Statistics show that female crime and female violence is on the rise, particularly in America, where violent offences committed by women have risen by 137 per cent in the past two years. Women are now a major force in both organized crime and terrorism. In the last ten years they have also come to the fore as gun-toting leaders of Los Angeles street gangs, whose members are every bit as ruthless and aggressive as their mae counterparts. Women are now terrorists, gang-leaders, Mafia godmothers and serial killers. They are running organized crime syndicates and shooting down their enemies. From Ulrike Meinhof to Rose West; from IRA terrorists to Mafia godmothers - Ann Magma looks at the rise and rise of the dangerous female.
