Three dead babies were found in a Pennsylvania home weeks after a woman was evicted, according to the cops.

Jessica Mauthe, 39, was recently kicked out of the home she was renting in Cadogan Township, according to local outlet TribLIVE.

When her ex-landlord was cleaning out the home, he found a trash bag with a foul odor, TribLIVE reported, citing a criminal complaint.

Local authorities confirmed a dead baby was inside the bag, and when state police got involved in the investigation, they found two totes in the attic that had two more dead babies inside, according to the complaint.

Mauthe told police she gave birth to the first baby in her bathroom roughly a year ago, per local CBS News affiliate KDKA. She said the baby was in the toilet for several minutes, making noises, KDKA reported, citing the criminal complaint.

Mauthe told the authorities she took the baby out of the toilet and wrapped it in towels “until it stopped making noises,” per police. She then put the baby in a closet, per KDKA.

Mauthe also admitted to giving birth to the other two babies and putting their bodies in the attic, according to the cops.

She has been charged with criminal homicide and abuse of a corpse. Local NBC affiliate WPXI said she is being held in the Armstrong County Jail and was denied bail.

This cunt also abandoned cats in the home.

Did she kill those babies because they were conceived when her husband was locked up?

Brent Flanigan, the landlord, told Pittsburgh's Action News 4 on Tuesday that he had law enforcement evict Mauthe for non-payment on Aug. 14. When he returned two weeks later to change the locks and secure the windows, he recorded what he found- abandoned cats and left-behind furniture and personal items.

Flanigan explained that while clearing the home, he discovered a deceased baby wrapped in plastic in a closet.

He immediately called the police, and investigators said a subsequent search of the home uncovered two more deceased infants hidden in totes in the attic.

Police arrested Mauthe, who representatives from a nearby Italian restaurant said had been working there about 50 hours a week.

Neighbors along Oak Avenue reported that Mauthe was raising her two young children alone while her husband was in jail.

According to court papers, Mauthe admitted to police that she gave birth to all three deceased babies inside the home, wrapped them in plastic, and hid their bodies.

Pittsburgh's Action News 4 reached out to the district attorney in Armstrong County and Pennsylvania State Police for more details on the case, including why Mauthe is only charged with one count of homicide and one count of abuse of a corpse despite the discovery of multiple deceased infants.

well if it was only to hide that they were conceived when her husband was locked up there are safe havens in cities and even smaller towns so no freaking excuses to murder your babies ... nobody had to know she had those babies and left them at safe havens and would more than likely have been adopted by loving caring parents grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr

Investigators say they’ve found a fourth dead infant in the Cadogan house Jessica Mauthe had been renting after police searched it last week.

Police initially reported three dead infants in the residence, but new charges filed against Mauthe accuse her of concealing an additional corpse.

About a year ago, she gave birth to a second child in the toilet, wrapping it in towels and holding it against her until it stopped breathing, the complaint said.

The complaint made no mention of the fourth infant’s cause of death.

According to the complaint, Mauthe never sought medical attention for the infants, nor reported their deaths.

Mauthe is charged with criminal homicide, involuntary manslaughter, four counts of concealing the death of a child and four counts of abuse of a corpse.

New details have emerged in the case of a 39-year-old Pennsylvania mother who was arrested last month after authorities said they recovered four deceased babies from the home where she had been living for years prior to her eviction.

Jessica Mauthe appeared for her preliminary hearing on Tuesday before District Judge J. Gary DeComo where she pleaded not guilty to one count each of criminal homicide and involuntary manslaughter as well as four counts each of concealing the death of a child and abuse of a corpse, court records show.

During the hearing, prosecutors called multiple witnesses to testify about the investigation into Mauthe, who was initially arrested after her landlord found a deceased infant wrapped in towels and garbage bags that had been hidden away in one of the closets. A subsequent search of the home revealed three additional dead newborns had been stuffed in tote bags or buckets and hidden in the attic of the home.

A trooper with the Pennsylvania State Police testified on Tuesday that the homicide charge relates to the final child Mauthe gave birth to about 18 months ago, while the manslaughter charge applies to the first child she birthed, which took place about six years ago, according to a courtroom report from the Butler Eagle.

Another trooper reportedly told the court that Mauthe provided investigators with details about each of the children that were stashed in the house, each of whom was birthed in the bathroom. She allegedly said the first baby made a sound or "whimper" before Mauthe passed out, waking up atop the child, who was already deceased.

Details about the second and third babies remained unclear — specifically, whether the children were alive or stillborn. She said the third child, referred to as "Baby C" in court documents, did not make any sounds after being born in the toilet.

The fourth child was allegedly killed by Mauthe after being born alive, also in the toilet.

"The child remained in the toilet for several minutes, during this time, she could hear the child making noises," police previously wrote in a probable cause affidavit. "Mauthe removed the child from the toilet, wrapped a towel around the infant's entire body, where it remained until it stopped making noises."

A trooper testified that during an interview, Mauthe admitted she held the baby for 15 to 20 minutes before it stopped making noise and said she was unsure if the death was the result of holding the child too tightly or because she had the child's nose and mouth covered.

Mauthe's defense attorney, Chuck Pascal, argued that his client should not be facing the homicide and manslaughter charges because prosecutors submitted no evidence about the children's causes of death, the Pittsburgh Tribune-Review reported. He also asserted that Mauthe's admissions should not be taken literally because she was likely in a "dream" state due to the pain, pressure, and blood loss that come with giving birth.

"You can't confess to a crime that can't be proven in some other way," he reportedly told the court. "There was no evidence introduced today about any cause of death, about whether any baby was alive, any scientific evidence. Therefore, you've got to question anything that Miss Mauthe may have said, whether it was accurate or not. She may not know."

She'd known for weeks that the eviction was coming but she made no attempt to move, to make sure that her live children had a place to live, but she also never made an attempt to move the bodies, if I was going to move anything it would have been the bodies. On top of being a POS murdering mother, she was lazy too and stupid too.
