women miscarried after jealous friend who lost her unborn child poisoned them...
Things that make you go - WTH? Unbelievable! Below is a story I
found on UK Daily Mail about how two pregnant women miscarried after a jealous
friend poisoned their drinks.
Secretary Angela Maier, 26, (pictured above) was desperate to
have a baby of her own but suffered three miscarriages. The depressed woman was
consumed with jealousy when she then learned that her sister-in-law and best
friend were pregnant.
Maier told a court in Klagenfurt, Austria: 'I couldn't stand the
thought of them having babies who would be growing up when mine was dead. Mine
should have been with them as well, but instead mine died while theirs went
on.'
She was suffering from depression as a result of her loss and
the sight of her friend's impending births. The woman cruelly poisoned the
expectant mothers' drinks with medicine she was prescribed after her
miscarriage.
Angela in front of the court as she told them she 'couldn't
stand the thought' of the friends having children
The court heard how the woman and her best friend had become
pregnant at the same time, and had been shopping for baby clothes and planning
together.
The friend said: 'I asked for a glass of water, and she said she
had a special drink for pregnant women, that she didn't need any more. A short
while later I started to bleed, and then I lost the baby. When I found out what
she had done, I wrote back and told her she was a murderer. I can't forgive
her.'
Two months later she invited her sister-in-law to visit and did
the same thing again, mixing the medicine into her hot chocolate, and then
'watched me as I drank it', the victim told the court.
The court heard it led to both pregnant women suffering
miscarriages. Maier went on to have a baby of her own, and now has a
three-year-old daughter.
Eaten up with guilt at what she had done, and in the end she had
written to both women to confess two years later after she learned that both
were once again pregnant.
She was sentenced by the court to 18 months in prison, with 14
suspended, after the court ruled that she was psychologically sound although
she had, it accepted, been suffering from depression.
Judge Michaela Sanin said: 'You maliciously took the lives of
two unborn babies.'
