A mother who was found dead in a car in South Carolina alongside the bodies of her two children had killed another woman hours earlier.

The mother, Jessica Edens, was involved in a custody dispute with her husband over one of her children, reported The Associated Press, citing a police report.

The other woman who was killed reported harassing text messages and calls from Edens in the weeks leading up to the shooting, Greenville Police Chief Ken Miller said Friday.
