In Mandan, North Dakota, a young mother stands accused of an act that fractures the most fundamental covenant of human life — the protection of one's children. Kailey Erhart, 22, allegedly stabbed two of her three young children to death on a Thursday that began with threats and ended in irreversible loss. A third child survived but carries the wounds of that day into an uncertain future. The community, the first responders who bore witness, and a grieving father are now left to reckon with a tragedy that resists easy comprehension.
