The 911 call came in around midnight. A woman named Cynthia was screaming that someone was in her home and she had a gun. When officers arrived at the house in what appears to be a small Texas town, they didn't find a home invasion in progress. Instead, they found a seventy-nine-year-old woman climbing out a broken window, covered head to toe in blood, running down the middle of the street. "She's covered in blood," one officer shouts on body camera footage. "I don't know if she's covered in her own blood or she's covered in somebody else's." The officers tackle her in the road. She is disoriented, rambling. At one point she says, "I went in there and I murdered her because when I put my cleaner..." The sentence trails off. Inside the neighbor's house, police find a single deceased female victim in the front living room. An empty shotgun shell casing lies on the floor. The scene is chaotic, and the suspect is a grandmother who, moments earlier, had been the one calling for help.
