In 1937, little Helen Tiernan was murdered by her mother, Helen (age 25), when the child was only 7 years old.
Helen's brother, Jimmy who was five at the time, was also badly injured in the attack.
Supposedly, the mother wanted to kill her children so that she could be with her new lover. Their mother had been widowed 3 yrs before the attack.
She stated to authorities that the lover said that he would be with her if she didn't have children. However, even more of a plot twist, the lover may have already been married.
