A Massachusetts mother, 49-year-old Janette MacAusland, faces murder charges after her two young children were found dead in their Wellesley home—she fled to Vermont and was arrested there. Her lawyer argues the case can’t move forward without the medical examiner’s official findings, but the judge denies bail. Authorities say she told her aunt she strangled the kids and tried to kill herself, referencing a family photo and claiming they were in bed together. The tragedy is compounded by an ongoing divorce with the children’s father, leaving the school community reeling from this devastating loss.
