"A hateful mother killed her five year old son to spite his father before taking her own life, an inquest has heard.
Emma Hart, 27, force-fed Lewis Dangerfield a lethal cocktail of pain killers and antidepressants at their home then fled to her mother's flat nearby and slashed her wrists.
In a note to the little boy's father, Shaun Dangerfield, which she left by his body, she wrote: 'I told you I would make you pay, enjoy your life now, nothing is stopping you, ha ha ha. Just remember it's your fault.
...
Her mother told the inquest: 'She is not a horrible person, she was a loving mum.'"
You have to be a bit deranged to want to kill people - regular people just don't go around killing. Does that mean she wasn't evil? Hell no! Being deranged is not an excuse.
Having a vagina is not an excuse.

it does sound as though she was suffering from a personality disorder, such as Borderline Personality Disorder, where sufferers are prone to making gestures, threats or even genuine attempts to harm themselves. am not a doctor, but i was diagnosed with BPD, and not only did i attempt self-harm, but i had difficulty handling rejection.
however, this is not an excuse for bad behaviour. She took a life, and should lose her liberty for life.
