Angelmaker
An angelmaker was a woman who adopted children or accepted them into foster care in exchange for payment, and proceeded to treat them so badly that they died—or turned them into angels, if you will. There are also cases of premeditated murder. Maltreatment took the form of e.g. prolonged neglect and starvation, and since many of the children were illegitimate, their parents rarely visited to check in on them. The foster home "care"givers quickly realized that letting a few of these children die due to drawn-out starvation or maltreatment was economically profitable. One of the most infamous angelmakers is Hilda Nilsson from Sweden. Knee-deep in debt, she started accepting children into foster care as a way to raise money to pay her family's bills. Her home was otherwise well-kept and clean, lulling the parents into a false sense of security as they relinquished their children into Nilsson's care. Eventually, she was exposed after Nilsson refused contact when one mother tried to get in touch with their (most likely already deceased) child. Nilsson was sentenced to death in 1917 after the murder of eight children, with some sources claiming the number of victims reaching as many as 17 children. Before Nilsson's execution, she hanged herself in her jail cell. Although difficult to pinpoint the widespreadness of angelmakers, they were mostly present during the 19th and early 20th century.

Perfect coffee cup for a hockey fan. Great conversation starter.
Perfect gift! My husband loved it. So funny and clever!
Great mug… got one for my girlfriend… instant sex
As always, these are well made mugs that stand up to most anything. And they make perfect gifts (in this case for dirty-minded members of a wedding party). I’m extremely pleased.
Is a great mug that I purchased as a gag gift for a coworker. You know the one who also as interesting words/phrases that only urban dictionary can explain. Great as a coffee mug and better as conversation piece!

The mug exceeded my expectations. Really excellent quality and build
Jim, you’re a fucking idiot interfering with accurate ratings and legitimate feedback. Get a hobby.
Great gift!
A little spendy, but worth it.
My wife kept talking about "ways out" being a Denver version of "psych" and she was right, so I got her this once I found it on UD. She loved it!
It's a great mug, will reccomend to family members my grandma gave me this mug for christmas and it was by far the best gift i got.
It arrived three weeks after ordering but given the holiday rush and inability of shipping to keep on schedule arrived late but was perfect little gift from me to my wife for her morning coffee with her "nickname" on the mug.
I liked the photo on your website and so I ordered the mug. You sent it right away, and it looks great!
Arrived carefully packaged
me and the boys when i get vodka mug
I ordered 3 of your mugs, with different names on them. There was a typo in the information about the name on the back of each of the mugs. This wasn’t a dealbreaker because the people who received them liked them. However, it would be nice if somebody who has basic proficiency in spelling English words could proofread the script for all of your names before they’re prepared.
