Mum accused of killing kids appears in court
A mum accused of killing her two children has appeared at the Old Bailey.
Patricia Bousson has been charged with killing six-week-old Mary and five-year-old Michael Bousson after their bodies were discovered on May 5 last year at their Melfort Road flat, Thornton Heath.
A postmortem examination could not establish a cause of death for the two children.
Bousson appeared in the dock yesterday for the plea and case management hearing.
The 26-year-old, who is also charged with causing actual bodily harm to another young child, did not enter a plea.
The hearing was adjourned until May 16 so psychiatric reports could be prepared.
Bousson, a French national, is being treated in Shirley's Bethlem Royal Hospital.
