DON'T READ THIS IF YOU ARE PREGNANT, A RECENT MOTHER OR EASILY DISTRESSED. DO NOT READ THIS IF YOU ARE UNABLE TO CONCEIVE OR UNDERGOING FERTILIZATION PROCEEDURES.
A German woman, mother of three adult children and one younger child has gone on trial this week accused of killing her last nine children at birth over a period of twelve years. I'm not prepared to go into the means she used to dispose of the children, it is irrelevent to the act.
The woman, during this period, was in business, regularly travel, from what I understand, in Germany and overseas, indeed one of the children was born, and died, outside Germany.
Her husband, who has left her following her arrest says 'I didn't know she was pregnant'. None of her work colleagues seemed to know she was pregnant. She never saw a doctor during any of these pregnancies. She says she killed the babies because her husband didn't want more children.
She cannot be charged with murder as there is no way of telling if the infants were born alive or dead, she has been charged with concealing births and failing to declare deaths and faces a maximum of fifteen years in prison.
I wrote a note somewhere on a thread recently about truth being stranger than fiction. Not only do I find this horror story unbelievable, on the part of the wife, the husband and her colleagues, I also cannot imagine an author inventing such a plot.
There is no point in trying to understand this turn of affairs - it is bizarre, disgusting and morally reprehensible beyond belief - I personally feel all of them she be charged with something, including the airline that flew a nine month pregnant woman. I've heard of isolated cases where a single pregnancy has gone unnoticed - but nine in twelve years?
My sincere apology if this post has upset anyone - it was not the intention.
