According to Evening Standard, Lane had earlier faked a pregnancy, before luring her 28-year-old victim to her home with an advert for maternity clothes online. She beat Ms Wilkins over the head with a lava lamp before stabbing her in the neck with the broken glass, cutting her abdomen and removing the unborn baby from her womb.
Lane then left the victim in a pool of blood after the attack near Denver. Sadly, Ms Wilkins’s unborn baby, later named Aurora, did not survive the horrific attack. Addressing her attacker in court in front of a blown up picture of Aurora, Ms Wilkins said:
“It is clear that you need healing and I hope that you get it.”
