These 911 Tapes Show How Terrifying It Was When Christy Sheats Started Shooting at Her Daughters

From Cosmopolitan

Police have officially released recordings of the 911 calls made after a mom in Katy, Texas, began shooting at her two daughters last week. The woman, Christy Sheats, killed both of her children before she was fatally shot by police for refusing to drop her weapon.

Officials previously stated that Sheats had called a "family meeting" in their living room with her husband, Jason, and daughters, Taylor and Madison. She then began open firing at her children, eventually chasing them outside and continuing to shoot. Her husband later told a family friend that the killing was "about punishing [him]."

According to BuzzFeed,the first 911 call came from Christy Sheats's younger daughter, Madison, and the second came from her older daughter, Taylor. The Fort Bend County Sheriff's Office received multiple other calls, as well, including one from an anonymous neighbor who saw the attack from his window after Sheats chased her daughters outside.

Warning: These calls are extremely distressing and very difficult to listen to.
