Roger Andermatt (born 1969), known as The Death-Keeper of Lucerne, is a Swiss serial killer.
With 22 claimed victims between 1995 and 2001, he is the most prolific serial killer in Swiss criminal history.
Thus, the court's punishment was above the prosecutor's request, and, in particular, did not follow the line of defense (killing out of sympathy).
The Lucerne High Court convicted Andermatt but only in seven murder cases.
