abstract="The comprehensive casuistry, which is based on the forensic examination by the author illustrates a family-drama, in which a 19-year-old girl killed her alcohol and tablet dependent mother in multiple ways and later, with the help of the three years younger sister plastered the body in a sarcophagus inside the apartment. The paper will delineate the life-circumstances, the family- and the psychodynamic of the criminal act. Beside a review of the literature concerning matricide by the daughter, the dynamic aspect of the matricide will be discussed on the basis of the greek tragedies Elektra (Sophokles) and Medea (Euripides). The victim is compared with the part of Medea, the fate of the daughter with the fate of Elektra.<p /> <p>Language: de</p>",
