Women do murder but female pattern violence and male pattern violence are generally pretty different.
Some women were prolific murderers back in the day when lethal poisons were readily available, husbands, lodgers, neighbours, little bit of cyanide in the apple pie, wait for the outcome… but science and substance control laws made that impossible (a good thing!).
Women who kill are almost all either accomplices to male muderers, hit man hirers or Angel of Death types and sadly, victims of women tend to be their own family members, often children.
Two adult males at once seems very unlikely, especially in the U.K. where gun crime isn’t common.
If’s most likely that the woman charged isn’t going to lead to a murder conviction (either because she didn’t kill them or it’s manslaughter via supply of drugs) but it’s right to be somewhat suspicious of stories like this, especially since people don’t seem to naturally match up ‘woman arrested’ stories with their eventual outcome, which is often ‘man convicted’ (no shade intended, it often takes a year or more to come to trial so if you aren’t local/paying attention, it’s understandable).
A male friend of mine was arrested for the murder of his own elderly mother, but the charges were dropped eventually (burglary gone wrong). It was very hard for him because he couldn’t grieve his mother properly and he was shunned by family. Some gossipy people still assume he’s a murderer who ‘got away with it’, despite the perpetrator getting a life sentence.
I really feel for the Ilford woman in the 2021 story - imagine coming home from work to find your boyfriend and his mate had been stabbed almost a hundred times? And calling for help, only to get tasered by the cops? And then presumably held in a cell for some hours wearing a paper forensics suit? And the crime scene is your own home, so no sanctuary for you. Plus all the usual stress of a trial on a bereaved love one. Absolute nightmare.
