By a canal in Amsterdam's red-light district, one of the "window women" is actually a hologram which Dutch police hope will help solve the gruesome murder of a sex worker in 2009.
Peering through a frame out onto passers-by, a human-sized likeness of Bernadett "Betty" Szabo -- in skimpy shorts and a leopard-print bra, a dragon tattoo covering much of her torso -- taps the pane and fogs the glass with her breath.
The word "HELP" appears, chillingly, on the screen.https://www.cbsnews.com/news/hologra...m-betty-szabo/Aged only 19, Hungarian-born Betty was stabbed multiple times in her brothel room in the centuries-old red-light district, known as De Wallen, just months after giving birth to a baby boy.
Despite a large-scale police probe, the case went cold. During a review, however, police found "promising clues" and decided to reopen the investigation, Brink said.
They hope the likeness of Betty, created with 3D visualization technology, will jolt the memories of people who may have information about her murder.
