?1? Tacony woman charged in toddler deaths
Ditman Street near Levick
A woman accused of killing her two 18-month-old twins last week is being held without bail.
Authorities said Tuesday that 41-year-old Stacey Smalls faces two counts of first-degree murder in the deaths of the twins, named Adam and Eve.
She is also accused of the attempted murder of her 4-year-old daughter.
Investigators believe one twin was strangled and the other was drowned. Police allege Smalls gave the 4-year-old some type of substance to drink in an attempt to poison her. Authorities say Smalls, who worked as a nurse, then tried to kill herself by cutting her wrists.
It was not immediately clear if she had an attorney. A preliminary hearing is scheduled for June 13.
