Yet Another Lindsay Clancy Disciple? Texas Woman Kills Sons.

I don’t know about you, but it seems as if every day lately, there is another mom in the news who has killed or harmed her children. On Friday, I wrote about the Texas mom who shot her four-year-old daughter on a day when a judge awarded custody of the child to the father. The little girl’s father was on his way to pick her up that evening when the stepfather and babysitter heard the gunshots from downstairs.

We can be thankful that this woman also shot herself and died later at the hospital, so we won’t have to sit through another ridiculous trial.

According to a local Texas ABC affiliate, on Thursday, deputies were called to a home around 4:13 a.m. in the town of Waxahachie. A search warrant affidavit said “911 dispatch received the call and the caller hung up the phone. Dispatch got the caller back on the line and a female said all units were needed, and before they could get more information about what was going on, the caller hung up again.”

When the deputies arrived, they found 42-year-old Colleen Nichole Lemmon yelling for them to bring more help and telling them she had a gun in her hand. They found her in the living room, covered in blood with the gun next to her. She apparently had “self-inflicted” cuts on her wrists.

“I shot both of my kids,” she told them.

🚨#BREAKING: IT’S HAPPENED AGAIN!!!!!! A TEXAS MOTHER HAS BEEN ARRESTED FOR SH00TING AND K*LLING BOTH OF HER SONS!!! …a 21-year-old and a 15-year-old boy. According to a search warrant affidavit she told deputies: “I SH0T both of my kids.” On Thursday, October 1st, at 4:13 in the morning, a 911 call came in reporting an “unknown emergency” on Big Sky Drive. When Ellis County deputies pulled up, they say a woman was yelling at them to send MORE UNITS… and telling them she had a GUN in her hand. Christopher was pronounced d*ad at the scene. His 15-year-old brother was rushed to the hospital in critical condition. He didn’t make it. Their mother, 42-year-old Colleen Nichole Lemmon, was found with non-life-threatening injuries. Investigators say evidence at the scene shows she was responsible for sh00ting BOTH boys. Two counts of capital m*rder. Bond: $2.5 MILLION. There is still NO word on why. Their father now has to bury BOTH of his sons. WHY DOES THIS KEEP HAPPENING?!!!!!!!!!!!— Matt Van Swol (@mattvanswol) October 2, 2026

The boys’ father has spoken out and said he will seek justice for his sons. He also pointed out that his youngest had just celebrated his 15th birthday.

“My deepest sympathies go out to the victims’ father, family members, and loved ones involved in this tragic incident,” Sheriff Brad Norman said in a statement. “They will remain in our prayers during this difficult time.”

In case you missed it, last week, I set out to determine whether there has been an increase in the number of mothers who murder their children, or if this is just a media fixation due to the Clancy trial — or even a pure coincidence that we’re witnessing lately. While I did find that historically, men are just as and sometimes more likely to kill their children than women, there really isn’t much post-pandemic data out there. But I think it’s something worth looking into, with all of these headlines popping up in recent weeks.
