A dog owner has installed CCTV after her pet ate a sausage roll laced with rat poison, left outside her home near a popular West Yorkshire beauty spot.
Police have issued a warning after the incident close to Coxley Woods on the outskirts of Wakefield.
Bradford Crown Court heard Lupidi and her girls ended up in a refuge in November after she called police to her home in West Yorkshire.
She told officers her partner Carl Weaver, 31, had slapped her twice the night before, though one of the officers told the jury there were no visible injuries.
Lupidi, an Italian national, killed the two girls the morning after she moved to the refuge.
Prosecutors said she stabbed the girls to death because she feared she may lose them to her partner.
Peter Moulson QC said that moments after the killings Lupidi told a member of staff: "It's his fault. Now he has a reason to kill me. If I can't have them, he can't have them either.
