"A woman and her boyfriend were charged with first-degree murder Wednesday in the deaths of her three children, who drowned when their car plunged into a lake in September in what initially looked like a tragic accident.
Sheriff Roger Massey would not say how the car went down a boat ramp into Clinton Lake, killing the 6-year-old, 3-year-old and toddler inside.
Massey said authorities know what the motive was, but he would not provide details other than to say it did not involve life-insurance money.
Maurice Lagrone Jr., 28, and Amanda Hamm, 27, were each charged with three counts of first-degree murder for each death, Massey said. They were arrested separately Tuesday and were being held on $5 million bail."
Shades of Susan Smith. God, I can just imagine those poor kids, strapped in their carseats as water starts to pour into the car. Why in the hell would anyone be compelled, for whatever reason, to do something so evil?
