Court documents reveal that a French woman, suspected of murdering her husband and daughter in an Iceland hotel, told police she was "a monster" following her arrest. The incident occurred in January 2025 at a hotel in Reykjanesbær, near Keflavik International Airport.

The suspect, identified in international media as 51-year-old Sylvie B., is accused of killing her 50-year-old husband and their 7-year-old daughter. Icelandic authorities have stated the family was traveling from their home in Dublin, Ireland, and were French citizens.

According to the court records, the woman made the statement to police shortly after her arrest. The case is being handled by Icelandic prosecutors, who have charged her with two counts of murder. The investigation is ongoing, and the motive remains unclear.
