A woman admits to using false names to adopt 11 disabled children in New York City and rake in more than $1 million in subsidies over two decades.

Judith Leekin agreed to forfeit the subsidy money as she pleaded guilty to federal fraud charges Tuesday. She did not make any admissions in a separate abuse case in Florida.

She is accused of beating and starving the children in her Florida home. They moved to that state in 1998.

The 63-year-old Leekin also admitted she sent officials a phony report card documenting a child's progress.  She could face up to eight years in prison on the federal mail and wire fraud charges.
