Twins murdered: Bronx mother must appear in court to face charges for suffocating to death her 5-year-old twins in Mount Hope apartment

THE BRONX, New York (WABC) — A mother faces murder charges after her twin sons were found dead in their Bronx apartment last year.

Gloria Asamoah, 42, was indicted by a grand jury on two counts of murder, as well as other charges earlier this week, and is due in court on Friday.

Asamoah’s 5-year-old twins were found dead in their Mount Hope apartment on December 18.

He initially told police they had recently been sick at school, but an autopsy determined they had been asphyxiated.

Asamoah is being held in a psychiatric ward.

She is expected to be arraigned on the charge after doctors clear her.
