Mum confesses to suffocating her two-year-old twin daughters before their lifeless bodies were discovered in the backseat.



 A mother accused of suffocating her twin 2-year-old daughters to death has admitted guilt, as reported by New York officials.


In June 2019, Tenia Campbell's mother called 911, stating that her 28-year-old daughter was "driving around in the family van and threatening to kill her daughters," according to a December 13 news release from the Suffolk County District Attorney.


Officers were dispatched to the areas between Medford and Montauk to locate Campbell, and an East Hampton police officer observed the van with Campbell nearby, according to the district attorney.


Upon approaching the van, the twins were discovered "dead in their car seats," with Campbell later confessing to smothering them, according to officials.



District Attorney Raymond A. Tierney expressed sorrow, stating, "This is such a sad and tragic case. Those two little girls looked to this defendant, their mother, for protection and love. Instead, she executed them." He added, "The defendant has one thing those twin girls will never have again: life. But now, this defendant will get to live out the majority of her life behind bars."



Campbell pleaded guilty to two counts of murder, and a sentencing conference is scheduled for January, according to the release.
