An Irish mother living in the UK has admitted to killing her two children in a motorway crash while drunk.
35-year-old Mary McCann was driving on the M1 north of London when her vehicle crashed into the rear of a lorry.
Both four-year-old Lilly and 10-year-old Smaller died at the scene of the incident.
McCann then went on the run, avoiding a court hearing where she was charged on two counts of causing death by careless driving while under the influence of alcohol.

She had since been located and appeared before Aylesbury Crown Court on Wednesday.
The mother will be sentenced on April 25th this year.
