Woman Accused Of Killing Her Baby Jailed In The UK

A woman, Rosdep Adekoya has been jailed 11 years by an Edinburgh court in United Kingdom, after admitting in July that she repeatedly beat Kular  (her son) before stuffing his lifeless body into a suitcase.
Investigations revealed that she lost her temper and killed the toddler after he was repeatedly sick following a family day out at a Nando's restaurant last January.

Press Association report said, after discovering Kular's body on the floor of their Edinburgh home, she wrapped it in a duvet cover, concealed it in the suitcase and drove 25 miles to Fife to hide it in woodland.
In a bid to hide the crime from the police, Adekoya dialled 999 and reported her son missing. She finally broke down and admitted to police, revealing that: ''it was an accident and I panicked,” she said.
Read the rest of the story as reported by the Press Association:
Adekoya had earlier admitted to a separate charge of attempting to defeat the ends of justice by pretending to police he had gone missing.
The court heard Adekoya's internet history showed searches including ''I find it hard to love my son'', ''Why am I so aggressive with my son'' and
''Get rid of bruises''.
Kular died on the night of Tuesday January 14 from injuries inflicted the previous Sunday following the restaurant outing.
He was smacked and struck on the body and head with a clenched fist after vomiting repeatedly.
Adekoya, a prisoner at Cornton Vale prison, Stirling, dragged him to the shower by his arms and ''beat him heavily on his back as he lay over the bath edge, causing internal damage.
"He was kept off nursery as his condition deteriorated and by Tuesday night he was 'listless.''
Advocate depute Alex Prentice told the court: ''He would have been in significant pain but was put to bed.
''The pain would have increased significantly while Mikaeel became dangerously ill ... finally dying as a result of the injuries inflicted upon him by the accused.
''It was during that night that he died."
She was charged with the murder, but pleaded guilty in order to have her charge reduced to culpable homicide at the High Court in Edinburg, where she was sentenced today.

60 Percent of Women Won’t Marry a Debtor

  We’ve come a long way since the Mad Men -esque era of the 50s and 60s, when financial security for women came exclusively in the form of a man. At least that’s according to the findings of a new survey from Charlie. We surveyed 533 single (defined as never married) women ages  18 to 40 in to find out how they think about finances when it comes to finding “the one.” According to the results, women are waiting until well into their relationships to have the “money talk.” If they don’t like what they hear, bad news: most women view potential beaus or belles with a large amount of debt as more of a liability, than an anchor. The majority of single women these days don’t believe that marriage is necessarily the ticket to financial stability. But to understand where we’re at now, it’s important to take a look at where we came from. A Brief History of Women’s Financial Rights Back in the “good old days,” our grandmothers had little choice but t...
