The mother of two children found shot to death in Kenton, Tennessee earlier in June has been charged in their deaths.

According to KYTN, The Tennessee Bureau of Investigation said 32-year-old Jessica Quarles was identified by authorities as the person responsible for the murders.

The Obion County Grand Jury returned an indictment on Monday for the shooting deaths of one-year-old Landrie Harris and 11-year-old McKenna Young at their home June 13th in Kenton, just south of Union City.

Quarles was taken to a Memphis hospital after sustaining stabbing injuries in the incident.

She was arrested Monday and taken to the Obion County Jail without bond.
