A 39-year-old woman is facing serious charges after the remains of three infants were discovered in a home in Armstrong County.
Jessica Mauthe has been charged with homicide and abuse of a corpse. Authorities report that the property’s owner, while cleaning out a residence near Ford City from which Mauthe had recently been evicted, contacted police after finding a deceased infant inside a trash bag. Investigators later uncovered the remains of two additional babies stored in containers in the attic.
Officials say Mauthe admitted to giving birth to the children and leaving them in the house.
