PHILADELPHIA — A northeast Pennsylvania woman suspected of killing five newborns and keeping their skeletal remains in a locked closet has negotiated a plea.

Michele Kalina, 44, of Reading is set for a combined plea and sentencing hearing on June 2, court records show.

Investigators believe the home-health aide secretly gave birth to five babies conceived through an extramarital affair with a co-worker, and immediately killed them.

DNA tests revealed the boyfriend fathered at least three and possibly four of the five slain infants; there was not enough material from the fifth set to test. The size of the bones suggests the infants were born at or near term.

1. Well, at least she didn't have an abortion. The religious right should be so proud.

2. If she is giving birth full term, WHO would believe she had "abdominal cysts that needed to be drain

drained"? Seriously, NO ONE noticed or everyone believed this?
