Amber Pasztor old WANE-TV in a jail interview Monday that she killed the children so they'd be safe in heaven.
Pasztor says 7-year-old Liliana Hernandez and 6-year-old Rene Pasztor were in good hands in her father's custody, but she didn't think they were safe. She says — in her words — "My kids are in a better place. … They don't have no worries no more."
The 29-year-old Fort Wayne woman is charged with two counts of murder in the Sept. 26 deaths.
Pasztor also told WANE-TV she shot her neighbor and took his car. She hasn't been charged with Frank Macomber's death.
