Sydney Morning Herald reports here. Excerpt:
'A Queensland woman is to be sentenced today for gassing her two children to death in the family car - so her ex-husband couldn't have custody of them on Christmas Day. The Queensland Supreme Court trial heard the mother, who can't be identified, started planning her children's deaths in October 2002.
...
She had been issued with a Family Court order stating the children should spend Christmas Day with their father.
One month later, the bodies of her eight-year-old son and 10-year-old daughter were found in the garage of their home near Bribie Island.
A Supreme Court jury found the woman guilty last week.'
