An Edinburgh woman who put methadone on a baby's dummy to stop him crying has been jailed for three years.

Should the title of this topic not be 'NHS helps cheat Darwin again...'

See that program last night, Martina Cole's Lady Killers? Anyway, it was about Amelia Dyer, a baby farmer. She used to give the kiddies Laudanum, as did many others.

Oh FFS. Just when you think you've seen the utter idiocy of the human race, another one comes along.

Couldnt believe it when I heard this story. The paramedics were taking care of the bairn as she drifted in and out on consciousness and the mother still didnt say anything!

What was the kid doing with a women on heroine replacement anyway?
