Statements
threatened that a woman would remain childless; confessed to killing her brother saying that she was worthy of death for that reason, fall outs, cursing, deathThe main issue in her case was that she killed her brother, for which she expressed extreme remorse and thought she should die (lots of witnesses testified to this). She seemed to have lived with her brother at the time, more likely she lived just next door, perhaps in a semi-attached kind of house. She had many conflicts within her immediate family, her brother and a nephew. (English)
