A mother and her adult daughter were each sentenced to five consecutive life sentences for the murders of 5 of their relatives, including 3 children, in a Bucks County apartment last year. 47-year-old Shana Decree and her 21-year-old daughter Dominique Decree each pled guilty but mentally ill to five counts of first degree murder. The victims include Shana's children 25-year-old Naa'Irah Smith and 13-year-old Damon Decree Jr. both of Morrisville, Shana's sister 42-year-old Jamilla Campbell of Trenton and her 9-year-old twins Imani and Erika Allen. Four of the victims were suffocated, the Jamilla was strangled. It happened in late February 2019 over three days. A social worker discovered the scene during a welfare check on 2/25/19 at the Robert Morris Apartments on the 200 block of West Bridge Street in Morrisville, PA. The defendants were found "disoriented" inside the wrecked unit along with the five bodies. They told police that everyone wanted to die, including the children. Court appointed psychologists and psychiatrists determined they suffered from severe mental illness.

A woman was struck and killed in a hit-and-run accident while crossing the street in Montgomery County on Sunday evening, 9/27. It happened around 8:15 p.m. on Cheltenham Ave near Ogontz Ave in the Wyncote section of Cheltenham Township. The victim has been identified as 30-year-old Shanna Hurdle of Philadelphia. She was crossing Cheltenham Ave at the time when she was struck. Hurdle was pronounced dead at the scene. The white SUV, possibly a GMC, kept driving. It turned onto Upsal Street in Philadelphia. The vehicle would have noticeable front end and hood damage. If you have any information, contact Cheltenham Police at (215) 885-1600. See photo below.

You will be able to register to vote, request a mail-in ballot, receive the ballot, vote, seal the ballot in the envelopes, and then return it all at the same time.
