were killed by their own mother. 37 year old Mersane Warria (pictured above), has
been charged in the deaths of the children, 7 her own, and one her niece.
The children – four girls and four boys – were aged between two and 14 years,
Australian police said
Warria, who is in hospital where she is recovering from stab wounds, was charged with eight counts of murder in a bedside hearing at Cairns Base Hospital in the northern city of Cairnsueensland today Dec. 21st.
Police didn't say exactly how the children died but they are suspected to have been stabbed to death as several bloody knives were found in the home, while one or two were suffocated.
