The New York Post reported that a 6-year-old boy called his grandmother to say he was hungry, which alarmed the grandmother. She called the police and rushed to the child’s home with the mother’s boyfriend. They found the two children, aged 6 and 3, covered in blood.
Taylor Gosnell, a 35-year-old South Carolina mother, faces two counts of attempted murder after allegedly stabbing her young children roughly 50 times inside their Spartanburg home. The incident, which left both children with severe injuries, prompted a swift response from local authorities.
Deputies arrived at the family home to conduct a welfare check. Upon entering the residence, they discovered the 6-year-old and 3-year-old children alone and covered in blood. The scene inside the house was chaotic, as investigators reported finding blood throughout the property. Television sets and mirrors had been destroyed, resulting in glass and debris scattered across the floors.
Taylor Gosnell tried to escape.
The children are expected to survive, but the 3-year-old was so severely injured that doctors might have to amputate one of her arms.
