A father and daughter were in a relationship for four years and ‘walked around hand-in-hand’, locals have revealed after the bodies of three newborn babies were found rotting in the basement of their house.
Piotr Gierasik, 54, and Paulina Gierasik, 20, are facing life in prison for murder and incest after the babies’ remains were discovered in shallow graves and wrapped in plastic bags at the property in the village of Czerniki, in northern Poland.
Colleagues of Paulina at a cake shop in the neighbouring village of Stara Kiszewa have now told how her father ‘shaved her head so that other boys wouldn’t look at her’ and that she looked up to him ‘as if he were God’.
The father and daughter – who are said to have ‘lived like a couple’ – were each charged with multiple counts of murder and each of incest.
It comes after the first two babies were found on Friday but further investigations revealed a third body in an ‘advanced state of decomposition’ on Saturday.
Two of the infants belonged to Paulina, investigators said, and the mother of the third is her sister.
