US: A 23-YEAR-OLD Ohio woman has been charged on three counts of murder for killing her three sons.

As a result of this, police said she has been remanded in jail without bond, pending when her trial would begin.

Ms. Brittany Pilkington killed them merely because her husband neglected her only daughter for the boys.

She made the confession to police, saying that her husband caused her to send the children to their early graves.

Intially, police never suspected her involvement in the high profile crime, particularly when her four years old son died in April, and two months after her three-month-old boy also died.

But the police changed their focus of investigation when the third boy was found dead last Tuesday.

Police then decided to question the mother, it was learnt.

During interrogation, Pilkington confessed that she killed her children by suffocating them with blankets at each of the occasions.

Unfortunately, when the toddler boy died in July, Bellefontaine authorities took away the remaining kids – a boy and her four years daughter – but they were returned to Pilkington after medical examiner could not find any trace of her involvement.

The story changed when police in the small town southwest of Cleveland were curious on why the mother did not show any emotion of sadness for losing her children, particurly the death of the three-month-old boy in July, it was learnt.

GatewayMail gathered that the daughter, Hailey Pilkington, is now living at the local child welfare agency, in a move quickly taken to guarantee her safety.

Speaking on the crime, Logan country Prosecutor, Willaim Goslee said: “In her mind, she was protecting her daughter from not being as loved as the boys were by their father.”

It was learnt that the woman and her husband, Joseph, have been cooperating with the police as she confessed to the killings.
