Not really a loss

Stuff reports:

The woman who killed her elderly father by setting his house alight has died suddenly, the day after she was found guilty of murder.

Lynne Martin, 63, was found dead in the cells at the Gisborne Police Station on Thursday morning, Stuff understands. 

She was being held there before being transferred to prison, after a jury on Wednesday afternoon found her guilty of murdering her father, Ronald Allison.

Allison, 88, died when his house near Te Karaka, about 30 km from Gisborne, burned to the ground in the early hours of January 25, 2013.

I don’t think one should celebrate anyone committing suicide, but it is fair to say that Martin seemed a pretty despicable person.

Killing your 88 year old father is bad enough, but to do it by burning their house down so they die one of the more horrible ways possible is pretty sociopathic.
