Two infants were found dead inside a Woodside apartment on Thursday afternoon, and detectives are now questioning their 23-year-old mother.

Police made the horrific discovery while responding with FDNY units to a wellness check called in at about 3:10 p.m. on April 22 at the Woodside Houses, located at 31-76 51st St.

According to Chief of Housing David Barrere, the officers from NYPD Public Service Area 9 met with concerned family members and knocked on the door to the mother’s fifth-floor apartment. Once they got inside, he said, they encountered a nightmarish scene.

Barrere said one of the infants, believed to be six weeks old, was found lifeless inside a crib with trauma to their body. The officers then asked about a second baby inside the home, and the mother pointed them toward a sink.

“Officers discovered a second child under the sink area, wrapped in a blanket, who was also unconscious and unresponsive,” Barrere said.

Responding EMS units pronounced both babies dead at the scene. The Medical Examiner’s office will conduct autopsies to determine the cause of their deaths.

Police immediately took the mother into custody for further questioning. Barrere said that officers also recovered a knife at the scene.

According to Barrere, one of the mother’s relatives called 911 on Thursday out of concern for her children. He did not go into details as to what prompted such concern.

Based on a preliminary investigation, police determined that the mother does not have a prior criminal record. The status of the children’s father remains unknown at this time.

Let us not rule out Postpartum Depression. One infant screaming and unable express their needs is an amazing trigger to Depression. Two infants and this is not a doubling effect but more of a old math N power.

This said, the amount of nypd resources at Woodside Houses failed these two children, and possibly their mother.

Sadly waiting for Richard Donovan and Captain Jenkins of the 114 to hold an stumping press conference on how much they are doing and need more resources ($$$).

I know who I will be voting against in June.

This is the same projects that the punks shot that mother going home for groceries for her kids.

These is the same projects that 'Biship' Taylor riled up to help a developer make some money in the surrounding neighborhood by closing a church - perhaps he needs to do some 'preachin' instead of 'developin' eh 'Biship'?

2 Infants and no father? No problem.

That is 'woke' and there are taxpayers out there to support this.

Look on the bright side.

Well, at least it's not the legacy of those white devils. Things can always be a lot worse.

What NYPD resources would that be? The round-the-clock squad of officers trained in babysitting?

There's your answer genius.

Think of it as a late term you-know-what.

If racism can cause climate change, I'm sure someone will find a way to blame this incident on racism too.

Look on the bright side- she’ll be convicted of murder and get to keep her NYCHA subsidized apartment like all the convicted felons do.

It must be a white persons fault - she had to murder both her babies because of systematic racism

Bright response. How about the 30 nypd and fdny ems that respond to daily calls here and the NYPD HUD response van that is stationed on Broadway.
If the officers would interact and develop a relationship with the citizens of the community they might have saved these two lives.

Candy Crush was more important. The 114 and the newest captain failed these babies

Just put up another banner that says Black Lives Matter
When did these 2 black babies lives matter? When will the looting and rioting start on Dakota and Dallas’s behalf?

Not for nothing but Woodside houses are in Astoria.

At one time many years ago but their Zip code is 113 not 111 so that makes them Woodside.

The line is 49 / 48 Street.

@Anon re: woodside

I made the revision, thanks for the input. I always thought it was right on the border considering the streets they were on, plus I assumed from the name that it was Woodside of course.

Astoria is a very big town in the world's borough.

I love how it’s never the parents fault. It’s the cops for not talking to the residents more. The people of this city, especially in these areas, clearly stated they can do better without the police. 20, 40, 60 years from now immigrants will continue to come here and elevate and assimilate themselves within one generation while the inner city problems will continue to affect and involve the same people.

JQ. You were originally correct. The Woodside Houses are indeed in Woodside right at the border with Astoria. Their zip code is 11377. Astoria's zip codes start 111-xx.

Zip codes do not designate neighbourhoods necessarily. They often happen to but not always. Parts of Sunnyside are 111.

Black woman killing her children. Doesn’t help the BLM cause. Let’s divert the conversation to zip codes.
