Publisher Description:
DEADLY DADS UK (Paternal Filicide) Of all the hideous violent crimes that are committed, the murder of one's own children, one's own flesh and blood, are the most baffling. We immediately presume the parent must have lost his mind in a temporary moment of insanity or madness. It is hardly surprising that we find ourselves recoiling in horror at such appalling tragedies and comfort ourselves by thinking that they are isolated, senseless, incidents. What can possibly make a father commit such unspeakable savagery against his family? Is it despair, hatred, or revenge, or a hideous, deranged possessive love or an incomprehensible abnormality? Are these fathers normal men driven to the edge when circumstances in their lives go wrong or just devilish fiends? Unfortunately, as demonstrated in the following profiles in this book, and there are a great many more than those the author has included, these kinds of murders are not as rare as we would like to believe.
