[Warning: Potentially Triggering Content] A 10-year-old Texas girl was critically injured and her mother was killed in what police have deemed to be a murder-suicide that took place at the very end of last month.
Per multiple media reports, a man in the city of Spring, Texas shot and killed his girlfriend during a domestic dispute before turning the gun on himself.
