A Detroit woman was arrested after the frozen bodies of a boy and a teen girl were found in her home. She has since confessed to torturing and killing her own children.
Reports the Associated Press:
A Detroit mother was arrested Tuesday after the frozen bodies of a boy and girl were found in a deep freezer in the family’s home, police said.
Court officers found the children’s bodies while carrying out an eviction order at the 3-bedroom home in the apartment complex just east of downtown. An autopsy will determine how they died.
Police initially reported a woman’s body was found in the freezer, but later said it was actually the bodies of the two children in a plastic bag.
According to police, the bodies of an 11-year-old boy and a 13-year-old girl were found. A neighbor said she hadn’t seen the children for about a year.
According to WKYZ-Detroit, the mother is Michelle Blair, 35, and she confessed to killing the children. She reportedly admitted to killing her son (who at the time was 9) in May of 2012 and her daughter nine months later.
Blair has two surviving children, a son and a daughter who are 11 and 17, respectively, and currently in protective custody.
Blair allegedly says she caught the young boy sexually assaulting her youngest son and later discovered the daughter continuing to molest the youngest son.
This is heartbreaking.
