Woman took photos as she lit blaze that killed couple and newborn baby inside townhouse

A woman who lit a fire that killed a young couple and their newborn baby took photos of the blaze before leaving the family to die.

Abbey Forrest, 19, 28-year-old Inderpal Sohal and their daughter Ivy were asleep upstairs in their rented townhouse in Melbourne, Australia when Jenny Hayes set fire to a mattress in a downstairs bedroom.

The couple woke up but were unable to reach the front door due to the flames, and could not open the only accessible window because it was locked with a chain. All three died from carbon monoxide poisoning.
