This seriously makes me sick!!!!
A woman has been arrested on six counts of murder after authorities found the bodies of seven infants packed into separate cardboard boxes at a home in Utah, police said.
Police arrested Megan Huntsman, 39, of Pleasant Grove, on Saturday following a gruesome discovery at a residence formerly occupied by the woman who they say moved out in 2011.
Officers responding to a phone call from a family member who is currently living at the Pleasant Grove residence arrived at the home to find the first baby which "appeared to be a full term," according to a police statement.
"A family member was cleaning out the garage and came across a box that looked suspicious. Upon opening the box they found the infant inside," Capt. Michael Roberts of the Pleasant Grove Police Department told ABC News.
Authorities obtained a search warrant to inspect the home, where they found six more infant bodies inside, packaged in separate containers, the police statement said.
Roberts said that through their investigations, they had reason to believe that Huntsman had given birth to the six other babies in the period between 1996 and 2006 and murdered them.
Authorities arrested Huntsman and booked her at the Utah County Jail on six murder counts, but did not comment on why she was not charged with seven counts.
The adult residents of the home claimed to have no knowledge of the dead babies, police said. Roberts could not confirm whether Huntsman had any other children or if she was married.
"It's still an ongoing case so we're still working on some information we've received ," Roberts said.

She shouldn't b killed. She should b packed in a box with only enough ventilation to keep her half alive. Fed through a tube and live in her own ****.
I know exactly what you mean!! Both of my boys are miracles and I just don't see how someone could do that to an innocent baby!!!!

and people say teen moms are bad. This woman would have been close to thirty when she started practicing her own sick version of infanticide. Disgusting.

That's about an hour away from where I live. I dated a guy that lived around the corner from this psycho. I can't believe anyone can be so sick. It makes me so angry! My poor cousin has fertility issues and has only managed one healthy pregnancy and birth. Her son is now five. How is it that sick people like that biotch can have ten children and kill six of them, but my cousin was only given one?!
She has three other children who are teens. She was married but divorced now. And the ex husband was the one who called the police after he got out of prison and went to the house. He said he found the baby in the box. Idk i think he knew as well. This is so disgusting.
i saw this one Facebook. broke my heart and when i started to read more about this i got light headed. i don't know how someone can do this to an innocent child. so sad.
Ikr!! I couldn't believe what I was reading!! That is just sad! Some women shouldn't be able to experience the miracle of a child!!
Omg I read that earlier and wanted to cry! I don't know how in someone could do that!
