they all belong in prison
Indeed.. It's hard to imagine that they didn't know a woman was being kept prisoner there for several years.
I remember when, years ago, someone in PL said to me "ooh, aren't there a lot of serial killers in England". In fact, he'd been watching a British TV documentary about them on Discovery Channel, dubbed into Polish. I asked about Polish serial killers and the daft reply was: "it isn't a Polish tradition". Nor of course are mobile phones, hamburgers or air fryers yet there are plenty enough in PL.
Plus, the police in the U.K. are fairly good with major crimes and that can't be said about the police in Poland. And of course the U.K. is far more urban which makes it harder to get away with things.
Then, a few years later, there was an exhibition at the tram stop by DW Centralny in Warsaw of photos of missing persons. So manymof the, were blonde teenage girls from the same parts of the countryside who went missing on their way home from school. I wonder if anyone in the police joined the dots or just filed it away and did nothing. When a close friend went missing, Fundacja Itaka put posters on the metro however it turned out he'd been lying in a morgue for months after being run over and despite being reported missing right away in the same town as he was found, he'd just been left there.
The FBI once estimated that there were 40 serial killers operating in the U.S. at any one time. If you math that down by population size, that suggests Poland has 4 or 5 who are killing people right now.
