Unsolved facts still remain following arrest of mother who killed her babies

Following the macabre discovery of five dead infants in a sauerkraut barrel in Czerniejów in the outskirts of Lublin, the police has managed to find the mother of the children accused of murdering them after they issued a warrant for her arrest and publicized the case. The 38-year-old woman, Jolanta K., confessed to killing three of her children. "She stated that the births took place at home in the bath-tub filled with water, in which she later drowned the infants. She kept the corpses wrapped in newspapers and plastic bags in her fridge," announced the spokesman for the Lublin prosecutor, Andrzej Lepieszko. Jolanta K. claims that she killed her babies due to fear of her husband, who molested her, and who did not accept her pregnancies. The prosecution is currently investigating why were there five corpses found in the barrel, while Jolanta K. has only confesses to murdering three of them. (Gazeta Wyborcza, p. 6) A.K.
