editThere is also another Zdzisław Marchwicki (1841 - 1912), whom PSB recognizes as 'powstaniec 1863; emigrant; dyrektor banku'.--Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus Talk 07:49, 4 March 2006 (UTC)
Serial killer or victim of miscarriage of justice?
edit
Some time ago I saw a documentary about him, including fragments of his trial. I remember a dialog on a courtroom:
Witness: Some man followed me.
Prosecutor: Was it the accused?
Witness: I don't know, there was a fog.
Prosecutor: But you are sure that it wasn't the accused?
Witness: Not.
There were also statements of Marchwicki. It was evident, that he had said what they wanted to hear. Because he knew that he would be found guilty anyway.
That was very scary and sad. Discussion on Polish Wiki also indicates that he was probably innocent.
Therefore I think that the sentence 'Zdzisław Marchwicki (...) called the "Zagłębie vampire", was a Polish serial killer.' is inapt. Categories 'Polish serial killers' and 'Executed serial killers' should also be removed. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 83.31.237.187 (talk) 14:03, 4 March 2010 (UTC)

Changes
editI removed the statement that Marchwicki was a gypsy, because there is no mention in the Polish article.
I have also removed the statement that there was widespread doubt about Marchwicki's conviction because it is based on allegations (especially that he didn't behave like a regular serial killer in the courtroom.) Maikel (talk) 13:05, 4 March 2018 (UTC)
