Man allegedly confesses to killing mother of his children on Facebook

MEMPHIS, Tenn. — A family is mourning and questioning the death of a Memphis mother who was shot and killed in Frayser Saturday morning after the father of her children allegedly confessed to her killing in a Facebook post.

The man the family says is responsible confessed to the shooting on Facebook, but tonight, the family is furious, because he still walks free.

ORIGINAL STORY: Woman dead, man detained after Frayser shooting

In a now-deleted Facebook post that had been shared almost 6,600 times, a man appeared to confess to the shooting of the mother of his children and said he mistook her for someone breaking into his home.

Her family members say they aren’t buying it.

“I know for a fact that she announced herself or she told him that she was on the way over there. I don’t think it was an accident at all,” said a family member.

Memphis Police say officers responded to a home in the 1400 block of Alta Vista Avenue in Frayser just before 5 a.m. Saturday, where they found a woman dead.
