    1. @Walter B. Okay but among those who speak English, the abdominal region right down to the belt line is casually referred to as the stomach. Follow me for more tips on basic social interaction

    2. @James Cross “… among those who speak English” 😂. A born-and-raised-in-Ontario Anglophone here, fella. “… among those who speak English” 😂😂😂

    1. No. Someone who was brain damaged from all of the beatings she took and mentally disturbed by all of the sexual molestation she received. Obviously, not someone who could have ever been released back into society, but not someone who was in her right mind or who should have been executed. But you get to judge….

  1. She was a perfect example of a disturbed childhood and victim raised in an environment of ungodniless and perverted society.
    Guard and love your child from an early age before it is too late.

    1. This troubled past does not excuse her murderous actions, nor lessen the severity, even though they may have led towards that end. You are confusing the two very different circumstances in your quest for a sympathetic social justice outcome.
      Your argument only makes society weak and more prone to violence because under your rules we are willing to excuse it because of someone’s past.

    2. @Daniel M P Maybe you should read into what she did………… I have zero compassion for this monstrous woman.

    3. @James Cross how many times do I have to say that I am not justifying her macabre evil act? All I am saying is to love and protect our children from this evil decaying world.

    4. @Daniel M P I don’t disagree with that. But at some point ones past becomes irrelevant in the face of their crimes. I leave that for the eggheads

  2. The same case was in India in one of the riots, and the criminal who cut the belly of the pregnant woman and pulled out the baby by stabbing him/her, still lives or lived freely. Idk whether the criminal is alove or not but I do know he wasn’t punished.

  3. Holy moly! If I saw her on the street, I would not guess her to be a psycho. We can never know by a person’s looks.
