Biography

Dorothy had been the caretaker of Jaden and Jorden (who were autistic) following the suicide of her daughter (the boys' mother) in 2017.

On April 4, 2019, she shot both boys to death and later overdosed as part of an attempted double murder-suicide. She ended up surviving, but she was arrested on the following day after police discovered that the 8-year-old twins were shot.

Dorothy admitted to killing her grandsons, and while her motive wasn't revealed, her former co-worker, Chandra McCord, stated in an interview that Dorothy had "fear of the future," and that she feared that she couldn't handle raising the boys on her own.

In 2020, she was found guilty on two counts of manslaughter and was sentenced to 21 years in prison.
