6:50
As those minutes turned into hours, concern gave way to dread. And by 8:00,
6:56
her father could no longer wait. That is when he jumped into his car and drove towards the cafe, scanning the empty
7:03
roads for any sign of his daughter. When he arrived, he initially felt relieved, but only moments later, his heart sank
7:11
again. Although Lisa's moped was still there, parked neatly by the cafe. After
7:16
inspecting the moped, he realized that the keys were still hanging loosely from the ignition. And as for her bag, well,
7:24
that was right next to the bike itself. To make things even more worrying, not
7:29
only was her helmet gone, but the cafe that she worked at was dark, silent, and
7:35
empty. Lisa's father called out her name. But despite his best efforts, there was no answer. Only the sound of
7:42
wind and the creek of old trees could be heard. and Lisa home. Well, she was
7:48
gone. Panicked and desperate, Lisa's father called the police at 9:47 p.m.
7:53
And within hours, a massive search operation was underway with neighbors, friends, and local volunteers all
8:00
traveling to the area to help find her. Flashlight beams swept far and wide across open fields, and all of the barns
8:07
in the nearby area were thoroughly checked. As for roads, they were closed off and everybody knew that Lisa was
8:14
missing. But despite the turnout, the first sweep revealed almost nothing at
8:19
all. There were no signs of a struggle, no clues, and no footprints. Absolutely
8:25
nothing. And with Lisa still missing, the investigators grew deeply unsettled.
8:30
And that is when they found their first subtle clue. Inside of an old barn, which was located next to the cafe and
8:37
across the road, police dogs caught wind of Lisa's scent. Now, the barn itself
8:42
was essentially abandoned and nobody worked here. It was primarily used to store random pieces of furniture, but
8:50
otherwise was just derelictked. And so, moving into the barn, police realized that it was cluttered and contained
8:56
random rubbish like old equipment, stacked wood, and dust all over the floorboards. But in the dirt, they found
9:03
something important. A single black glove that was later confirmed to belong to Lisa. As midnight came and went, the
9:11
situation escalated. In the space of only a few hours, the search party had grown into one of the largest operations
9:18
that the region had ever seen. More police officers arrived and the locals, they refused to sleep. Even people who
9:25
barely knew Lisa joined in on the search because things like this simply did not
9:30
happen in Bloomberg. By dawn, this quiet village had quite literally transformed.
9:36
Makeshift command posts were set up, maps were covered in notes, and radios were buzzing with updates, and the
9:42
community, close-knit as always, was in shock. A 17-year-old girl had vanished
9:48
in their safe little town. And as the sun rose over the fields of Bloomberg, one thing was becoming clear that the
9:55
fear and uncertainty that had gripped the village overnight was only going to get worse.
10:03
Now, with so much to unpack around this case, I'm going to take you through everything that followed step by step.
10:09
However, before we dive into the events that unfolded, we should first probably understand where all of this happened
10:15
and more importantly, who Lisa was. Lisa Holm grew up in Skoe, which is a quiet
10:22
town in western Sweden. And by the age of 17, she had earned a reputation for her reliability, her warmth, and her
10:29
quiet maturity. By the summer of 2015, Lisa had finally earned her first job,
10:35
and her shifts at the cafe was the first work that she had ever had. As a result,
10:40
and also as a way to get between home and work, her parents rewarded her with a moped. They believed in teaching her
10:47
sturdy values. Basically, if you work hard, you're rewarded well. Meanwhile,
10:52
her friends described her as the glad girl. Now, this is kind of half lost in translation between Swedish and English,
10:59
but it basically means that she was the one who always asked questions with curiosity and always stayed upbeat. She
11:06
also loved pop music, especially One Direction, which to be honest with you is probably the only crime that she had
11:12
ever committed. Lisa was grounded, polite, responsible, and always bright.
11:18
And on the day that she disappeared, her very reputation remained true. Those who worked with her that day said that she
11:25
was polite, curious, and in good spirits, basically behaving just like Lisa always would. However, now she was
11:33
missing. So, beginning with this map, you can see
11:38
that Lisa had a lot of distance to cover in order to get home with about 45 miles
11:44
between her and her family. However, with her moped still at the cafe, it is
11:49
safe to assume that she had run into trouble before even beginning her journey. As the sun rose over Monday
11:56
morning, the search for Lisa intensified with police, soldiers, and hundreds of volunteers scouring the entire
12:03
countryside on foot, horseback, and ATVs. Fields, ditches, forest groves,
12:08
and barns were all searched in widening circles, radiating out from the cafe.
12:13
Showing you a couple more of my maps here, but they initially began with a small search radius of only 300 m. With
12:21
such a relatively small area, they could throw in an intense level of effort to make sure that nothing was missed.
12:28
Spoiler alert, but whoops, they would miss a few things. And of course, over the next few days, this radius would
12:35
increase from 300 m to 10 km. As this radius expands, the amount of effort
12:40
they can put in per square meter, of course, diminishes. But for now, let's not jump ahead of ourselves. By June the
12:48
10th, an organization known as missing people joined the search party, bringing in dozens of trained team members and
12:54
specialized equipment. And then 2 days later, the first real clues began to
13:00
surface. It was along a dirt road and only a kilometer away from the cafe that
13:05
searchers found scattered belongings. A pink phone case and parts of a mobile phone were discovered and eventually
13:12
they were confirmed to belong to Lisa.
13:22
missing people. Soon after this and further along the
13:29
dirt road, they also found a torn receipt and a train ticket with Lisa's name clearly printed on it. And
13:35
unfortunately, the next day, even more appeared. A friend of Lisa's father was
13:40
driving past the cafe when he realized that the barn next door no longer had any police tape surrounding it. For
13:47
clarity, this is the same barn which is across the road from the cafe and the same barn that contained her glove. So,
13:54
with the barn no longer off limits, the neighbor decided to take a look inside. And while there, he found a pair of
14:01
pearl earrings glinting on the floor in the dust. He immediately knew that they belonged to Lisa. And soon enough, his
14:09
parents confirmed this. The following morning, Lisa's ID card and her house keys were found near a road leading
14:16
south. It's safe to say that the evidence left behind was both chaotic and spread all over the place. Kind of
14:22
like someone had deliberately tried to confuse her trail. By June the 11th, and that being 4 days after her
14:29
disappearance, the search zone had widened yet again, now encompassing all of the nearby farms and estates.
14:37
And trust me here, it was just about to get worse, much worse. Now, one of those
14:42
farms was Morp Farm and was basically a mile away from the cafe. It was quite
14:47
modest in size and there were signs of aging, too. And at the time, it was home to three migrants from the Baltics. One
14:55
thing I found quite interesting is that despite moving to the country multiple years prior, none of them could actually
15:00
speak Swedish, only Lithuanian and English. Otherwise, there was nothing remarkable about these folks. Anyway, it
15:08
was on June the 12th that volunteers started to sweep around the farm and then something strange happened. That is
15:14
when two of those migrants being a man and a woman approached the volunteers. They said that not only had police
15:20
officers already sweeped and searched the area, but that those volunteers should not waste their time. But the
15:26
thing is, not only did this urgency feel unhelpful, it quite literally felt defensive. And as for the man, they
15:33
could all tell that he was tense. In fact, not only did he urge the volunteers to leave as soon as possible,
15:39
but he also told them that if they didn't move on, he would contact the police. Now, thankfully, the search
15:45
party wouldn't back down. Instead, they politely told him to back off while they continued to search around the farm.
15:52
They couldn't tell why, but there was something about this place that felt rather uneasy. And as the search teams
15:58
pressed forward, none of them knew that within hours they would stumble upon a horrifying discovery that would
16:05
officially end their search. It's kind of ironic really, but if his goal was to
16:10
draw attention away from the property, well, the anxious man actually achieved quite the opposite. In fact, his
16:17
behavior unsettled the volunteers so much that they eventually called the police. Within minutes, officers arrived
16:24
on the scene, and with their heightened suspicions, they were prepared to search every inch of Morb Farm. Speaking about
16:31
the property for a moment, the farm itself was quite large and expansive. To
16:37
begin with, you had the main building where all of the migrants lived, and nearby you had two weathered barns,
16:43
which mostly held equipment. You could also find several wooded areas and towards the back of the property, a few
16:50
sheds which were scattered along the rural road. From this aerial shot, you can see exactly what I mean. The place
16:57
was expansive, and there were many spots for an item or even a body to go missing. But what once looked ordinary
17:04
now felt charged with unease. While officers were traveling towards Mtorp Farm, they realized that most of Lisa's
17:11
items, which had now been found, were actually on the way to the property. Through a little bit of research, I was
17:17
able to piece together the exact locations of these items. And as you can see here, it painted a very clear
17:24
direction in which way she was heading. And the fact that this farm was extremely close to the cafe, close
17:30
enough that you could see both locations by drone, it was deeply concerning. As daylight began to fade, police officers
17:37
methodically spread out across the grounds with their flashlights sweeping through the fields and eager to find
17:43
evidence. And sadly, it was there in the tall grass just outside of the shed that
17:49
searchers finally made a breakthrough. Hidden among the weeds and branches was a dark jacket, which later on would be
17:56
confirmed to belong to Lisa. underneath it. They also found her white moped helmet, which had been missing since the
18:03
night she had vanished. With this discovery, all efforts to find Lisa intensified around this property. As a
18:10
result, they sealed off the area and began to scour the home, barnsheds, and every square meter. And within half an
18:17
hour, there were multiple significant areas of interest. But before we go any further, let's start here on one of the
18:24
sheds. Detectives noticed that one of the small white sheds, which was found towards the back of the property, had
18:31
long grass which had been trampled leading up towards the door. This was odd because the shed itself looked like
18:37
a building that was never in use. But the grass would suggest otherwise. In response, they pried the door open. And
18:44
when inside, officers noticed the horrible smell of death, and they knew that this was an unmistakable scent.
18:52
Now, the shed itself consisted of two small rooms, that being a bedroom and a
18:57
locker room. Now, the smell seemed to be coming from one of those lockers. And so, one by one, they opened them. And
19:04
tragically, they eventually found what they had been looking for for all this time. Because crammed within that narrow
19:11
cabinet was Lisa's lifeless body. It appeared that she had been partially undressed and her mouth was sealed shut
19:18
with gray tape. And around her neck, officers spotted a knotted rope. Of course, this discovery was devastating.
19:25
After nearly a week of tireless searching, it had all come to an end with the worst outcome imaginable.
19:34
By nightfall, Morp Farm was swarming with detectives in white suits as they geared up to seal the area and search
19:42
every corner. While there, they collected fibers, fingerprints, footprints, and a whole lot more. We'll
19:48
go into those details in a while, but for now, let's just say that they did not walk away empty-handed. News of the
19:55
discovery spread fast. And of course, once the volunteers who had spent days
20:00
trying to find Lisa heard it, they all broke down in disbelief. I mean, from what I've seen and heard, even the most
20:06
seasoned of officers just stood there in disbelief, completely silent and with tears in their eyes. And overnight, the
20:14
village of Bloomberg had turned into a nightmare. Now, obviously, as soon as Lisa's body was found, basically
20:21
everyone turned their attention and suspicion towards those living on the farm. And I have to say, there was one
20:26
man that stood out in particular. That being the same man who tried to wave off all of the volunteers, and his name was
20:33
Narius Bolivichius, a 35-year-old man and a migrant from Lithuania. No
20:39
surprise, he lived in that farm, not only with his wife, but also his younger brother. And the following morning, all
20:45
three of them were arrested for questioning. Now, at first glance, Narius was definitely forgettable. He
20:51
was basically a quiet, broad-shouldered farm hand who mostly kept to himself. He
20:56
moved to Sweden a few years earlier, supposedly to chase honest work and a better life. And Naras settled down
21:03
quickly, too, living on Mtorp farm with his wife Ireina and his younger brother.
21:08
He was polite enough when spoken to, but never really quite part of the community
21:14
either. I mean, that's kind of obvious because he never bothered to try to learn the Swedish language. Now,
21:20
unfortunately for Nargis, when police searched his room, they uncovered a monster. His computer was packed full of
21:27
violent pornography, and his online history also painted a picture of obsession, control, and sexual
21:33
aggression. So, it was already not looking good for Naris. But when it came
21:38
to actually linking him to Lisa's crime, he actually made it extremely easy for officers. And I'm talking incredibly
21:46
easy because these details are not for the faint-hearted. We'll go into more of
21:51
this soon, but for now, let's just say that he left DNA from both exits. Lisa's
21:57
clothing also contained traces of Narius's DNA, too. Now, to reiterate,
22:03
she had been found partially undressed and bound with tape. And although the autopsy report confirmed that she had
22:10
not been sexually assaulted, everything else about the scene did suggest a sexual motive. Nuras's neighbors would
22:17
also share damning details, too. Because apparently some of them had even seen
22:22
his car near the cafe on the evening of her disappearance. And it's not simply that he was just driving by, but he was
22:30
quite literally idling and watching. In addition to this, a surveillance camera in a local gas station would also
22:36
capture him later that evening, likely after all were said and done. And psychologically speaking, Naris was the
22:44
textbook monster that was hiding in plain sight. He was supposedly a family man and a father and somebody whose life
22:52
looked ordinary from the outside, but inside he was a predator who was just
22:57
waiting for an opportunity. By the time that police sat him down in the interrogation room, they already knew
23:03
that he was her killer. By now, Naris was cornered by evidence, including DNA,
23:09
witness statements, and even his own arrogance. But despite this mountain of evidence against him, he still denied
23:17
everything.
23:23
crying at me. They're all upset by what you're saying.
23:30
From the moment that officers found Lisa's body, they worked with great caution to try to find out what
23:36
precisely happened to her. And piece by piece, all of the evidence pointed towards Nurious. I mean, just the DNA
23:43
alone told a story that no lie could cover up. Now, I find that every story that I cover seems to have at least one
23:50
extraordinary detail that just stands out from the rest. For example, last week it was all about Scott Collogji and
23:56
his mental health. And this week it's all about the crime scenes. So, let's talk about each and every room in this
24:03
investigation because when put together, they paint a horrifying story.
24:11
To begin with, detectives wanted to determine what precisely happened to Lisa. And in one of the farm's barns,
24:18
they unfortunately found their answer. One of the rooms in this barn, which had previously been used for storing cow's
24:24
milk, was covered in dust and grime. The entire place looked revolting and almost
24:30
as if it was straight out of a horror movie. But while they were in here, they noticed that one of the pipes looked
24:36
ominously free from dust and debris. And after taking a closer look, they realized that both the pipe and the
24:42
floor beneath it contained rope fragments. When analyzed and compared, they realized that the rope found around
24:49
Lisa's neck was the same kind found in this room, which by now detectives had
24:54
infamously called the milking room. With all of this in mind, detectives were now able to confirm that Lisa had sadly been
25:02
strangled right here in the milking room. And unfortunately, it doesn't stop there. In fact, this was just the
25:09
beginning. They also noticed that seaman was found in this room and on Lisa's clothing. And when this was compared to
25:16
Narius's DNA, they found a conclusive match. To add insult to injury, his
25:21
excuse came straight out of a delusionist's handbook. Nurious claimed that he'd simply relieved himself in the
25:28
barn on a totally separate occasion, which by the way is still extremely creepy because why would you do it here
25:34
in this room? His genetic fingerprints were found everywhere, too. They were on the rope used to strangle Lisa, on her
25:41
clothes, on the inside and outside of her garments, and around the barn. They would even find his blood on Lisa's
25:48
jacket, which therefore suggested that a struggle had taken place while she fought back.
25:54
And it gets even worse, believe it or not, because found just outside of the milking room was a huge pile of human
26:01
feces. And after sending it for analysis, it was confirmed to belong to Nargis. This led officers to believe
26:08
that just after murdering Lisa, Nurious was so excited about what he had just done that he literally defecated
26:14
himself. I mean, this has to be one of the most shameful moments in human history. Just imagine this for a moment.
26:21
Like, not only did you just murder someone, but in the very same minute, you also crapped your pants. That wasn't
26:27
it either. Because going back to the cafe, which was only a mile away, officers realized that Narius would
26:33
routinely break into the barn just across the road. And when they examined it more closely, they were in for a
26:39
surprise. Police officers soon realized that one of the small rooms found inside that barn had a clear line of sight
26:46
straight towards the cafe. And when they swept those four walls with the black light, what they found was deeply
26:53
unsettling. They noticed multiple stains which were spattered across the walls, and lab tests would later confirm what
27:00
everyone feared. Those splatters contained Norius's DNA. It appeared that he had been using that window and that
27:07
vantage point to watch Lisa and other women while gratifying himself in secret. At this point, there really is
27:14
no other way to put it. Nurious is one of the most revolting people that I've ever researched. Now, of course, as I've
27:21
already mentioned, Lisa's personal items, including her phone, phone case, keys, jacket, and helmet, all formed a
27:29
trail straight to Mtorp Farm, which is where Narius was staying. And when asked where he was between 6:30 and 7:30 on
27:36
the evening of her disappearance, Naris claimed that he was in his bedroom, either sleeping or calling his mother.
27:43
However, when police pulled his phone records, they noticed that his timing did not fit at all. His call came after
27:49
Lisa had already disappeared and several witnesses had even seen his car circling the cafe at around 7:00 p.m. And of
27:57
course, then there was his own behavior because Narius's pathetic attempt to wave volunteers away from the property
28:04
would only bring more suspicion instead. I mean, to be honest with you, I think he probably would have been caught
28:10
either way. However, he did absolutely make it easier for officers here. By now, the evidence against him was simply
28:17
overwhelming. He was a man who was now surrounded by his own rope, tape, semen,
28:22
blood, and lies. And maybe you would think that with this mountain of proof, he would finally confess that he was
28:28
guilty. But outrageously, not for Naris. Instead, he tried to claim that he was
28:34
innocent, but framed instead. So, anyway, moving to the legal proceedings of this case, because unfortunately, he
28:41
wouldn't make it easy for us. Narius's trial began in autumn of 2015, and from
28:46
the very first day of his trial, it was clear that this would be one of Sweden's most prolific cases. Reporters described
28:53
the atmosphere as suffocating, and Lisa's parents were forced to sit only meters away from Noris. By the way, when
29:01
he was led into the courtroom, both heavily guarded and wearing prisoners clothes, the entire room fell silent.
29:08
But even still, this man avoided all eye contact with Lisa's family, and his
29:13
expression was basically unreadable. He barely reacted to anything that was said during his entire trial, which of course
29:21
made him seem even more cold and detached than before. For many people, this would be the first time that anyone
29:27
fully understood what happened that night. And the timeline goes something like this. At around 6:23 p.m., Lisa was
29:35
locking up the cafe with two of her colleagues. She then texted her father to say that she would soon be on her
29:41
way. After locking up, her two colleagues then went to catch a bus on the front side of the cafe, while Lisa
29:47
herself headed to the back, which is where her moped was parked. This is why her colleagues never noticed what was
29:54
going on. And of course, she was intercepted by Nargis only a few moments
29:59
later. Evidence suggests that Narius, who had been lingering near the cafe for quite some time, watched her finish
30:05
work. And when she was ready to set off, he then likely stopped her to ask for directions to a nearby town. We actually
30:13
know this because he already tried to do the exact same thing with another woman only a few weeks prior. But after he
30:20
asked her to get inside of his vehicle, she grew scared and walked away. Now, Nargis probably claimed that he didn't
30:26
understand Swedish, and so he asked Lisa to put the details in on his vehicle's GPS. And of course, when she was inside
30:34
his car, that is when he likely incapacitated her. Investigators believe that he overpowered her, abducted her,
30:41
and then forced her into one of the outbuildings at Morp Farm, very likely being the milking room. When inside the
30:47
room, a violent struggle then began. Lisa desperately fought back, which of course then led to traces of his DNA
30:54
being found under her fingernails and his blood later found on her jacket. Nargis would eventually win the fight.
31:02
And when he did, he restrained her with rope and duct tape. After killing her, Naris then panicked, defecated himself,
31:09
and then gratified himself next to her before then placing her body inside a locker in the shed and then scattering
31:16
her belongings along the road to divert suspicion. With all of that said, it is kind of obvious how this trial would go.
31:23
But before we get to the verdict, let's first take a moment to laugh at his defense. You see, his defense team
31:29
claimed that apparently Naris was framed. They would even suggest that maybe even his wife or own brother could
31:36
have been involved. This is absolutely insane when you think about it because after a brief stint in custody, both of
31:43
them were cleared of any involvement. In fact, his brother would even admit that Nargis had begged him to create an
31:50
alibi, claiming that if he didn't, they would probably blame the poor old immigrant for a crime that he had never
31:56
committed. On November the 17th of 2015, the jury
32:03
finally came back with a verdict. They found Naris guilty of murder and as a
32:08
result, he was sentenced to life in prison. However, his story would unfortunately not end here. In fact, it
32:15
would get even worse before things got better. You see, prisons in Sweden aren't actually that bad at all. In
32:21
fact, I'll leave a few pictures for you here. As you can see, they basically look like a hotel. And these pictures,
32:28
by the way, they are the same place that Naria stayed in. They say that prisoners like Naras cost the taxpayer around $500
32:35
per day, which is just absolutely outrageous. And unfortunately, it gets
32:41
even worse. In early 2017, Narius applied to be transferred to Lithuania to serve the rest of his life sentence,
32:48
which on the surface makes no sense whatsoever because prisons in Lithuania suck compared to Sweden. But eventually
32:55
it all made sense because after being successfully transferred back to Lithuania, he then applied to have his
33:01
sentence reduced under Lithuanian law. And the thing is, he actually won.
33:07
Nargis was therefore re-sentenced to serve only 15 years for the murder of Lisa Holm. But thankfully, his story
33:14
would not end here either because not only would he eventually have his sentence reinstated back to life in
33:20
prison, but after months of abuse from other Lithuanian prisoners, he was eventually stabbed to death in his cell.
33:27
Apparently, he was being abused by other prisoners so often that he was always in and out of prison. And eventually, one
33:34
of them finished the job. Talk about U-turns, hey? Now, to be honest with you, I can't say I give a damn about
33:40
Naris, but my heart still hurts for Lisa. Her murder was a national tragedy,
33:45
and it sent shock waves far beyond Bloomberg. For those of you who don't know, Sweden is a nation that prides
33:51
itself on safety and community. And now, it was suddenly confronted with the horror that they could simply not
33:58
believe. Throughout the course of finding Lisa, over 900 volunteers had joined. And in the end, their hopes and
34:06
efforts would ultimately be shattered. In Bloomberg, life has never quite been
34:11
the same. Parents have grown more cautious. The cafe has become a place of sorrow. And the village has struggled to
34:18
repair its reputation. Yet, from tragedy came solidarity. Throughout this nightmare, the missing people
34:25
organization gained national recognition and as a result has inspired thousands
34:30
to volunteer. No surprise, Lisa's funeral, which happened on July the 7th,
34:35
2015, was far too large for her church to accommodate. Over 130 people filled
34:41
the church, and there were hundreds upon hundreds more outside that were listening in through loudspeakers.
34:48
During this funeral, friends described her as kind, creative, and full of dreams. A girl who loved horses and
34:54
baking and hoped to one day study architecture here in Australia. In her honor, a cherry blossom tree was planted
35:01
near the cafe, and every spring, its bloom reminds locals of her.
35:09
I think this is one of those stories where quite simply, people will never get over this tragedy. It was absolutely
35:15
horrific what happened to Lisa, and I think Bloomberg will always carry that scar. I think it's also tragic that this
35:21
day was quite literally her first ever time driving home alone. I mean, it's just a story that has the darkest of
35:28
details and the most horrifying of coincidences. So, what are your thoughts on this case? To begin with, what do you
35:34
think about Lisa driving home alone? And secondly, what do you think about Narius's sentence and then re-sentence
35:41
and then re-reent? I find that was quite a wild U-turn towards the end there. As always, please
