MONTREAL — One of Canada's most notorious female criminals says she's going to live in Quebec now that she's been released from prison.

Karla Homolka (search), 35, was secretly spirited from prison Monday after serving 12 years for the rapes, torture and murders of three teenage girls, including her younger sister.

Homolka received the relatively light sentence in return for her testimony against her ex-husband Paul Bernardo (search). Homolka told the court and psychiatrists she was a battered wife who took part in the rapes and murders to protect herself and her family.

Months after prosecutors made the deal, however, Bernardo's attorneys handed over homemade videotapes by the couple that indicated Homolka was a willing participant, drawing the ire of Canadians.

"I don't want to be hunted down," Homolka told RDI, the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation's French-language news network, after her release. "I don't want people to think I am dangerous and I'm going to do something to their children."

Speaking in slightly accented French, Homolka said in the interview she's "unable to forgive myself."

"I think of what I've done and then often I think I don't deserve to be happy because of this," said Homolka, who appeared drawn and tired.

I saw the A&E special on her and her boyfriend. Anyone that drugs their 15 year old sister so that their boyfriend can rape her deserves to be hunted down in the streets. –preach
