Less than an hour later, Andrea drowned 2-year-old Luke in the bathtub, according to a police investigator familiar with her taped confession who spoke anonymously to local newspapers. By the investigator's account, Andrea then put the boy's body on a bed, under a sheet, and repeated the process with Paul, 3, and John, 5. While she was drowning six-month-old Mary, Noah, 7, walked in. When he tried to run, Andrea allegedly dragged him back to meet his siblings' fate. When all the children were gone, she dialed 911.

He didn't mean it fondly...
...story homes is a stunning beachscape. The setting sun silhouettes scores of ships run aground, groaning as their rusting hulls shift on the sand. Look closer and you'll see thousands of workers moving like hermit crabs across the oil-slicked beach, dismantling the vessels sheet by metal sheet. They chant and smile while they carry the monstrous slabs of tonnage for as little as 13 an hour. "Singing makes us forget the pain," says a young laborer, his tanned body smeared with grease...
