A mother has been found guilty of concealing the decomposing remains of her six babies in a storage locker.

Andrea Giesbrecht, 42, from Winnipeg in Canada, was charged with six counts of concealing the body of a child in October, 2014.

Storage company staff found the bodies in her locker after she fell behind on payments.

Manitoba provincial court Judge Murray Thompson said the evidence presented at trial left “no doubt” that Ms Giesbrecht concealed her pregnancies and the resulting delivery of the six infants.

Each charge carries a maximum penalty of two years in jail.
