Brittany Pilkington Suffocated Three Sons So Their Father Would Pay Attention To Her, Her Daughter


Three little brothers have died in the Pilkington home in the space of a year. Their mother, Brittany, blamed their deaths on a genetic disorder. Police couldn’t pin down a cause.

But on Tuesday, after the third boy died — a three-month old baby — their mom finally came forward and confessed to their murders.

And the motive behind that murder is disturbing.

According to WBNS, Brittany Pilkington, 23, killed her three sons because her husband, Joseph, paid too much attention to the boys and not enough to her or their 3-year-old daughter, Hailey. That daughter is now in foster care, her mother in jail.

Logan County Prosecutor William Goslee told the Columbus Dispatch it was a twisted act of love.

   “In her mind, (Brittany) was protecting her daughter from being not as loved as the boys were by their father.”

And the boys’ father is inconsolable, now facing the burial of a third child. Police do not suspect Mr. Pilkington of having any involvement in their deaths, and family say he is so upset he’s considering admitting himself to the hospital.

As for the neighbors, they aren’t surprised that another of the Pilkington children is dead. James Breaston, 78, consoled Joseph in April when after the death of one son. “He was crying, the tears were rolling, and she was just cold. She just stared like nothing happened,” he said. When police arrived again Tuesday, “I thought, ‘Oh, there’s another baby dead.’ ”

The murders of all three children followed a similar pattern. Brittany told police she suffocated all three by putting a blanket over their heads: Noah, 3 months when he died Tuesday; Gavin, who died in April at age 4; and Niall, 3 months, when he died in July last year.

Niall and Gavin were found dead by their father when he returned home from work.

Earlier this year, Brittany called 911 to report Gavin was choking and was tutored by operators on how to perform CPR — she told them his body and lips were white and his chest wasn’t moving.

Officials investigated the child’s death, but couldn’t determine the cause and the evidence to suggest Pilkington was responsible was scant. Noah and Hailey had been removed from the home while they made their determination, and were returned to Brittany six days ago when their siblings’ deaths were deemed natural.

But then came another 911 call. This time it was Noah. On Monday, EMTs had been to the apartment when she reported breathing troubles — the baby was set up with a sleep apnea monitor. On Tuesday, she called to say the monitor was going off and he wasn’t breathing, the Dayton Daily News added. Again, dispatchers walked Brittany through CPR. He was pronounced dead at the hospital.

“Why would you give them back after a little boy just died and when you’re in the middle of an investigation?” said Pilkington’s uncle, Joe.

The coroner’s office will conduct an autopsy on Noah, but an official cause of his death has yet to be determined. Meanwhile, neighbors like Roger Robinson continue to shake their heads and wonder what would lead Brittany Pilkington — described as meek and shy — to commit such heinous acts.

   “It makes me sick just thinking about it, three little kids killed at the hands of their mom.”

Ain't humanity neat?

String her up.

High Speed Lead.  Apply directly to the forehead.  Apply directly to the forehead.

ETA: Poor kids.

would defintely settle for this, but seems WAY to quick, and not painfull enough, she needs to sufffer

Fuck that. Set her on fire and walk away.

Monsters.  This world is full of them.

yeah Just Grande

The poor dad.  

And yet there are loving couples who can't have kids.

I hope the father regains custody.

Her triggers were obviously met by her husband forcing both she and her daughter into the heterocage.

She's a hero of the movement.

TC

ETA: Prayers for the dad and daughter.

That is sticking your dick in crazy . Her picture should be in the lesson guide for young men everywhere

Kill her.

Yep

And since they lack horns and hooves they are hard to spot ... until something like this happens

ETA: I realize or course that the perp is 23, but cripes she looks like a baby herself. Apparently I'm getting old.

Holy shit that poor father.

you can't say that is dehumanizing.

F'ing monster

Nah. She admitted it, lay down the sentence of hanging. Wall her out of the courtroom and to the gallows outside. Giver her 15 seconds for any past words and pull the lever.

The reason capital punishment doesn't work is because it's not a public affair, therefore not a real deterrent.

God bless those babies, the husband, and his daughter.

How terrible.

They didn't even get to harvest the organs for science.

If she got push presents none of this would have happened.

Loud Rollies Save Lives

She'll get lots of attention now.

Some people are just too fucked up and beyond help.... she will never feel remorse or regret in what she did. She needs to be put down.

Set the bitch on fire.

My boy just recently turned five, I can't imagine! She needs to die and die soon, and painfully I might add.

Wood chipper... Feet first

Evil exists in this world, that's for damn sure.

Reminds me of a Daniel Tosh joke


"There’s no excuse for domestic violence." It sounds like a challenge. I mean, does everything have to be so black-and-white in this kindergarten country of ours? What if you come home from a long day at work and your wife has drowned two of your kids - she’s about to dunk the third one. Can you run over and pop her then? "Unfortunately no, there’s no excuse. You’re going to have to let her drown that third one."

At least she didn't shoot anyone.

Flame thrower is the answer.

Those poor kids. I can't even imagine.

Capital punishment never was supposed to be a deterrent.  It was, and still is, just supposed to keep people who are capable of such monstrous deeds from being able to perform them again.  As such, in cases where there's absolutely no chance for the wrong person having been found guilty, I'm all for it.

Condolences to the Father, ill wishes for the mother.

Lifetime of broom handle rape and beatings in prison.

white people

Mentally ill or no, string her up.

People like this can pop out kid after kid.  When me and my wife are having a hell of a time having one.  If you don't want your kid we'll take them.

Flay her alive.

Edit: nvm, I didn't realize the daughter was still alive. I needed to read more closely.

that is absolutely terrible. 3 dead boys, a suicidal father, and a mom that will never see daylight.  That little girl's head is going to be fucked up for a long time thinking she caused the mom to do it.  Hopefully the dad can pull through - his daughter is going to need him.

I can't even imagine what the father is going through.

 

That makes my heart hurt...
