Shocking : Mother Slashes Throats Of Her 3 Crying Children To Keep Them Quiet


 A woman has arrested for slashing the throats of her two-year-old daughter and six-month-old twins said she tried to kill her crying babies so they wouldn’t disturb her husband, Daily Mail reports.

 Christina Booth, 29, said she hit ‘breaking point’ when she put her children to bed and all three began crying at her home in Olympia, Washington.

 And Mrs Booth, who suffers from postpartum depression, told police that she went downstairs and grabbed a kitchen knife before slashing their throats because her husband, Army Staff Sergeant Thomas Booth, got ‘very annoyed when the children cry’ and if she killed the children ‘the house would be quiet for Thomas’.


‘During the interview, Christina broke down crying several times, yelled about Thomas never helping with the kids and vomited once. Christina made the comment “they will be quiet now” several times,’ detectives wrote.

 Sgt Booth told police that when he went upstairs he found his wife in her underwear and the children gushing blood.

 He said he screamed at his wife to call 911 while he wrapped his children’s wounds to stop the bleeding.

Detectives said their investigation shed light on a family in stress.

 Olympia police Lieutenant Jim Costa said that conversations with Sgt Booth and neighbours had shed light on a family in stress and ‘friction in the household’.

‘A lot of dynamics pushed [Mrs Booth] over the brink,’ he said.

A judge set bail at $3million for her three counts of attempted murder.

The children were said to be stable on Sunday following surgery at hospital. They have been placed in custody of state Child Protective Services.

ISIS Beheads Another British Hostage - Report


 Dreaded Terrorist group ISIS, has released a new video showing the execution of British aid worker David Cawthorne Haines.

 This would be the third time the organization, which has seized large swaths of Iraq and Syria, beheaded a captive and released a video of the execution, intending to send a message to Western nations. 

 Haines, 44, like others in taped executions by the terror group, was forced in the new video to read a script in which he blamed his death on British Prime Minister David Cameron and the British government’s decision to join the U.S. in its battle against ISIS. A black-clad, masked militant holding a knife then says the execution is in retaliation for Britain’s decision to supply arms to Kurdish fighters battling ISIS in Iraq. 

After the murder, another captive is shown and the executioner warns Cameron "you ... will have the blood of your people on your hands,” if the U.K. continues to ally with the U.S. in its campaign against the group. 

 Britain had recently said it would send machine guns and ammunition to Iraq to help that government battle the militants, and it is weighing whether to participate along with the U.S. in possible airstrikes in Syria against the terror group. Cameron called the execution "an act of pure evil." The prime minister said:
"This is a despicable and appalling murder of an innocent aid worker. It is an act of pure evil. My heart goes out to the family of David Haines who have shown extraordinary courage and fortitude throughout this ordeal. We will do everything in our power to hunt down these murderers and ensure they face justice, however long it takes," Cameron added.

Haines, a father of two, was abducted in early 2013 in Syria while working for an aid group. ISIS had released a video Sept. 2 showing the beheading of American journalist Steven Sotloff, who was kidnapped in Syria in August 2013. Another American journalist, James Foley, was executed and a video was released Aug. 19. Source
