I've never understood how people can be talked into killing someone. If I'm ever asked anything remotely close, I'm going straight to the police while the person is still alive.

Not only did she have her husband killed but she had no love at all for her five children. Five children orphaned by a selfish mother who birthed them then deserted them thousands and thousands of miles from home.

Four things: 1. This is a tragedy. 2. Justice has been served. 3. She is an incredibly selfish person. 4. I feel for the children. All five of them. I wish them well. They are going to need it.
