Yes, this woman was mentally ill, had an abusive background (her father was an abusive alcoholic)and she eventually spent 37 years of her life in prison. She was Britain's longest-detained female prisoner.

She was given the last rites (she was a Roman Catholic) before she died.... so will she then be absolved of all her sins? I hope she's rotting in hell!

Here's a photo of Myra Hindley in the 70s:

I would differ with that analysis. She was 15 when the Pope took her for his Mistress and then enjoyed power that was usually only for males.
 
 In history women who took on male roles of power were usually vilified. The main source for her was written by a bishop (Liutprand) who called her "a shameless whore..who exercised power over the Romans like a man" Sounds like he some small biais going on.
 
The femme fatale or the she devil is a popular concept in historical writings.. I am not saying there were not bad/violent women. Just that history is not black and white on such matters(is it ever?)

The worst woman ever in my country was called La Quintrala. It was an rich woman of colonial times, member of one of the most powerful families, that was acussed of poisonning his father, murdering theirs lovers, torturing a slave to death for fun and commiting an endless string of crimes, inclusing accusations of  sacrilegy and witchcraft. She was amazingly pretty.

I've heard this story before, but always thought it was a legend. Did she really exist, Pinguin?

Yes. It is an historical person. She was called Catalina de los Rios Lisperguer. Of course, there is a lot of myth involved in that story as well.
