The Oulu district court in western Finland found the woman guilty of five counts of murder and five counts of disturbing the peace of the dead for failing to give the babies proper burials.
The crime was uncovered when neighbours started complaining about a pungent odour in the neighbourhood because this terrible woman (mother) could no long keep on freezing the children she then attempted to dispose the corps in a wast-bin.
The chief magistrate of the Oulu district court in western Finland found the her guilty of five counts of murder and five counts of disturbing the peace of the dead for failing to give the babies proper burials.
Court documents showed she had hid her pregnancies under loose clothing, and gave birth to the babies at home without anyone's knowledge.
District prosecutor Sari Kemppainen told AFP that all of the babies were born full-term or nearly full-term.
The fathers of the first two babies were not identified, but in 2010 she married a man and got pregnant a third time. She later told him she had suffered a miscarriage.
The husband went on to father two more babies, but was unaware of his wife's pregnancies or crimes. He petitioned for divorce immediately after the bodies were discovered.
When questioned by police, the mother was unable to explain why she had opted to keep, and not bury, the bodies.
A life sentence in Finland usually amounts to about 12 years behind bars.
How can one call such a mother tender and love. Perhaps, we don't know how many man she has frozen before.
