“Sometimes I still think I would be better off dead. The distance with my children is too great. Whatever the punishment, it doesn’t matter. The punishment is already there. Until the end of my days.” Five-time child murderer Geneviève Lhermitte has obtained euthanasia due to hopeless psychological suffering. The Sudpresse newspapers write this on the basis of well-informed sources. According to the court psychiatrists who examined her at the time, she was severely depressed and insane. Nevertheless, she was convicted and imprisoned.
