A mum who fed her two daughters sleeping gummies and shot them dead in their beds will have to spend 78 years in jail before being considered for release, and will most likely died behind bars.
Veronica Youngblood, 37, from Virginia, US, has been convicted of two counts of first-degree murder and two counts of use of a firearm after murdering 15-year-old Sharon Castro and five-year-old Brooklynn Youngblood at their flat in August, 2018.
The mum shot dead her daughters after a dispute with her estranged husband Ronald Youngblood amid concerns her five-year-old daughter was going to move to Missouri with him.
