Mum, 45, denies murdering her two young sons after bodies found by their father
A MUM has denied murdering her two young sons after their bodies were found by their father.
Kara Alexander, 45, is accused of killing Marley Thomas, five, and two-year-old Elijah Thomas in Dagenham, East London.
The boys' bodies were discovered by their dad in December last year after he showed up at the home.
Alexander told him their boys were sleeping upstairs, but when he checked on the youngsters he found they were not breathing.
The mum today appeared in London's Old Bailey, wearing a white jacket, and denied two counts of murder.
The prosecutor previously told the court Marley and Elijah were last seen alive in CCTV footage on the afternoon of December 15.

Police were rushed to the London home at 2pm the next day, after their father forced his way into the home and discovered his sons cold to touch.
The prosecutor said the father quickly phoned emergency services.
Paramedics raced to the home and confirmed the boys were dead.
A three-week trial is set to start on July 10.
