Description
The "gentle" sex: mothers, nurturers . . . and sometimes killers. In this look at female criminals, you'll meet wives who poisoned their mates for profit, nurses who hastened their patients' demises and mothers who did the unthinkable. You'll also see how some play their cards right to get lighter sentences than men - or no punishment at all!
