Mills said Hailey Dempsey fatally shot her mom, Valerie DeBoe, at their residence in the Tampa Bay area, then fled with her three young daughters.
Dempsey then allegedly shot and killed her 4-month-old and 4-year-old daughters, and also tried to shoot the 2-year-old but missed.

Moments later, Dempsey turned the gun on herself and took her own life, according to Mills, who also said police responded to the Dempsey home three times in the days leading up to the tragedy.
Cops say on May 1, two days before the deadly shooting, Dempsey got into a "verbal confrontation" with her husband Jay over porn she found on his cell phone.
The police chief added, "It wasn't cheating or anything like that, evidently it was just porn, and they were having an argument over that.
