A Maryland woman is behind bars for the strangulation death of her 11-year-old daughter after previously killing the family’s pets in order to frighten the child, police in the Old Line State say.
Keyona Dillon, 34, stands accused of one count of murder in the first degree, according to the Baltimore County Police Department.
The allegations against the mother of four are gruesome and bizarre.
The defendant was arrested on Thursday after she went to a neighbor’s home in Middle River — a census-designated place and part of the broader Baltimore metro area. There, Dillon allegedly said her daughter, London Olsen, 11, was dead in the family’s basement.
