A grand jury indicted a Tampa mother Thursday on two charges of first-degree murder for allegedly shooting her teenage children to death because they were talking back.
Julie Schenecker, 50, was arrested Jan. 28 on preliminary charges, and the Hillsborough County grand jury formally charged her with two counts of premeditated first-degree murder. The charges could carry the death penalty.
Her attorney, public defender Robert Fraser, declined to comment. Her arraignment is set for Feb. 16.
Schenecker reportedly told detectives that she killed the teenagers for being "mouthy." She is being held without bail at the Hillsborough County jail.
Their father is an Army colonel who was in the Middle East when his children were killed.
