It is an interesting article Paul, I don't know what to think about her really, the only thing we know for sure is that a one-day old baby died/was killed. If she did do it I don't feel much sympathy.

Take alook at this site about people who were hanged for their crimes. On the left hand side where this is a list of women who were hanged there is a section on baby farmers. it really is interesting if a bit scary http://www.richard.clark32.btinternet(.)co(.)uk/contents.html
