Atlanta Mom Arrested For Burning Her Children in Oven
A mother from Atlanta, Georgia allegedly killed her sons by burning them in an oven, multiple reports claimed.
The Atlanta Journal-Constitution obtained an arrest warrant for 24-year-old Lamora Williams after she reportedly placed her two-year-old Ke-Yaunte Penn and one-year-old son Ja'Karter Penn in an oven and turned it on, causing them to die.
Based on the arrest warrant, Williams allegedly put her sons in the oven between the midnight of Thursday up to 11 p.m. on Friday last week. She then called the father of her kids Jameel Penn through video call to show him that something terrible is happening inside her apartment home in southwestern Atlanta.

Despite the burn marks found on the children's bodies, the police are reportedly waiting for the results of the autopsy to determine their real cause of death.
The suspect's mother Brenda Williams told WGCL earlier this week that she cannot believe that her daughter is in her right mind if she really burned her kids to death.
"My daughter is a sick person if she did what I think she did," Brenda stated. "Mora wasn't right, she hasn't been right and what happened three months ago, that the kids' father left her, I told him something tragic is going to happen. She's going to do something to those kids, she's going to do something to herself."
The suspect was said to have called 911 to report the incident Friday night and claimed that she left her three sons including three-year-old Jameel Penn Jr. with a cousin so she can work. She also claimed that the cousin left the kids all alone after that.
Jameel Jr. was unharmed after the incident. However, the local authorities refused to believe the story that she left her sons in the care of a babysitter.
At the moment, Williams had been detained at the Fulton County jail where she will remain without bond.
