How Woman, Boyfriend, Four Children, Lived At Home With Decaying Dead Babies For Years

A mum in America has been charged with two counts of murder after the remains of three babies were found in the filthy, vermin-infested home she shared with her boyfriend and four other children. Erika Murray, 31, was charged with foetal death concealment, witness intimidation and permitting substantial injury to a child.
Her boyfriend, Ray Rivera, is charged with offences including assault and battery on a child and reckless endangerment of a child.

Prosecutors described the horrific conditions that four children - aged from six months to 13 years - were found alive in at the house.
Authorities said there were piles of dirty diapers, rubbish strewn everywhere, and remains of dead animals. The children were removed from the address in August after a 10-year-old boy went to a neighbour's house, and asked for help in quieting a crying baby.
The neighbour allegedly discovered a severely neglected six-month-old baby covered in excrement, and a three-year-old child.
After the older children were interviewed, police searched the house in Massachusetts, where they discovered the remains of three babies.

Jim Nwobodo Disowns Children Over Late Son’s Burial Plans

Jim Nwobodo who recently lost his first son to cancer is presently sad and unhappy about how things have turned out between him and his other children. The late son who is a product of the former Governor and his estranged wife was about to be buried at Jim Nwobodo’s second house last week Friday, but his younger brothers refused and insisted Nwobodo must bury him in his compound, which will make them the rightful owner of the property when he his gone, because they smell he wants to will the house to his second wife.
The former governor after reading a lot in the news about the issue decided to call a press conference today to address the matter where he made it clear he had divorced the mother of these children, and at this point, he is forced to believe they are not his flesh and blood. Hear him;

“This is not really a very happy occasion for me – at my age, I should be talking about peace and not to get involved in something like this.
“Ifeanyi was my first son and unknown to us, myself and my wife, his family hid him.
“When we got to know that he was sick, we were very worried, we made sure he was taken to the best cancer hospital in the US.”
