Mom's Plot To Kill Kids Goes Wrong

United Kingdom - Three little boys escaped being murdered by their mom when she sliced her fingers off starting a lawnmower she planned to gas them with.

The mother was involved in a bitter custody dispute with the father of the youngsters aged ten, five and four, a court was told yesterday.

She had been threatened with jail for refusing him access to the kids.

She put the lawnmower in the back of the family car to kill the kids, of Denbigh, North Wales, with the fumes.

But as she started the machine she sliced off two fingers, a Mold Crown Court judge heard.

The 32-year-old — who cannot be named for legal reasons — pleaded guilty to three counts of attempted murder.

She was remanded in custody to be sentenced next month.
