Mom's disturbing 911 call: "I just stabbed myself and I killed my two children"

MONTGOMERY COUNTY, Ind. – Newly released audio reveals the chilling moments when a woman told a 911 dispatcher that she killed her children, reports CBS affiliate WTTV.

In the audio, released Tuesday, a woman who identifies herself as Brandi Worley tells the dispatcher in a seemingly calm voice, “I just stabbed myself and I killed my two children.”

When the dispatcher asks Worley what caused her to do that, she replies, “My husband wanted a divorce and wanted to take my kids. And I don’t want him to have my kids.”

The dispatcher proceeds to ask Worley where she stabbed herself, and she tells him in the neck and there’s blood everywhere.

Worley is charged with two counts of murder in the deaths of her 7-year-old son and 3-year-old daughter. She pleaded not guilty to the charges Tuesday and is being held in jail without bail.
