US Mum suffocated two kids before faking car accident - police

THE mother of two young children found dead in a river confessed to suffocating them before faking a car accident.
Orangeburg County Sheriff Larry Williams said Shaquan Duley, of Orangeburg, South Carolina, was initially arrested and charged with leaving the scene of an accident.
But local authorities continued investigating elements of her story that they believed did not add up.
She will be arraigned today and charged for the murder of her two boys, aged 18 months and two years old, who were found strapped in their car seats inside a submerged Chrysler sedan in the Edisto River early on Monday.
Duley left the scene and walked almost 1.6 kilometres before she flagged down a passing motorist to call the police as she did not have a mobile phone, Mr Williams said.
She originally reported the incident to police as a car accident.
Unemployed Duley struggled to financially take care of her children, and they all lived with her mother, Mr Williams said. Duley also has a five year-old who is in the care of the grandmother.
Mr Williams described the grandmother, whose name was not released, as a “firm individual who believed in values.”
Mother and daughter reportedly had a dispute the night before the deaths. The alleged murders were believed to be “a direct response,” to the alleged dispute, he added.
“[Duley] was fed up with her mother saying she wasn’t taking care of her children,” he added.
The father of the children has not yet been located and seemingly was not involved in their lives. Duley “was more or less being mother and father of the children.”
