HUDSON OAKS, Texas — This is a developing story. Please refresh your page for more details

A relative found the bodies of a 23-year-old woman and her four small daughters hanging in a closet in their mobile home Tuesday morning, all of them dead but an 8-month-old, who was taken to a hospital, the sheriff said.

The woman's sister, who also lived in the Oak Hills mobile home park, about 25 miles west of Fort Worth, found the bodies, Parker County Sheriff Larry Fowler said.

He said the dead children were ages 5, 3 and 2.

The young survivor was taken to Cook Children's Medical Center in Fort Worth. There was no immediate word on the child's condition.

The deaths were under investigation.

Maybe -- but men tend to act out much more violently. Had they been shot or stabbed or beaten to death I'd agree with you, but hanging? Sounds more like Mom decided to check out and take the babies with her.

That was my first thought as well. Either way, very tragic.

Are Brazillion dollars worth more or less?

Still more to come on this. My mom is the domestic abuse admin for the county. This girl came to her and requested a restraining order a week before it happened. The case is still pending, as is legal to say.
