READING, Pa.—A Pennsylvania woman was convicted of killing her two young children, who were found hanging in the basement of their home five years ago.

Lisa Snyder, 41, was convicted Tuesday of two counts of first-degree murder in the September 2019 deaths of 4-year-old Brinley and 8-year-old Conner, who were taken off life support and died three days after they were found in the home in Albany Township, about 60 miles (95 kilometers) northwest of Philadelphia.
