How a hologram is used in Amsterdam’s red light district to try to solve a 2009 murder

And hologram of a sex worker stalking Amsterdam’s red light district.

Dressed in short gray shorts, a leopard-print bra and showing a tattoo that snakes across her stomach and chest, the three-dimensional computer-generated image moves behind the window seeking to attract the attention of passers-by.

He leans forward, breathes on the glass, and writes the word “help.”

The hologram is designed to represent Bernadette “Betty” Szabo, a 19-year-old Hungarian woman who was murdered stabbed months after giving birth in 2009.

After 15 years the police still cannot solve the case.

Therefore, researchers have chosen to use this innovative technology for the first time.

The image of the murdered teenager is projected from behind a window, along with those of hundreds of young people who continue to make a living in the sex industry.

Researchers hope the hologram will help reactivate memories and draw attention about the murder.

Betty’s killer has managed to evade justice, but Detective Anne Dreijer-Heemskerk is determined to solve the case.

“A young woman, only 19 years old, had her life taken from her in a very horrible way,” he said.

According to the detective, Szabo had a difficult life, full of adversity and resilience.

She had moved to Amsterdam at age 18 and became pregnant shortly after.

She worked throughout her pregnancy and even shortly after the birth of his son.

In the early hours of February 19, 2009, two sex workers went to visit the teenage mother during a break between clients, because they realized that the music she usually played was not playing.

When they entered the brothel, which consisted of a small room with a plastic-covered bed, a dresser, and a sink, they found the body of Betty Szabo.

Suspicions about the perpetrator of the murder

She was murdered three months after giving birth, the victim of a savage knife attack.

Her baby was sent to a foster home and he never got to know his mothera fact that motivates the detectives.

Although police immediately launched an investigation into the murder, They never found the author.

They reviewed security camera footage and questioned potential witnesses.

Most of the people in Amsterdam’s red light district staring at the scantily clad women behind the red neon windows are tourists.

The police suspect that the perpetrator of the attack is a foreigner.

Exposed to even greater danger

They are now urging people who visited Amsterdam to remember the event, and are offering a reward of 30,000 euros ($32,000) to encourage witnesses to come forward.

There is currently a controversial plan to move the famous brothels from Amsterdam’s red light district to an “erotic zone” on the outskirts of the city.

But Betty Szabo’s hologram serves as a poignant reminder of the vulnerability of sex workers in an area that, despite various security measures, still dangerous.

Sex workers have expressed concern that removing them from public view could expose them to even greater danger.

The fact that such a violent crime could occur in one of the busiest night spots in the Netherlands without witnesses coming forward continues to baffle investigators.

In the historic red-light district where she once lived and worked, the teenage sex worker’s digital presence reminds passersby that her case is still unsolved.
