The next killer in this chronicle is another female from Italy who poisoned at least 600 victims in Rome, Naples and Palermo. Her name was Giulia Tofana and she made her assassination carreer in the XVII century. Giulia invented the poison Aqua Tofana, named after her, which she sold to women who wanted to murder their husbands. She was beautiful and liked to hang out with apothecaries, watching while they made their potions and learning to do them by herself. Giulia was sympathetic to the low status of women and most often sold her poison to women trapped in difficult marriages. She became known as a friend to the troubled wife and received many referrals.

When her business was finally revealed to the Papal authorities by a customer, she was so popular that the locals protected her from apprehension. She escaped to a church, where she was granted sanctuary. However, when a rapid rumour, claiming that she had poisoned the water, tore through Rome, the police forced their way into the church and dragged Toffana in for questioning.
Under torture, she confessed to killing 600 men with her poisons in Rome alone between 1633 and 1651, but this cannot be confirmed owing to the torture and the widespread distribution of the poison. She was ultimately executed in Rome. After her death, her body was thrown over the wall of the church that had provided her with sanctuary.

I have a feeling that at least this time, I'm not the only one who sympathizes with our friend Giulia ...
