A tragic incident unfolded in Louisiana when a woman was found dead in her home, with her two young daughters abducted shortly after and discovered in Mississippi. One of the children was found deceased, while the other was found alive. The suspect, who had previously dated the victim, was arrested in connection with the abduction and deaths.
The heartbreaking discovery was made when the body of the 4-year-old child was found near the victim’s car in a wooded area in Jackson. The 6-year-old child was found safe with the suspect in Mississippi. The Louisiana State Police issued an Amber Alert for the children after their mother, Callie Brunett, was reported missing from her home in Loranger.
The police are still investigating the case, and the cause of the mother’s death has not been released to the public. Chief Deputy Jimmy Travis of the Tangipahoa Parish Sheriff Office described the incident as an “unspeakable crime,” expressing condolences to the victims’ family. Sheriff Daniel Edwards also shared his sympathies, calling it a “horrendous tragedy.”
The suspect’s actions were condemned by Jackson Police Chief Joseph Wade, who labeled the incident as a “horribly tragic situation” caused by the cowardly actions of the perpetrator. The authorities are working closely with the Mississippi Bureau of Investigation’s human trafficking division to gather more information about the case.
In a disturbing twist, small animal cages were discovered at the wooded area where the children were found. It is believed that the suspect attempted to harm the children by leaving them in the secluded location. The community is in shock and mourning over the senseless loss of life in this devastating event. Our thoughts and prayers are with the victims’ family during this difficult time.
