Mother to 911 dispatcher: My 3 kids are dead

Florida mother tells dispatcher she's killed her three children and preparing to take her own life.

(WESH) Palm Bay, Florida police released photos and videos Thursday of the grim scene surrounding the murder of three young children, allegedly at the hands of their mother.

Investigators said body cam footage from March 20 show Jessica McCarty, 33, being arrested by police minutes after they said she killed Laci, 7, Philip, 6, and 6-month-old Christopher Swist.

A suicide note was also found, police said. The note said in part "I'm so sorry for what I had to do. I had no other choice."

In the video, McCarty is shot by officers repeatedly with non-lethal bean bag rounds after she failed to drop a knife.
