margie in her cell

Margie Velma Barfield was a kindly grandmother with a secret life as a drug addict. Fueled by cocaine, she killed seven people. She killed her mother because her mother wouldn't make her car payment. She killed an elderly couple she was hired to care for because their voices "grated on her." Then, she killed her four husbands "just because." She confessed to her son, Ronnie, who insisted she turn herself in. Because of her angry and arrogant attitude and lack of remorse, she was sentenced to die by lethal injection at the age of 52. She chose pink cotton pajamas and an adult diaper for the event. Her last meal consisted of Cheez Doodles and a Coke.

Karla killed her sister, Tammy, on Christmas Eve so Paul could have sex with her

Child rapist, torturer and serial killer, Karla Homolka, has been released from prison after serving only 12 years for the murders of three teenage girls, including her 15-year-old sister, Tammy -- who she offered to her husband, Paul Bernardo, as a gift. It was Christmas Eve, and he wanted to rape her sister. She was okay with that, and stole some stuff from the Vet clinic she worked at to knock her out.

At first, there was some sympathy for Karla because she had been badly beaten and abused over a long period of time. But while she was serving her light twelve year sentence for the brutal torture, rape, and murder of these three young girls, video tapes of the crimes were discovered hidden in a house someone had just bought. The tapes showed Karla CLEARLY ENJOYING the rapes and torture. Though her husband was already a long time rapist before he met Karla, he had never killed anyone. Many believe that she was the true killer, as his sexual assaults filled her with a violent and jealous rage.

The first three photos are her victims, sister Tammy, Kristen French, who was abducted in a church parkinglot trying to give them directions, and Leslie Mahaffey, who was 14 and locked out of her house when she met Paul lurking in a bush.

In the playful "pool" photo, the killers, Paul Bernardo and Karla are on their honeymoon, "clowning around", less than TWO WEEKS after they murdered Kristen French. Karla has been free for almost two years, and has changed her name, gotten married, and had a son. Paul Bernardo is still in prison, and continuing his LIFE LONG OBSESSION with the "rapper" Vanilla Ice. I'm not kidding.

Karla gave one interview when she was released, saying that she was looking forward to having an iced cappucino, and that her parents had a beautiful relationship with her, even though she murdered her sister in their basement on Christmas Eve.
