A Texas school teacher is accused of murdering her own children. Lisa Marie Smith has been charged with two counts of capital murder in the deaths of her sons. Authorities say Smith was upset over a custody battle with her former husband. They say she strangled the boys, and then tried to kill herself two days later. She's in jail, being held on suicide watch.
Bond is set at two million dollars.
The two boys were found dead, inside their burning home yesterday. Meanwhile Mayor Bowers wants to take another look at that pay raise council approved a couple of weeks ago. Bowers has called a special meeting for tomorrow morning to discuss the issue. City council approved raises for the mayor and council members, by just one vote, four to three. The vote came at a regular council meeting, but was not listed on the agenda.
