The policeman phoned for an ambulance, and Hans Krantzer was taken to the lunatic asylum for observation If he could see murders that never took place and describe persons he never saw, he was obviously suffering from mental derangement.
A week later a married couple came to see the flat. They were sent by a local estate agent. For a fleeting moment it seemed to the housekeeper as if the couple looked exactly' like. the beautiful young woman and the middle-aged man described by the crazy Hans Krantzer. Even the dress of the woman tallied with the description. But Krantzer was a lunatic and the housekeeper dismissed the thought.
The couple took the flat. Three months later the housekeeper was fold by tenants that they had heard a piercing scream coming from a flat on the fourth floor. That was the flat which the married couple had taken. The housekeeper rushed up and with the aid of the tenants broke down the door. In the room. the windows of which faced Krantzer's former diggings, he found the young woman stabbed to death. The husband was standing in the room in a dazed condition. He did not attempt to resist arrest. Later at police headquarters he confessed that he had murdered his wife in a fif of jealousy.
Every detail of the murder was carried out exactly as Hans Krantzer had foreseen it just over three months before. A committee of medical men is now trying to secure the release of Krantzer from the lunatic asylum in order to submit him to a psychological examination. Was his foresight of the murder ihe evidence of unusual psychic powers? Scientists so far can offer no explanation.
