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.
