The Phoenix mother had been transported to the hospital covered in blood with stab wounds to her neck and abdomen when police officers searching her house opened a closet to a grim discovery.
(FOX)- Inside, officers found the bodies of her three young sons.
Police discovered the dead boys — ages 2 months old and 5 and 8 years old — in a closet full of miscellaneous items. Phoenix police Sgt. Trent Crump said the youngest boy’s body was in a suitcase.
Crump said the children appeared to have been stabbed to death and “parts of their bodies were dismembered.”
The 29-year-old mother is in the hospital in critical condition with self-inflicted stab wounds. Police say she is the primary suspect and will face charges.
