South Korean Woman Killed Her Newborns, Stored Them In Freezer For Years: Cops

According to the cops, the woman's husband said he was told that the babies were aborted by his wife.

A woman in South Korea has been accused of killing two of her newborn babies and keeping their bodies in her freezer for years, CNN reported. The woman, in her 30s, admitted to killing the babies a day after their respective births. She said that she did so because she faced economic difficulties in caring for her three other children, aged 12, 10 and 8. 

Speaking to the outlet, the South Korean authorities said that the newborns were only a day old when they died. The woman first killed her fourth child, born in a hospital in November 2018. She allegedly strangled the baby girl the day after giving birth and then put her body in the freezer of her home. She is accused of doing the same to her fifth child, a boy born in November 2019.

According to the cops, the woman's husband said he was told that the babies were aborted by his wife.
