Once
again time has swung around to the day where people are falling over themselves
to give praise to the baby factories that mass produced them. Once more we have
people gibbering on about the sacrifices mothers have to give for the sake of their
children, as if abortion and adoption did not exist. Once more we have
sickening displays of coke addled celebrities and scumbag politicians squirting
crocodile tears over the parts attached to the vaginas that shunted them out.
As I've done before,
I’m here to remind you that not all mothers are cast from the same mold. That
they aren’t all dripping fonts of kindness and warmth. That some of them are
the worst examples of human beings ever to exist. Enjoy!

| Belle Guinness and murdered children |
Belle Guinness:
Lady Bluebeard. Born Brynhild Paulsdatter Størseth in 1859, she was a Norwegian
serial killer that emigrated to the United States, changed her name to Belle,
and married Mads Ditlev Anton Sorenson. The pair opened a store, which burned
down and the insurance company paid up. Her husband and two children (of four) died
shortly afterwards- the doctor thought that it might be strychnine poisoning.
Of course they were insured. She married again, to Peter Guinness, and moved to
LaPorte, Indiana to start a farm. Peter soon died when a sausage grinder
accidently fell on his head. Once again the insurance paid up, but not without
some close scrutiny. For awhile Belle quit the insurance fraud. That’s when the
suitors started. Belle placed lonely hearts ads in newspapers all across the
country proclaiming to be looking for love. What she really wanted was a fast
payday. They would write back and forth, Belle flirting with them until she
could ascertain that the mark had money, then invite him to her farm. One night
at her farm would be their last. An estimated thirty to forty men disappeared,
only one got away. Eventually suspicion grew and she decided to make a break.
She killed a homeless drifter to use as a substitute for her own body and
burned down the farm with her children, now numbering three, sleeping in it.
She pinned it on a retarded assistant that she occasionally have sex with. She
was never caught.
Mary Ann Cotton: The Dark Angel. Born in the North of English, Mary Ann Cotton was
another of those female serial killers that whacked people to collect on their
insurance. She made her way through three (of four) husbands, eleven (of
thirteen) children, and one lover before getting caught. Everyone around this
woman kept dying of gastric bypass illnesses. Now while those were common in
her age, her score was well above the average. After each death, and once the
insurance paid out, she moved to a new city and started the process all over
again. The only one to survive was her third husband who, suspicious of her
insistence that he get life insurance, did some digging and discovered she had
run up considerable debts, stolen money from his bank account, and was having
the children pawn the household goods. He tossed her out quickly after that. Described as having a “cold reserved demeanor”, she did herself no favors
by not demonstrating any emotion in the court room, except after being
sentenced to death. Being a woman, she expected to be given the “royal
clemency” but her sins were too great. She was hanged at the prison. Apparently
her neck did not break, due to the shortness of the rope, and she died due to
strangulation. 
Megan Huntsman:
The Secret Strangler. Now we move to the great Mormon state of Utah. Most women
kill their children for gain or sympathy (see Munchausen-by-Proxy syndrome).
This one is an oddity however as Huntsman killed six out of seven children (the
last being a stillbirth), but did not collect insurance and no one seems to
have known that she was pregnant.
Directly after birth, the child was either strangled or suffocated.
Wrapping their bodies in a towel or a shirt, Huntsman put them in plastic bags
and then packed them inside boxes in the garage of her home Salt Lake City home.
While this was going on, her husband and their three daughters were unware that
she was pregnant, only stating that at times her weight “fluctuated”. Police
were alerted in early 2014 after her, then estranged, husband discovered them
while looking for tools in the garage. The actual fathers of the children were
unknown, as her husband had been in prison during some of these pregnancies. When
pleading guilty she blamed her murders on a meth and alcohol addiction, an
abusive marriage, and personal depression. She was given thirty to life. 
Deena Schlosser: The Medicated Murderer. Moving
from the meth-heads to the actually insane we have this woman, Deena Schlosser.
The day after her third daughter was born she attempted suicide. She was
diagnosed with bipolar disorder with psychotic features and ordered by Child
Protective Services to seek treatment and restrained from being alone with her
children. Despite taking anti-psychotic drug, she came to believe that the third child
was destined to marry Doyle Davidson, a veterinarian who had become the
family's pastor at the Water of Life Church. The day before she attacked
the baby, Schlosser told her husband that she wanted to give her to Davidson.
Later that day he spanked her with a wooden spoon in front of their children to
smack the crazies out of her. In retaliation she hacked the arms off of her 8
month old daughter, while leaving the other two unharmed. At her trail
everything from religious frenzy to postpartum psychosis was blamed, but the
child was still dead, and she was interned at North Texas State Hospital. Her husband divorced her to regain custody of
the rest of their children. She was released in 2008, after only four years
inside, then recommitted in 2010. She was put on outpatient care and spotted in
2012 working as a Walmart greeter.
China Arnold:
The Baby Roaster. In 2005, a career
felon, China Arnold, was living with her boyfriend Terrell Talley, and while nursing
her newborn twenty eight day baby, the pair got into a drunken argument.
Terrell apparently felt that the baby didn’t look anything like him and was too
light skinned. He then accused her of cheating on him, which China denied. The argument
heated up, both screaming at the other, whereupon China yelled, “Fine you don’t
want her, I’ll get rid of her” and shoved the baby into the microwave then turned it on. Analysis of the body suggested that the child was in the machine
for longer than two minutes. This raised the baby’s internal temperature to a
critical level and she died in the hospital the next day. China was arrested,
and tried twice. The first was a mistrial, but was convicted on the next one. She was
sentenced to life in prison without the possibility of parole.
