Articles labeled: mother killed twin

A new mother the second time around and apparently “depressed”, she decided to send her 2 week old babies to heaven by murdering them. Let’s see…where have we heard that story before? Perhaps from Andrea Yates who also drowned her kids to get rid of her “problems”.

Now how crazy can they be, given that she, like Andrea Yates, were “smart” enough not to kill themselves instead.

Hopefully, she can be depressed for the rest of her life in jail. If she thinks she’s depressed now, just wait until she’s secluded in a 4 x 7 cell. Good times. Good times.

Evans admitted to having trouble breast-feeding the boys Friday and then filling her tub halfway, according to the criminal complaint. She told investigators she put the fraternal twins in on their backs and took them out when they stopped moving.

“She did not attempt to remove them until they became lifeless,” the complaint said.

She told police she took David and Josiah Smith, who were born Jan. 4, out of the tub, put them on their sides on the bathroom floor and then put them in separate blankets. Josiah appeared to be coughing, but she doesn’t remember David coughing, the complaint said.

Her mother, Joyce Smith, then arrived home, went to the bathroom and asked, “What did you do? What did you do?” to which Evans didn’t respond, the complaint said. The grandmother then called 911.

David died at the scene, according to police.
