Usually, if the victim was an infant, the mother would state that the child was a stillborn, such was the case in the winter of 1765 when a Brita Engström was suspected of the crime.
I regel påstod modern att barnet var dödfött, som i ett fall av barnamord som rullades upp på vintern 1765 när Brita Engström stod åtalad misstänkt för brottet.
