About this ebook

First, She Seduced Them. . .

Sheila LaBarre liked to troll the personal ads and homeless shelters, looking for men whom society had rejected for one reason or another--men she could easily dominate both verbally and sexually. One by one, she invited them to her remote New Hampshire farmhouse, where she engaged them in S&M. But over time, sex gave way to brutal acts of torture as she mercilessly flogged and beat her captives until they confessed to committing unspeakable acts. Once satisfied that they had paid for their sins, Sheila savagely slaughtered them and burned their remains on her farm. . .

Then, Humiliated, Tortured, And Killed Them. . .

From the disturbing audiotapes Sheila made of her victims' confessions to her own bizarre statements in which she claimed to have returned from the dead to be God's avenger, The Burn Farm takes you behind the scenes of the scandal that rocked a quiet New England town, and into the twisted, depraved mind of a manipulative, cold-blooded murderer. . .

Includes 16 Pages of Shocking Photos

Pretty good book of a pretty awful set of events by a manipulative women who then tried to prove she had some sort of insanity. Obviously no one in their right mind would do those thinks but that doesn't mean the perpetrator was insane. Enjoydd learning more about how the criminal mind tries to justify the non justifiable. Benson writes well in an easy to read style.

She was on the tv show Deadly Women. She was very dangerous to men that wasn't real smart or that hasn't been in love with anyone before. I remember watching this one that show. She was very, very cruel. She deserved everything that she got when she went to prison.

Painfully long and scattered. A turtle on Valium crawling through molasses would be faster and more interesting than this book.
