A mom accusing of killing her two children's haunting Facebook post before the attack has resurfaced.
22-year old Kailey Erhart has been arrested for allegedly killing two of her children and seriously injuring a third on August 6.
Now, a prior post by the North Dakota mom on her Facebook seems to have taken on a chilling significance.
Erhart currently faces nine criminal charges, including Class AA felony murder, attempted murder and aggravated assault.
Erhart's Facebook page contains the quote 'Life's a dance you learn as you go' as her bio, with also reference to a Bible passage, specifically 1 John 1:9.
Reading the Bible, the passage in question reads: "If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just and will forgive us our sins and purify us from all unrighteousness."
Now, after the chilling attack on August 6, Erhart's reference to this Bibe passage has definitely taken on a haunting quality.
Police say that Erhart's three-year old and five-month old daughters died on August 6 after suffering 'wounds to their necks' at the family home in Mandan, North Dakota.
Her one-year old son survived the attack and underwent 'extensive' surgery in the hospital, though his current condition remains unclear.
Authorities claim that Erhart turned on her children after chasing her estranged husband and the kids' grandmother out of the family home with a knife, locking the door as she did so.
According to her husband, he managed to wrestle a firearm away from his wife before being locked outside.
When authorities arrived, cops stormed the house and discovered all three of Erhart's children unresponsive on the bedroom floor, all with injuries to their necks.
Allegedly, the investigators then found a blood-soaked Erhart in the kitchen, holding a knife up to her own throat.
Apparently, Erhart's husband was already in the process of divorcing her when the attack happened and had previously reported threats by his wife to hurt herself and the children to the police, an affidavit seen by Valley News Live reports.
The concerns led to Erhart being taken to a mental health facility within the last 12 to 18 months.
She was discharged on medication and allowed to be around her children, although Child Protective Services were aware of the previous threats.
Erhart is due back in court on October 6 and has not yet entered a plea. She told officers at the scene that she put the children to bed and believes their throats had been cut beforehand.
She claimed not to remember what happened, but acknowledged that she had been holding a knife when the cops arrived.
