Following a trial that took 12 months to come to a conclusion, the 35-year-old Patra woman was sentenced to two more life terms in prison after judges upheld the prosecutor’s position, which argued that Pispirigou “was methodical and calculating,” and driven by an obsessive fixation on the girls’ father, Manos Daskalakis.

Nearly a year after being sentenced to life in prison for killing her 9-year-old daughter Georgina by injecting her with a fatal dose of ketamine, Roula Pispirigou was found guilty on Tuesday of the murders of her two other children, Malena, 3, and Iris, who was just six months old.

Following a trial that took 12 months to come to a conclusion, the 35-year-old Patra woman was sentenced to two more life terms in prison after judges upheld the prosecutor’s position, which argued that Pispirigou “was methodical and calculating,” and driven by an obsessive fixation on the girls’ father, Manos Daskalakis.

“She suffocated her children so that she could keep her husband close,” said the prosecutor, Vassiliki Dimopoulou.

Malena was killed in 2019 while in hospital receiving treatment for leukemia, Iris was suffocated in her bed in 2021 and Georgina also died in a hospital, where she had been admitted after suffering “cardiac arrest,” in 2022.

Dimopoulou also accused the forensic examiners who investigated the girls’ deaths of negligence, saying that their “failures” allowed Pispirigou to get away with her crimes for years.

“They lacked a sense of responsibility and failed to conduct a thorough and serious investigation into the causes of death of three young children. Their work was sloppy and indifferent,” the prosecutor said.

Pispirgou’s appeal against the conviction for murdering Georgina is scheduled for May 5.
