Overview
- Investigators say Romelus, 31, is accused of shooting her four children in a car at an Angleton gas station early Saturday, killing a 13-year-old boy and a 3-year-old girl.
- Two other children, ages 8 and 9, were flown to Houston hospitals and remain in stable condition, according to the Brazoria County Sheriff’s Office.
- Court documents quote Romelus saying, “Kill them all,” and claiming she “called the devil,” with deputies describing her interview responses as not making sense.
- She faces two counts of murder and two counts of aggravated assault with a deadly weapon and is being held in the Brazoria County Jail on $14 million bond.
- Authorities say the investigation extends to her Montgomery County residence, and DFPS confirms prior contact with the family and a new review, with custody decisions for the surviving children pending.
