Fort Bend County Sheriff Troy Nehls said a family argument led to the shooting Friday evening at a home outside the Houston suburb of Fulshear. Christy Sheats, 42, convened the meeting in the living room of the home that was attended by her husband Jason Sheats, and her daughters, Taylor Sheats, 22, and Madison Sheats, 17, according to the sheriff's office.
"During that meeting, Christy Sheats held up a gun and shot both girls," the sheriff's office said.
Jason Sheats and the daughters ran outside where Madison Sheats collapsed and died. Jason Sheats ran to the end of the cul-de-sac.
Christy Sheats shot Taylor Sheats one more time on the street. A witness told investigators Christy Sheats then went back into the home, reloaded her gun and shot Taylor once more.
When officers arrived, they saw Christy Sheats shooting one of her daughters in the street, the sheriff's office said.
An officer fatally shot Christy Sheats after she refused to obey commands to drop her handgun. Taylor Sheats was taken to a Houston hospital, where she died.

Utterly irrelevant but of course thrown in for the agenda, don't you know.
Well at least the weapon wasn't obtained through a gun show loophole.
My WAG the credit limit had been reached and that was that her roots were showing and the crazy could not be contained any longer. There are limits to materialism as the core of “conservatism.”
Lifetime will make a film about it blaming the father for this act of domestic violence.
There are limits to materialism as the core of “conservatism.”
What the hell does that mean?
That is part of what they call “the gunshow loophole”. The transfer of ownership without going through a FFL and background check.
Madison Davey, a friend of the Sheats daughters, told KTRK-TV that the two girls were caught up in the troubled marriage of their parents. She said that Jason Sheats told her that Christy Sheats shot her daughters because she wanted him to suffer.
What thread did you want too post to?
More stuff. My WAG is that the troubled marriage was because the Mr. told the Mrs that she would have to dial back the more and that was that. When you hear a women state “He doesn’t understand me anymore” you know the couple is at the end of the credit limit, because she needs and deserves more.
//// She said that Jason Sheats told her that Christy Sheats shot her daughters because she wanted him to suffer. ////
So basically she went Medea on Jason, like in the Greek play “Medea”.
I'd bet the mother was on psychotropic drugs, but that will never be addressed. It never is.
Interesting comment...
Need to roll that one around the brain some..
Were I the father of those girls I would have done a little more then run away.
What the hell does the entire post mean?
Initially I read she stabbed them first.
If that’s the case, should she have guns?
I tend to agree. Cops want a quick closure and no one ever does drug tests on the nuts like this. I’ll make a bet that she was on some type of prescription drug or pain-killer, and just had a ‘bad’ day.
I went to high school with some kid and his sister (she was four years older than him). Around five years ago, he would have been near 45...he was in the midst of a divorce episode with the wife.
The wife and daughter, along with the sister of this guy (and her son)...were all caught in a house by the guy, and shot dead. Zero drug tests done on the guy....cops just wanted the episode closed up.
I think if we established prescription drugs as one of the key factors in these episodes....we’d press for laws to eliminate the drugs from sales. No one really wants to discuss that talk though.
