Was there a tradition of HUMAN SACRIFICE in Neolithic Europe?

"The murder of sacrificial victims by "incaprettamento" — tying their neck to their legs bent behind their back, so that they effectively strangled themselves — seems to have been a tradition across much of Neolithic Europe, with a new study identifying more than a dozen such murders over more than 2,000 years."

Or does it?

The Prehistory Guys investigate reports of a prehistoric murder mystery.
