I think that most people can have empathy with someone that says “woe is me” on some level.  I think that most people can understand growing up and feeling as though life was unfair or that life was depressing.  Those are generally pretty common feelings, especially when we are children growing up and we see other people who perhaps have things that we don’t have or a life that we don’t have.  On January 18th, 2003 though two sisters would take those feelings to an entirely different and sadistic level when they would complete a plot that led to what is believed to have been the first ever matricide in Canada by two sisters.  The names in this case are fictional because names are protected under The Youth Criminal Justice Act, but the story is very real.  The worst part of the murder that we are about to discuss is that everything was premeditated and the two sisters almost got away with it.
