Eriksson Twins Pt 1: Folie a Deux or Government Cover Up?

**Discussion begins at 5:00**
Ursula and Sabina Eriksson were identical twin sisters born in Sweden in 1967. They were the youngest of 4 children, and had an uneventful, happy childhood without any evidence of mental health issues or substance abuse. Eventually, Ursula moved to the US, and Sabina moved to Ireland where she was living with her partner and two children in 2008. On Friday, May 16, Ursula went to visit her sister in Ireland. Later that day, they are seen running into traffic on the M6, and motorway cops are sent to check on them. The girls were initially calm, on the side of the road chatting with cops, when suddenly, Ursula, bolted into the street, running into the side of a truck traveling 90 km/hr and crushing her legs. While officers tended to Ursula, Sabina bolted into the motorway where she was promptly hit by a car. She remained unconscious for 15 minutes, before waking up combative and fighting with police. The girls were shouting at each other “I recognize you, you aren’t real” and “they’re going to steal your organs”. Both sisters were taken to the hospital for evaluation and treatment. Ursula was taken to surgery and spent months convalescing in the hospital. Toxicology screens were negative for drugs and alcohol. Sabina, however, was released after evaluation and arrested for trespassing and assault on a police officer. At booking, she denied any medical history, psychiatric history, or suicidal ideations. While there, she was pleasant and joking with the officers. She stated “We say in Sweden, that an accident rarely comes alone. Usually at least one follows, maybe two.” On May 19, she pleads guilty to her charges for assaulting the police officer and trespassing on the motorway, and was sentenced to 1 day in jail (or time served).

She is released from jail, and meets Glenn Hollinshead, who offers her a place to stay and to help find her sister. The next day, he goes next door to ask his neighbor for some tea. Glenn goes back into his house, and less than a minute later he comes out bleeding and saying “she stabbed me, she stabbed me” before dying. Sabina eventually pleads guilty and is sentenced to 5 years in prison. The defense claimed that she was a victim of folie-a-deux, or a madness shared by two. They claimed that Ursula was the primary psychiatric sufferer, and Sabina only acted as she did because of the shared psychosis. Is this an unfortunate case of mental illness? Or were the twins involved in military experimentation, victims of mind control, involved in a drug trafficking scheme, or being observed by the police? Is there more to the story?
