Eva Rausing and Hans Rausing before drugs consumed them
American heiress Eva Rausing took a secret with her to an untimely
grave, after police discovered her dead, decomposing body under a pile of
clothes and garbage bags at her mansion in London, England. Her husband,
multi-billionaire Swedish Tetra Pak heir, Hans Rausing, was arrested and
given a suspended sentence, regarding the improper burial. He has also been
disinherited by his family. The couple were drug addicts, who met in rehab
and married shortly after.
The Metropolitan Police in London, England have uncovered emails on Eva
Rausing’s computer, which make mention of the 1986 assassination of
former Swedish Prime Minister Olof Palme, who was gunned down one night on
his way home in Stockholm, Sweden.

a terrible toll on them
Rausing sent an explosive email to journalist Gunnar Wall in June of
2011, stating she knows who killed Palme and is scared he might come after
her. She described the killer as a businessman and stated she knows where
the murder weapon is hidden. The Met Police sent the emails authored by
Rausing to Swedish authorities.
I’m going to state what many of you are thinking - did Rausing die of
a drug overdose or was she killed because she knew the identity of Palme’s
killer. Another secret Rausing has taken to the grave with her, in what was
a tragic end to a woman that could have done so much more in life, had she
been able to successfully beat her addictions.
