Sophia haines. Confessing to suffocating the children with a bed sheet. This is the last person i would think would do Something Like this to my son, to her daughter. He last saw her last week, she was a doting mother who didnt drink, smoke or suffer from mental conditions. Why she would take the life of her children is baffling. Always how is the baby . How is the kids . I dont see how anybody could have seen this coming. They were so sweet. I cant believe it. Yesterday afternoon haines called her relative in florida, and said come home now, when the relative arrive, she saw haines crying and the two children unresponsive on the bed. Haines was taken into custody and arrested and gave police no explanation for her actions. I cannot wrap my mind around it. We are not naming the 3yearold daughter or the father of that child has not been notified. Police tell me he is in jamaica and they are having a difficult time reaching him. Chad thanks.

There, looking into the eyes of the woman and her mother, they knew that the full meaning of the service that they had just performed. I followed up and i saw her mother. I got the a little emotional at first because at that moment it hit me that i might have made a difference in somebodyes life today and as a police officer, i have been doing this for 21 years, you dont get too many moments like that.
