On May 18, 2017, 8-year-old Khmorra Helton of Dayton, Ohio, was shot in the head and later died at Dayton Children’s Hospital. Her 6-year-old brother, Kaiden Helton, was also critically injured in the same incident and died a few days later. Both children were hurt at their home on Lori Sue Avenue.

Their mother, Claudena Helton, was arrested and charged with two counts of attempted murder and four counts of aggravated assault. She pleaded not guilty by reason of insanity. Psychological evaluations produced conflicting opinions, but a judge ultimately found her legally insane at the time of the shootings and ordered her committed to Summit Behavioral Healthcare in Cincinnati for treatment. A six-month review was scheduled to monitor her progress.

County children services had been investigating the family before the shootings, and neighbors described Helton and her children as appearing happy and well adjusted. Does anyone have information about the family or the events leading up to May 18, 2017?
