Police officers wearing gas masks escorting Jan-Erik Olsson (C) in handcuffs after a hostage drama at the Kreditbanken bank on Norrmalmstorg square in Stockholm, on August 23, 1973

Police officers wearing gas masks escorting Jan-Erik Olsson (C) in handcuffs after a hostage drama at the Kreditbanken bank on Norrmalmstorg square in Stockholm, on August 23, 1973

Clothes worn by Nils Svantesson Sture, Erik Svantesson Sture and Svante Sture at the time of their murders, 24 May 1567

Sture Murders showcase what happens when absolute power is mixed with paranoia and unchecked mental illness. It was an absolute collapse of royal restraint.
