Theresa Cross
 

Theresa Cross aka Jimmie Knorr. A mother of three sons and three daughters, she wounded one daughter with a gun, and when the daughter wasn't dead after a few weeks, she tried to remove the bullet. The attempted surgery left the daughter near death. This kind mother put the other daugher in a closet and told the other children not to feed her. Eventually, the kid died and her remains were just dumped.

Another daughter was beaten to death, and the two corpses were taken up to the mountains and, with the help of her teenage sons, burned with a pile of trash. During her trial it came out that she was acquitted in the murder of her former husband years before. The last and youngest daughter was the one to finally get the authorities to investigate and believe what she was telling them, on her second attempt.
