The shocking discovery of six dead newborn babies were found in a U-Haul storage unit on the morning of October 20^th. This, however, may sound familiar as on April 14, 2014 six newborn babies were found in a Utah home wrapped in shirts and put in plastic bags and placed in a garage where their mother left them. Winnipeg police arrested and charged Andrea Giesbrecht who is also known as Andrea Naworynski with concealing the bodies in storage unit under her name. Homicidal charges have not been made yet and will not be made until autopsy results are back.

This discovery was made by U-Haul faculty when they were cleaning out Giesbrecht’s locker after missed payments weren’t made. At first the employees that found the dead babies were unsure as to how many bodies there were. At first two dead babies were reported, then four, and now the number has increased to six dead babies according to Winnipeg police.

Police say it will be months before autopsy results are in and that means Giesbrecht’s will be held in custody until then for concealing bodies until proven innocent. “Obviously, you’re not allowed to store or conceal human remains. That in itself would be a charge,” states police spokesman Const. Eric Hofley.
