Mom arrested after kids found dead

NEW CASSEL, N.Y. — A single mother who neighbors said was overwhelmed was accused of murder Sunday after police found her three small children dead in a bed, then tracked her down and arrested her.

Leatrice Brewer, 27, has been charged with multiple counts of murder, Nassau County police said.

Officers were met at the two-story home by a woman who directed them to a top-floor apartment, where they found the children, Jewell Ward, 6, Michael Demesyeux, 5, and Innocent Demesyeux, 1.

Brewer wasn't home but was found later, said police, who wouldn't reveal where they arrested her. The county medical examiner's office was trying to determine how the children died.
