“Even in the hospital she still administered poison”: Georgette De Roo, the black widow for whom her husbands were worth more dead than alive

“With all my goodness, what still hangs over my head?” Even in full panic, Georgette De Roo from Eeklo in East Flanders still made a bid for an Oscar in the mid-1980s. Detectives have just exhumed the body of her first husband Albert, and found that there is hardly any decomposition. Cause? A chemical that also appears to be abundant in the body of her current boyfriend Maurits. Two idlers who simply deserved it, Georgette believes. Although it turns out during her assize trial that the venom also came from her figuratively.
