Mother Says Children Were Posessed By Demons

A woman on trial for killing her four daughters in Washington D.C. Her four daughters aged from 5 to 17, decomposing bodies were found in her home after it was searched by police. She said that they were posessed by demons and died while she was sleeping, the youngest first and then the oldest. When the medical examiner examined the children she said that they had been dead for at least 15 days. The mother said she did not call in the police or the health department to remove the bodies because she does not trust any government agencies. But evidence suggests that all of the children were strangled or stabbed to death. The mother, Banita Jacks is being tried for 3 counts of felony murder and 1 count of first degree murder while armed. If she is convicted she could be sent to jail for life.
