An Indiana woman who admitted to abducting her two children and smothering them to death has been sentenced to 130 years in prison.
Thirty-year-old Amber Pasztor, of Fort Wayne, received 55 years for each murder count, with an additional 10-year enhancement on each charge, Fox 59 reported.
She told the Elkhart County judge she was sorry before she received the sentence.
Pasztor had pleaded guilty but mentally ill to the two murder counts in a plea agreement.
She will also undergo mental health treatment before starting her sentence.
Pasztor raised suspicions when she abducted her children — Lilliana Hernandez, 7, and Rene Pasztor, 6 — from their custodial grandparents’ home on September 26, 2016.
Their bodies were found the same day inside a car she stole from a 66-year-old former neighbour, Frank Macomber, who authorities believe she also killed.
Pasztor admitted to police she suffocated her children to “keep them safe” and “usher them onto heaven,” according to Fox 59.
She was also charged for the shooting death of Macomber.
