The mother of seven of the eight children was charged with eight counts of murder
on Sunday in a bedside hearing, two days after they were found stabbed
to death in a Manoora home.She appeared before a magistrate at the
Cairns Base Hospital where she is being treated for stab wounds to the
chest, which were possibly self-inflicted.

Neighbours reveal Warria, who is the mother to seven of the children and
an aunt to the other, was seen by neighbours running through the street
screaming at 3am on the morning the bodies were found.She approached a
group of children and 'had a go at them', according to one community
member.After her confrontation with the youngsters she wandered back
towards her home.
