A California mother was charged with murder in the deaths of her three young children, the Los Angeles County District Attorney’s Office announced Monday.
Liliana Carrillo, 30, was initially arrested and charged April 10 on suspicion of carjacking a motorist in Kern County. Authorities said she had fled after killing her daughters Joanna, 3, and Sierra, 6 months, and her son, Terry, 2.
The children’s bodies were discovered by their grandmother in an apartment in the Reseda section of Los Angeles.
