Criminals will find any means to commit crimes, with or without firearms... Maybe we should register and/or ban "assault bathtubs."LinkMom charged with bathtub child murders
LAMAR, Colorado (AP) -- A woman accused of drowning her two young children in a bathtub before a failed attempt on her own life was arrested Saturday on murder charges.
Rebekah Amaya faces two counts of first-degree murder in the deaths of Grace Headlee, 4, and Gabriel Amaya, 5 months, according to Lamar Police Cpt. Rick Copess.
The coroner said both children drowned and determined the deaths were homicides, the first in Lamar in since 1992.
Amaya, a registered nurse, was being returned to Lamar from a Colorado Springs hospital, where she was treated after she cut her wrists in the suicide attempt.
