A New Zealand mother who was accused of killing her two children and putting their bodies in suitcases left inside a storage unit for four years has been found guilty.

Hakyung Lee, 43, faced the High Court in Auckland, New Zealand, on Tuesday and was found guilty of murdering her two children.

In June 2018, Lee gave her two children, eight-year-old Yuna Jo and six-year-old Minu Jo, an overdose of prescription medicine.

The 43-year-old stuffed their bodies into two suitcases, which she ditched at a storage facility in Auckland.

The children's remains were found inside luggage at an abandoned storage unit in Auckland in August 2022.
