She was ultimately shot, and was among two other doctors who were killed (including Felix Pitts and James Norm, the latter two being incinerated in a back room), with her feet also being punctured post-mortem with venom from a poisonous beetle due to the Shilluk tribe's belief that poison beetle venom ensures the dead cannot return as zombies."@en . . . . .
