large knive(s). From what I read she started with the kitchen butchers knife, and then (probably not doing as much damage as she wanted) left and came back with a "hunting knife", which are stronger and better designed for stabbing and killing. JMO
Hard to know. Reports do vary. This one says the 7 yr old left the note. Also says the 13 year old called her stepfather after stabbing the child. And the knife is described as the mother's "self-defense" knife. Definitely a tragedy.

I think there had to be some degree of denial, definitely.

She called the stepfather prior to 911, interesting. I’m surprised she didn’t just take off and run away without calling anyone…

If for some reason or other the parents were looking the wrong way, they wouldn't have seen the red flags. MOO

True. I know from experience within my family that people can and often do miss red flags even when they are clearly showing, through denial or self-protection, etc.

Why would a parent leave something like that accessible for one thing? And, the older kid seemed to know about it, which is another whole problem! It's like people that leave firearms accessible, there is no reason for it!

kitchen tools live in the kitchen? mine never were under lock and key, even when my children were younger? Sure they were kept up and out of reach of littles but my teens had access to them. At 13 I and my children after me already knew how to prep and cook certain meals and use those kitchen tools.
as to the hunting knife with serrated edge, I'm sure that was probably put up somewhere out of reach of littles but probably also not under lock and key.
Guns are weapons, knives are tools JMO

It's surprising to me the 13 year old knew where to quickly find the hunting knife when the kitchen knife "wasn't getting the job done." (Per a police detective) Various reports have described the hunting knife as the mother's "self-defense" knife. Supposedly it was kept in the laundry room. (Sounds like a weapon to me.)

It was a combat knife, as per the pictures in the article, and definitely a weapon.
How Long? A Two Hour Tour?
Someone ahead of me at grocery checkout was singing Gilligan's Island theme song, prompting me to to wonder about how long these parents were away from the house.
IIRC one of the MSM stories said -
Parents planned to go shopping/run errands for two hours (For kids their ages, seems reasonable under many or most circumstances).
But were they actually gone much, much, much longer?
May or may not be relevant.
Can someone pls refresh my memory about length of the parent's planned absence and/or actual absence w a LINK, not a paraphrase? Did LE comment on length of absence? TiA

"Police said the girls' parents left them at the home on Banner Avenue around 11:15 a.m. Saturday. A few hours later, an argument would lead to the older girl stabbing her sister multiple times."

Note about flushing the toilet led 13-year-old to fatally stab younger sister, police say
The teen is charged with murder and other crimes.
@MangoCove. Thx so much for posting the links w quotes. Terrific.
LE said parents left home around 11:15.
"the teen called 911 and police responded just after 1 p.m. "
I'm missed any ref to when the parents actually returned home. Regardless.
A tragedy all around. Hoping the teen gets help.
IDK how parents losing a child can ever cope, especially under circumstances like these.

But they were STILL gone at that time, so this still tells us nothing about how long they were actually left alone for. I would like to know how long after the 911 call did the parents return home.
Was emergency vehicle still at the home when they got back? Had the victim already been taken away? Was the suspect still at the home, perhaps waiting with LE? Or did the parents return home to an empty house? Surely someone in LE would've been left there to await their arrival, if both daughters had already been removed. Or maybe LE was able to reach the parents by phone and let them know they needed to return immediately due to an emergency situation? If that happened, we will never know how long the girls would have potentially been left alone. Not that it mattered in the end. Under 2 hrs was too long this time.

I didn't find anything specific about their return time, but it sounds like the parents were notified before police.
"Authorities said the teen stabbed the 7-year-old up to 10 times, before calling her stepfather and 911."
Prosecutor: Girl, 13, who stabbed 7-year-old sister may be sentenced as adult if convicted
The girl, 13, was initially charged as a juvenile. Authorities said "other facts" discovered in the case led to the change.

Oh, ok, I knew that, but I got confused and was thinking of her stepfather as someone who lived somewhere else, and the parents who were out that day as her mother and father, so that changes my whole understanding, thank you.I didn't find anything specific about their return time, but it sounds like the parents were notified before police.

So I can't imagine what she could possibly have said to stepdad to inform him she had just stabbed his daughter to death, but whatever it was, I assume he ordered her to call 911 and sped home, probably while also calling 911 himself on the way. Which could mean they all arrived near the same time. What a terrible day.

Taylor police believe mental illness played a role in the deadly stabbing.
“There is absolutely no doubt that the facts in this case are horrific. It is beyond disturbing that the alleged person responsible for the stabbing death of her seven-year-old sister is thirteen years old. We considered adult designating her which is not the same thing as trying her as an adult. It gives the judge the option of sentencing the respondent as a juvenile, or as an adult, or giving a blended juvenile sentence with an option of imposing an adult sentence if the juvenile is not rehabilitated. Our other option was to keep her in the juvenile system. We opted to do just that. Given her young age, the State would have seven years to diagnose, treat, and rehabilitate her until her mandatory release at age 21. Hopefully then she would not be a danger to others. While this is a difficult decision given these facts, it is the right thing to do in this case.”

How ‘flush toilet’ note led to Taylor girl stabbing 7-year-old sister to death with 2 knives
A note left in the bathroom allegedly led to a 13-year-old girl stabbing her sister to death over the weekend.
This is so tragic - and I know in this forum we see so many tragic things, but wow. The level of pain this family must be going through...I didn't find anything specific about their return time, but it sounds like the parents were notified before police.

I am cautious to assign blame. I do remember being 13, I do remember being around kids who were 13. There were a few incidents at school, when friends my age would explode in anger, unprovocted. Hormones, puberty, lack of frontal lobe development. However, we did not have access to hunting knives. I am eager to see where this case will fall in the current debate of parental responsibility when juvenile perpetrators commit crimes with weapons their parents SHOULD NOT have allowed them access to.
This is a tragedy. My only hope is that it will spread awareness, enough that even one kid's life will be saved by parents who become alarmed and start locking up their weapons.
(The fact that the girl became aware enough to call 911... Just MOO but I imagine the 13 yo snapping out of her rage, and realising what she has done. The lives she destroyed, including her own. Tragic.)
All MOO
