The first thing we do...

Is hang all the lawyers...
A woman who murdered her four-year-old daughter is appealing Revenue Canada’s decision not to allow her the child tax benefit.

Astrid Margaret Literski, who is incarcerated at the Nova Institution in Truro, pleaded guilty in February 2005 to the second-degree murder of Eveleigh Rain Bringsli by feeding her sleeping pills and then smothering her with a pillow.

The mother, then 34, killed her daughter on Sept. 1, 2003, one day before the little girl’s first day of kindergarten.
I'm speechless... I got nuthin'.
