<p>A mother of three killed her children and then herself following a police standoff in Verdigris, Oklahoma, according to authorities.</p>
<p>Verdigris is about 20 miles outside of Tulsa, and on the afternoon of July 20, Verdigris Police Department (VPD) officers saw fireworks going off outside a home, the Oklahoma State Bureau of Investigation said in <a href="https://www.facebook.com/OSBI.OK/posts/pfbid0315ms1XWDRm1N1tAPfRKGoz8dyU3mAvQgDNzSPTQPiAV4uxZ3vZNBNd9zkxvMkyEEl" target="_blank" rel="noopener">a press release</a>. When police arrived at the home, they found an armed woman who had barricaded herself and her children inside the home.</p>
<p>Police brought in a negotiator to speak with the woman, whom The Daily Wire is not naming in keeping with a company policy that seeks to deprive mass killers of notoriety. For three hours, police attempted to make contact with the mother, but she never responded.</p>
<p>“At no time when we were there for that three-hour period did we hear anything from inside the house – nothing – no response, no movement,” Verdigris Police Chief Jack Shackelford said <a href="https://www.news9.com/story/64bb0338d9f3150725ac71d2/lots-of-tragedy:-verdigris-community-grieves-after-police-say-mother-killed-children-herself" target="_blank" rel="noopener">told</a> KWTV.</p>
<p>With no response, officers entered the home and found the mother and her three children all dead. Her children were 11, 6, and the youngest was just 10 months old.</p>
<p>Investigators determined that the mother had shot her three children and then herself, Today <a href="https://www.today.com/parents/oklahoma-mom-children-killed-murder-suicide-rcna95803" target="_blank" rel="noopener">reported</a>.</p>
<p>Verdigris Police Chief Jack Shackelford told the <a href="https://tulsaworld.com/news/local/crime-courts/woman-three-children-dead-in-triple-murder-suicide-in-verdigris/article_1dcf547c-2799-11ee-828c-af3e8da774a8.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Tulsa World</a> that the incident began when a woman who was trapped in the mother’s garage began shooting fireworks through the window to get help. Shackelford added that the woman, a social worker who has not been named by media outlets, had brought one of the mother&#8217;s children to the house for a supervised visit. The mother pointed a gun at the social worker and took the child before locking the social worker – and two other children that were with her – inside the garage.</p>
<p>The unnamed social worker and the two other children with her were able to escape with the help of police.</p>

<p>Shackleford told KWTV that he and his officers knew the mother&#8217;s residence, as there had been multiple child welfare and domestic violence calls.</p>
<p>“We knew her from previous encounters that we had with that residence and some of the other issues we’d had there before. I knew her by a first name basis and who she was,” he told the outlet.</p>
<p>On July 20, the day of the tragedy, the father of one of the children, Billy Jacobson, posted about the incident <a href="https://www.facebook.com/billy.jacobson.391" target="_blank" rel="noopener">on Facebook</a>.</p>
<p>“Please keep us in your prayers,” he wrote.</p>
<p>He also revealed that the mother of his child had previously attempted to kill herself in January.</p>
<p>Jacobson was the father of the 10-month-old killed by his mother.</p>
