Remember the 8 siblings who were found
stabbed to death at their home in Cairns,
Australia in the early hours of Friday Dec. 19th?
(read here ) Well, looks like they 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. Police
say they are not looking for other suspects and
the woman is yet to reveal what motivated such
an attack on her own family.
Warria had her seven children for five different
fathers.
