Unlocked & (maybe) unsolved: The murder of Inge Lotz
Manage episode 370701588 series 3491097
Back in 2005 the Shiraz complex in Stellenbosch had just been completed and the first set of tenants moved in, including 22-year-old student Inge Lotz. Inge was whip-smart, studying mathematics and stats at the University of Stellenbosch. She was a dedicated student who liked to stick to a schedule for her academic work, so when she wasn’t answering her phone on the night of 16 March 2005, her mom assumed she was head down in a book. Inge’s boyfriend Fred van der Vyver, however, was not as convinced. He’d been trying to reach Inge for hours. He calls a friend who lived nearby and sent him to check things out at Shiraz. There he'd find the savagely attacked body of Inge, kicking off a case that remains perplexing and unsolved today.
