A Georgia woman was charged with murder after police found her young daughter's dead body propped up in a recliner.

Shannen Grimes, 42, is behind bars in the Fulton County Jail after being charged with two counts of murder, cruelty to children, possession of a firearm or knife during commission of a felony, and tampering with evidence. Before she was booked into jail on Tuesday, she was treated at the hospital following an attempt to take her own life.

According to Sandy Springs Police, Grimes' sister called 911 on Nov. 14 after Grimes told her she had attempted to kill herself. Police went to Grimes' home in Laurel Grove condominiums where they found Grimes with a cut to her wrist — and her 11-year-old daughter Genesis, who was deceased and placed sitting up in a recliner.
