A 47-year-old Missouri mother, Krista Roy, is accused of shooting her 16-year-old son, Carter Bennett, while he slept. Allegedly, the dying teenager called out, “Mommy, Mommy,” before her mother stabbed him to death while caressing him.

According to a release issued by the St. Charles Police Department (SCPD), the incident occurred on Monday, September 29. At around 10:57 a.m., SCPD responded to a Lightfoot Drive residence to conduct a welfare check on Carter.

As per KSDK, Carter’s friends hadn’t heard from him in days, so they asked the SCPD to check on him on September 27 and September 28, court documents said.

However, as police officers arrived at the residence, they quickly noticed a foul smell coming from inside the house. Upon entering, they found Carter Bennett dead in his bed.
