Evil Women
Evil Women | John Marlowe
Many people find it impossible to believe women are capable of committing brutal murders just like men, but this book shows otherwise. Among the cases covered are: Pamela Smart, a volunteer at a high school drug awareness program, who urged her fifteen-year-old lover and his friends to kill her husband; Nancy Kissel, an expat American in Hong Kong, who served her investment banker husband a strawberry milkshake laced with drugs, then clubbed him to death with a statue; and Celeste Beard, whose husband was disembowelled by her lesbian lover. Each of the cases documented here makes for a chilling read, proving that the female really can be deadlier than the male.

The Most Evil Women In History –Bloody Mary Tudor

Bloody Mary 1516 -1558
Mary Tudor was the most hated Queen in British history. During her five-year reign, she threw all England into chaos. Mary beheaded traitors, murdered heretics and had pregnant women burnt to death in the name of her religious fanaticism. The entire nation lived in fear of her.

Libby1 She got handed a pretty awful set of life circumstances. She was a princess through her childhood and suddenly her father disowned her and called her a bastard when he tried to divorce Catherine of Aragon to marry Anne Boleyn. Her own marriage was horrendous, too. Not to excuse her reign, but I often wonder if some of the past portrayals of her have been tainted by misogyny. (edited) 6y
