Mother films poisoning of her children with cameraphone

A tragedy and a first. According to Indonesia News Blog, a wealthy Indonesian woman who fell on hard times filmed her four children with her mobile phone after poisoning them, and then committed suicide – leaving a note saying she was taking them "to see heaven".

"The 35-year old woman recorded the dying moments of the children – aged 11 to one-and-a-half years old – with her mobile phone and the device was found near her head yesterday, detective Deky Hermansyah of the Malang city police said."
