Although the title seems frightening, the subject of this book is applied forensics. It deals with cases in which parents killed their children. The death of a child can be described as the most terrible event in the life of every human being. Each such specific case carries a special burden if it is known that the murder of a child was committed with intent, as are the cases described in this book. The last two cases did not result in the death of the child, but there was murderous intent in their execution.
