Sabine H.

So, there's this 39-year old woman being referred to as "Sabine H." in Germany who's accused of killing her 9 babies. This story abounds with idiocies, so bear with me. First of all, the babies are believed to have been killed between 1988 and 1999, an eleven year period. Using some quick math, that's a child every 1.1 years, or about four months between pregnancies.

But get this: she was unable to tell investigators anything about either the births or the deaths of the children.

"Regarding the dead children three to nine, she said she couldn't remember how the killings took place because when the birth contractions began, she had drunk a considerable amount of alcohol," Bargenda said.

But the saddest part is yet to come. Of the four children Sabine has decided not yet to kill, one is only 18 months old. This is quite obviously a case of a woman who desperately needed some reproductive education. Since she failed to receive it, the responsibility of her children fall on the shoulders of the community.

One can only hope that the three living children between the ages of 18 and 20 will do more than complete the cycle started by their parents.

I hate the news.

NB: What should happen to the mother? See the post below....
