Mother on Trial for Suitcase Murders | JQJO

A New Zealand woman, Hakyung Lee, is on trial for the murder of her two children, Minu Jo, 6, and Yuna Jo, 8. Their bodies were found in suitcases in an Auckland storage unit in 2022, years after they were allegedly killed in June 2018. Lee, who denies the charges, was extradited from South Korea. The trial, expected to last four weeks, will examine the cause of death, potentially involving prescription medication, and Lee's state of mind at the time. The children's remains were discovered after Lee defaulted on storage fees. Lee is representing herself, with lawyers on standby.
