A Hillsboro mother dials 911 claiming she killed her 12-year-old daughter and now, that mother is behind bars, while yet another child fights for her life.
Following Friday night's events, Hill County Sheriff's Deputies are still trying to find out why 32-year-old, Debra Jeter would want to kill her own daughters.
Sheriff Jeffrey T. Lyon was paged to an abondoned house Friday night north of Hillsboro and when he arrived, Debra Jeter stood at the end of the driveway and surrendered to deputies.
Lyon says he was not prepared for what he saw inside the house saying, "it was just a very tragic horrific um heart gripping crime scene."
Sheriff's deputies found Jeter's daugher, 12-year-old Kelsee in the back bathroom of the abandoned home. Her sister was conscious, but in critical condition. Both girls had been stabbed.
Neighbors in the area were left stunned and horrified.
Sheriff Lyon says Jeter is going through a divorce, but seemed find hours before the murder.
Lyon says, "she had picked the children up at 6 on a friday for the court order and uh the father released the children to the mother and that was the last time that he saw his daughters."
Sheriff Lyon has spoken with the father who says he has no idea why Debra Jeter would do this.
Jeter's bond is det at $1.5 million for murder and attempted capital murder charges.
Friends of the family say Kelsee was a girl scout, an honor student and that she had just performed in her school musical, at Hillsboro Intermediate School.
