No motive for the 2018 crime has been disclosed
Today, the process begins to find jurors in West Virginia to decide the fate of a 47-year-old mother who, in 2018, shot her two young daughters, killing one of them.
PEOPLE confirms a jury will be assembled today inside a Berkeley County courtroom to determine Julie Orellana’s sentence for murdering her 8-year-old daughter, Eliza, and shooting her 11-year-old daughter, Olivia. Once picked, the jury will consider whether Orellana should receive mercy after pleading guilty less than a month ago to single counts of murder and attempted murder.
West Virginia State Police responded to Orellana’s Gerrardstown residence on September 20, 2018, after a neighbor called 911 moments after Olivia ran up to her home bleeding from a gunshot wound to her leg. According to investigators, Orellana lured Eliza and Olivia to an upstairs room, telling them kittens had become stuck under the bed.Image zoom

New Mom Self-Conscious About Scar Where Baby Punched Its Way Out Of StomachMILTON, WI—Saying that she was still adjusting to the physical aftereffects of her difficult childbirth, new mother Tina Quinn admitted Friday she was still a bit self-conscious about the scar where Skyler, her healthy 7-pound, 8-ounce newborn, punched his way out of her stomach. “I know it’s kind of a silly thing to worry about, but I feel like it looks weird—I just don’t feel comfortable wearing a bikini anymore,” said Quinn, lamenting that numerous home remedies, including vitamin E and coconut oil, had thus far failed to reduce the severity of the scar network webbed across her lower abdomen. “It was still the best day of my life, and I’d happily have my Skyler claw and gnash his way out of me again in a heartbeat, but it’s been challenging. Especially when some people judge you for not choosing to give birth the ‘traditional’ way.” Quinn also expressed gratitude that she suffered less scarring than a close friend who has yet to be released from the hospital after an 18-hour labor during which her baby slowly head-butted his way out of the womb.
