A Texas woman has been charged with two counts of capital murder after her two sons, aged 21 and 15, were shot at their Waxahachie home and later died from their injuries, according to the Ellis County Sheriff's Office. An arrest affidavit obtained by FOX 4 says she allegedly told deputies: 'I shot both my kids.'
Colleen Nichole Lemmon, 42, was taken into custody after deputies responded to an emergency call in the 900 block of Big Sky Drive at about 4.13am on Thursday, 1 October 2026. Christopher Scott Pitre, 21, died at the scene, while his younger brother was taken to hospital in critical condition and later died from his injuries.
