Re: Head on the Bread Board

If they really had to kill the baby due to being unable to feed it i can think of better and less painful ways to kill it than chopping its head off shadow!!!!!!!!!!! I myself though wud rather struggle through than do this to a baby

Don't get me wrong, I find it repugnant, and could never do something like this, no matter what...that said, short of a bullet to the head, there is no faster and less painful way of doing someone in than beheading (as long as it's done quick of course, otherwise it's a really, really nasty way to go)...it's mostly abhorant to us for the same reason as execution by bullet to the head - it LOOKS horrible. Taking our visceral reaction out of the equation, the nicer looking ways (drowning, asphyxiation methods etc) take long enough for the kid to have experienced mortal terror and pain, and leaving the kid out in the elements to die of exposure is simply the worst that I can think of on all fronts.

After reading the all too breif article that was supplied, it would appear that the motivation that I offered for the murder was not accurate in this case (the woman apparently just snapped - though one has to wonder if she would have simply used birth control or had an abortion if those had been options open to her), but it IS one that often applies to these types of situations from before the sixties or in a number of third world countries, where our initial judgements based on the society and culture that we know are often unfair to those we are vilifying. Just a little food for thought.

Re: Head on the Bread Board

cant get the long link to work for some reason but if you google

mrs rosary shelfo

look for the one called

Woman Admits Killing Baby

and you can view the original 1943 newspaper article
Here's the link to the search: http://news.google.com/newspapers?ni...g=5120,2631870. Just type in "Rosary Shelfo" and you can read about her arrest and resulting trial.

It sure looks like postpartum depression to me.

Yep, that's what it looks like to me too...good that the judge had her committed instead of executed, which would have been the typical response of the time, given that they didn't understand that condition...

Re: Head on the Bread Board

This was before abortions were legal, and the street ones were so dangerous that this was often the only option for families that couldn't afford another child - keep in mind that there was no birth control available and this was during WWII and tail end of the depression, so budgets were far tighter than we can really grasp today, and adoption wasn't really an option as the system was overflowing with unwanted kids. Also, gruesom as this is, it is still a kinder, swifter death than abandonment out in the open.
OMG!!! I hope nobody ever used mine to kill a baby!!!!

Re: Head on the Bread Board

Well, if she was crazy she probably sawed the child's head off slowly,and inflicted as much pain as possible. I'm sure she wasn't gentile and loving while she was BEHEADING her child.

We need a madder looking smiley for when we're mad. Something with fangs would be wonderful!!!! The one we've got now looks like somebody bashed his head in.
