Source: Cold Case: de moord op Sjaak Gerwig (18) uit UtrechtThat evening in March, Sjaak walked from his home on Rijnlaan in the Rivierenwijk neighborhood to visit his girlfriend further down the street on Baarsstraat. He was supposed to go home afterward, but he never arrived. He was presumably killed that same evening. On April 2nd, he was found dead near Laagraven in the water between Utrecht and Houten. Sjaak's death appeared to have been violent; he had been struck repeatedly on the head with a heavy object.

The police stated that they were "in close contact" with him about this. But what the television investigator may have discovered about the case will never be known. Two days before the broadcast, the fatal shots were fired at him on Lange Leidsedwarsstraat in Amsterdam.
