A German court handed here today a 51-month jail term to a woman who let three of her six children die straight after birth and kept the tiny bodies in the family's home freezer, according to DPA. After her 18-year-old son discovered his little sisters in the chest in May while looking for some food, she said, "Take me to the police." She told the court the first child drowned when water from a shower ran into her mouth, the second suffocated when the woman lay on top of her and the third died of a lack of care when the woman passed out after drinking too much alcohol. The accused, 44, listened impassively as a judge in Siegen, western Germany, convicted her on two counts of manslaughter.
