TAMPA news 9
The 50-year-old woman accused of killing her two teenage children heads to a Tampa courtroom Saturday.
Julie Schenecker was booked into jail Friday night on charges of first degree murder.
The Tampa Police Department said she confessed to the crimes.
According to police, Julie Powers Schenecker shot and killed her two children, Calyx Powers Schenecker, 16, and Powers Beau Schenecker, 13.
Officials began investigating the incident Friday morning after a call came in from Schenecker's mother, who lives in Texas. She told detectives she was concerned that she could not reach her daughter who she believed was depressed, after receiving an email indicating that.
Then, when police responded to Schenecker's home in the 16000 block of Royal Park Court in Tampa Palms, they found the two children deceased.
Police said they found the mother on the back patio covered in blood, her son shot to death in the garage, and her daughter dead upstairs. They also found a note describing how she planned to kill her children and then herself.
Investigators said Schenecker told them she was the one responsible for the deaths of her children.
"She had admitted to committing those crimes and taking the lives of her two children," Laura McElroy of the Tampa Police Department said. "She described the crimes in detail to our detectives."
Counselors were brought out to the home for officers after one discovered what they described as a 'horrific and gruesome crime scene.'
Police said around 7 p.m. Thursday, Schenecker armed herself with a .38-caliber pistol she had just purchased over the weekend.
Detectives said the daughter was shot in the back of the head while she was doing her homework and the son was found shot twice in the head in an SUV in the garage. Officials also found a note in which it was written had planned to kill her children and then herself.
"The children never saw it coming -- one was shot from behind, one was shot from the side," McElroy said. "We don't believe the children knew that their mother meant to harm them."
Investigators are still on scene trying to figure out any sort of motivation behind the children's deaths.
"She did tell us that they talked back, they were mouthy and that she was tired of it, but I don't think that is going to be a reason any of us can understand of how you can take the life of your child," McElroy said.
Neighbors surrounded the home, shocked to hear what had happened.
"It's doubly disturbing to me that someone could do this to their child or children, so yes, it's very disturbing," one neighbor said.
Schenecker was visibly shaking as she was taken to the Orient Road Jail, where she now sits, facing two counts of first-degree murder.
Schenecker is married to Parker Schenecker, 48, a U.S. Army colonel who is currently stationed in Qatar. He is expected to return to the Bay area next week.
About the teenage victims
Calyx Schenecker, 16, was a sophomore at King High School, where the principal spoke out after her murder, calling her 'an outstanding student.'
Calyx was on the track team and the speech and debate team, as well as a member of the IB program and Harry Potter Club.
The principal of the high school said she last saw Calyx Thursday in a Spanish class.
"Yes, she was in the IB program, a great young lady, an outstanding student, if you wanted a daughter, that's who you would want," the principal said.
School officials said they did not break the news to students during school hours because nothing had been made official yet. However, they are planning to have grief counselors at the school on Monday.
Powers 'Beau' Schenecker, 13, was in the eighth grade at Liberty Middle School.
I never had a smart mouth still don't, but this is some screwed up stuff These kids had to have known their mom was messed up they just didn't know how much.
Our Constitution was made only for a moral and religious people. It is wholly inadequate to the government of any other.

i knew a woman (knew her for 5 years, got to know her well) who shot her 2 kids (4 year old twin boys) in the head, daddy in the Navy, she was pissed off he wouldn't babysit while she went out. she shot one, chased the other baby down and shot him.
got away with a goddamn plea when she should be on death row.
The Tampa woman accused of killing her two teenage children will remain in jail.
Julie Powers Schenecker made a brief appearance in court Monday morning and was denied bail. Schenecker was released from Tampa General Hospital on Sunday, and transported back to the Hillsborough County Jail.
Schenecker, 50, has been charged with first-degree murder and will be the subject of more doctor examinations in the furture.
According to Tampa police, Schenecker was taken to the hospital late Friday to treat a pre-existing medical condition. RIGHT. FUCKING NUTSINBRAIN. WILL KEEP HER OFF DEATH ROW.
LC,....got some info and pics about this fucking nutcase.
You usually have much better inside info and pics about the society's lowlifes than the news outlets...
I dont know how Cops handle the urge to just take these unbelievable idiots out instead of bringing them in.
I watched her being taken down the hall by the big black cop, she was shivering and had a really weird look on her face, walking funny and especially scary looking. She looked at the camera once and a chill went down my spine.
these poor kids never had a chance with a psychotic mother. and i wonder what meds/drugs may be involved from the looks of her.
TAMPA BAY 9 --
Authorities said the New Tampa woman accused of killing her teenage children showed signs of impairment following an accident in November.
Julie Powers Schenecker, 50, is currently in jail on charges she fatally shot her son and daughter on Friday.
On Monday, the Florida Highway Patrol released a report from an accident on Nov. 8, 2010.
According to the report, Schenecker was heading east on Fowler Avenue when she crashed into a trailer pulled by a vehicle that had slowed to make a right turn onto Jefferson Road.
The responding troopers said Schenecker had dilated pupils that did not react to light and that she had "mush-mouthed speech."
Schenecker, who was injured in the crash, was taken to University Community Hospital for treatment before officers could perform any further field-sobriety tests.
After the accident scene was cleared, the trooper went to the hospital for a blood draw, but Schenecker had already checked out, the report said.
Schenecker was charged with careless driving.
On Monday, she was denied bond for the charges of first-degree murder she is facing in the deaths of her children.
Previous altercations, according to reports
A Tampa Police Department report indicates officers responded to Julie Powers Schenecker's New Tampa home in early November.
Officers responded to the home after reports of an altercation between Schenecker and her 16-year-old daughter Calyx.
According to the report, mother and daughter argued during a car ride home from a New Tampa Publix on November 2. Officers stated in the report that the argument started when Julie Schenecker looked in her daughter's Publix bag to see what she purchased and Calyx told her to stay out of her business.
According to the report, Calyx said "You're disgusting," and "You're not my parent," to her mother. Schenecker said she became upset and backhanded her daughter in the face three times, the report states.
Also in the report: "(Calyx) Schenecker then drove home as her mom was sitting in the front passenger seat. The younger Schenecker claimed she said something she should not have and she now regrets it. This is when her mom began to hit her with an open hand on her face for approximately 30 seconds.''
"(Calyx) Schenecker said she was wearing sunglasses during this incident and did not get any injuries. She claimed when she got hit her face was red."
The mother was not arrested due to lack of evidence.
The report also stated that Calyx told a counselor that her mother had hit her on a previous occasion about a month earlier, causing her mouth to bleed.

I would have bitch slapped her for that one, too.
I just wouldn't have done all the other stuff. Sounds like her kids lost respect for her. You can demand respect when they are little, but you have to earn it when they are older.

it's going to be tough to mount an insanity defense when it was premeditated...she bought the gun days before. and she left a note with her plan to kill them and herself. only they nearly always chicken out on killing themselves after they murder the kids.
ST. Pete Times:
TAMPA — Julie Schenecker was sick of her teenage children talking back to her, police say, so last week she bought a .38-caliber pistol and planned their murder and her suicide.
She shot her 13-year-old son Thursday evening after driving him home from soccer practice. Then she walked upstairs and shot her 16-year-old daughter in the back of the head as she did homework, an arrest affidavit states.
With their blood on her clothing, the 50-year-old mother remained at the Tampa Palms house all night. Police didn't arrive until the next morning, after Schenecker's mother called them from Texas, worried because she couldn't reach her daughter, whom she believed was depressed.
Schenecker admitted to killing her children, Calyx Schenecker, 16, and Powers Beau Schenecker, 13, police said. She showed no remorse.
Though Schenecker cooperated Friday, police spokeswoman Laura McElroy said no explanation could help people truly understand why it happened.
"She did tell us that they talked back and they were mouthy," she said.
The children's father, Army Col. Parker Schenecker, 48, was informed Friday that his wife killed their children, McElroy said. He is stationed at Central Command at MacDill Air Force Base and was in the Middle East.
Neighbors said they've seen police cars at the home at 16305 Royal Park Court before, though not often.
The Department of Children and Families said it investigated the family about two months ago after getting a complaint. The tip was determined to be unfounded and the case was closed. Spokesman Terry Field said he couldn't elaborate.
Several out-of-state family members declined to comment Friday, but neighbors and school officials described the children as bright, polite and athletic.
"Calyx was a very sweet girl, always soft spoken, always quiet — a real sweetheart," neighbor Seema Jain said. "I just can't comprehend why this has happened to them."

Parker Schenecker met Julie Powers in Munich, Germany, where they were both stationed in the late '80s and early '90s.
She worked as a Russian linguist for the Army, collecting intelligence for European agencies by interviewing refugees coming from the Eastern Bloc, said Tim Fredrikson, who served with her.
Parker was a rising intelligence officer who had graduated cum laude with a French degree from Washington and Lee University, where the school yearbook is named the "Calyx."
In Munich, Julie organized and coached a volleyball team of officers, said K.C. Dreller, another intelligence officer who worked with her.
"She was super good at it," said Dreller, 49. "I imagine she was super good at everything she did. Anybody that was in that field was a Type A personality."
The couple married and had two children, Calyx in Germany and Powers, who went by "Beau," in Honolulu.
The military family moved a lot, and Parker Schenecker studied at several military schools, including the U.S. Army Command and General Staff College and the U.S. Army War College, according to a 2010 bulletin on distinguished alumni published on his high school's website.
The newsletter also said he was promoted to colonel in 2006 and was mainly responsible for the National Security Agency's support to military operations.
About three years ago, the family landed in Tampa.
Parker is assigned to CentCom's intelligence directorate and has been stationed there for more than two years, said spokesman Lt. Col. Mike Lawhorn. He was on a temporary duty assignment overseas the past few days.
Julie Schenecker, who is no longer in the Army, stayed home with their children. She took shifts driving in the neighborhood's King High School carpool and often referred to the struggles of parenting in seemingly light-hearted Facebook posts.
On May 7, a friend wrote, "Happy Mother's/Hallmark day to all the mothers. You are more brave than I. Not sure how you do it, but glad you do."
Julie responded: "some days, not sure how we do it, either!! :-)"
On Sept. 23, a friend posted on his profile: "Hold yourself to a higher standard than anybody else expects of you."
Julie commented: "i needed that advice today — have a 16 yr old daughter!"

Beau attended Liberty Middle School and played soccer. The blond-headed boy could often be found playing basketball, street hockey or other games with friends in the cul-de-sac.
Calyx was in the 10th grade in the pre-International Baccalaureate program at King High. She was a talented artist, took part in speech and debate and formed a Harry Potter fan club.
Principal Carla Bruning described her as an excellent student who was popular, sweet and enthusiastic.
"She was a great kid, the kind you would want to clone," Bruning said.
Gary Bingham, who coached Calyx in cross country and track, called her "the fastest freshman I ever had."
She was quirky, he said, a girl fascinated by dead bugs and funny-looking leaves on the running trails. She was easy-going, bubbly and smart.
At track practice Thursday afternoon, Calyx, a distance runner with long legs, decided to also give hurdles a try.
"She went over a hurdle and fell face first," Bingham said. "She got up just laughing."
Bingham expected to see his runner again at a 5K race today. Instead, he consoled his track team Friday and thought of Calyx's father.
"He leaves here with a family and comes back with nothing," Bingham said.

The scene Friday morning was ghastly. Beau was still in the van, Calyx by the computer. It didn't look like they struggled. "The children never saw it coming," McElroy said.
Inside the house, police found a detailed note that explained how their mother planned to kill them, then herself. As they processed the scene, the department's Critical Incident Stress Management team was on hand to counsel the investigators, all parents.
Schenecker told police she shot her son in the head "for talking back to her" as she drove him to soccer practice, an arrest affidavit states.
At about 3:30 p.m., authorities led her from Tampa police headquarters. She wore a white plastic outfit, the type given to suspects when their clothing is seized as evidence.
She did not answer questions from reporters and mumbled to herself as deputies escorted her into the Orient Road Jail.
She shook uncontrollably, and deputies took her to the medical unit to be screened, said Sheriff's Office spokesman Larry McKinnon.
The Tampa Palms mother accused of murdering her two teenage children will spend 23 hours of each day in a medical confinement cell at the Falkenberg Road Jail.
Hillsborough County deputies brought 50-year-old Julie Schenecker to the jail after she was denied bond Monday morning.
"She is in confinement in the infirmary in a cell by herself, and she'll stay that way," said Col. Jim Previtera, who is the commander of the detention center.
Schenecker, who was visibly shaking after arrest, is suffering from an undisclosed medical problem.
Col. Previtera said she'll be looked after by doctors at the jail's infirmary. The Faulkenberg jail houses the largest infirmary on Florida's west coast.
"It's basically a small hospital," Col. Previtera said.
However, the medical facility at the jail has very little access to the outside world. There are no televisions or newspapers.
Previtera said Schenecker will be able to leave her cell for one hour each day during recreation time. That's when she'll get a chance to take a shower, use the phone or go outdoors.
TAMPA --
New documents describe the scene Tampa police officers encountered when they walked into the home of a woman accused of murdering her two teenage children last week.
The search warrant return, which was released by the Tampa Police Department, indicates Tampa police officers went into the family's home in Tampa Palms and found 50-year-old Schenecker, unconscious in the screened-in pool area behind the house.
Police woke Schenecker, who was wearing a robe caked with dried blood, and sat her down at a table inside the home, the report said.
Teenagers' bodies found in the house
While one officer spoke to Schenecker, the other went upstairs to check on the children. There the officer found the body Calyx Schenecker, 16, lying on a bed, covered with a blanket, the report said.
A large amount of blood was pooled around the girl's head, and the officer noticed her body was cool to the touch, investigators said.
Officers continued to search the house until they found the family's van parked in the garage. Inside the van was Beau Schenecker, 13, who was also covered with a blanket, the report said. He had suffered upper body trauma, and was also dead, police said.
Investigators later seized several items from the house, including several live bullets and an instruction manual for a handgun from the master bedroom, and five spent shell casings from the master bathroom.
