Texas Mom Stabs 5 Kids, Kills 3
The Ellis County Sheriff's Office stated on Facebook last Friday regarding a visit by state CPS in Italy, Texas, to take the children from the mother's custody. A call by a social worker on the case to the Italy PD coming from the county 911 dispatch was received. They found that 25-year-old Shamaiya Deyonshana Hall had killed her three children.
Texas CPS told ABC 8 WFAA that all five were the suspect's children. Those killed are a boy, 6, and a twin boy and girl, 5, seen lifeless by authorities on the scene. But hope came with the survival of a boy, 4, and a 13-month-old girl sent to the hospital for treatment.
Hall was immediately taken into custody by the police and was charged with triple counts of capital murders and a bond of $2 million set for her.
Initially, the Ellis County Sheriff's office had not mentioned any connection to the suspect and her victims. An aggrieved relative of the victims, Shamelia Anderson, commented they are angels now. An outlet covering the case stated the five children were taken from the mother by the CPS and placed in a relative's care prior to the knife attack.
A statement from Texas CPS to the media says the tragedy is shocking and unthinkable how it happened. Indicated that it would cooperate with police to investigate the crime.
Texas Child Protective Services Was Too Late to Save Victims

He told the press after giving specifics related to the case for the first time in public. Made it clear nothing is dangerous to the local community and asked to pray for all those involved.
