WINNIPEG — Police continue to search the home Thursday of the woman charged in the case of six dead infants found in a storage locker.
Two Winnipeg police cruisers remained outside the Maples-area home on Thursday morning. They’re expected to remain at the scene for most of the day.
Police are collecting evidence at the home of Andrea Giesbrecht, who is accused of hiding the remains of six infants at a Winnipeg storage facility. The locker where the remains were found was rented in Giesbrecht’s name.

The bodies were found in separate containers filled with liquid. It’s unclear if the liquid was intended to speed or slow decomposition.
Greg Brodsky, Giesbrecht’s lawyer, wants the courts to stop autopsies on the remains until a judge decides whether he can have a second pathologist present to observe.
