An Indiana woman is accused of killing her two children after the two kids were found dead inside a car. The mother of the suspect said in a recent statement that she is not surprised with what her daughter is charged of as she described her as evil and crazy.
The woman, identified as Amber Pasztor, is facing murder charges. The two children were the subject of an Amber Alert issued on Monday in Elkhart, Indiana before their dead bodies were found. Aside from the two children, a 66-year-old man was also killed. The Allen County Coroner's Office identified the man as Frank Macomber and is believed to have been traveling with Pasztor when she abducted her children. Macomber died of gunshot wounds, Komo News reported. The two children died of asphyxiation.
The children were identified as 6-year-old Rene Pasztor and 7-year-old Liliana Hernandez. Police officials were called at the home where the two children had been living with their grandparents. Hours later, Amber approached an Elkhart police officer who was leaving the police station and told him about the two bodies in her car. The two children are believed to be those in the Amber alert, but their identities are yet to be confirmed via autopsies, which were scheduled on Tuesday.
Amber is now in custody at the Elkhart County Correctional Facility. She reportedly does not have legal custody over her children and it remains unclear what prompted her to abduct and kill her two kids. She also has one more child, a 3-year-old, who was not abducted.
The father of Amber has legal custody over the children as she reportedly has battled drug addiction. In July, she was charged for criminal trespassing. In September, she was charged with invasion of privacy.
People reported that the mother of Amber said that her daughter was crazy. The mother of Amber added, "I think her thought was, 'If she can't have them, nobody can.'" The children have been with the grandparents for a year now.
