Zsuzsanna Fazekaš
Zsuzsanna Fazekaš, also known as Aunt Žuži, was a midwife in the village of Nagyrév, Hungary, who became notorious for her role in a series of family poisonings between 1914 and 1929. She provided women with poisons to kill their abusive husbands, leading to the deaths of numerous individuals, including family members. Her actions were rooted in the desperate circumstances faced by women in a patriarchal society, where many felt that poisoning was their only means of survival. Fazekaš's involvement in these crimes has labeled her as a 'death angel,' a term originally associated with women performing illegal abortions. Her story raises complex moral questions about victimhood and agency in the face of domestic violence.
