A Florida mom appeared to smirk as deputies escorted her during a perp walk Wednesday night after her 14-year-old daughter was found dead inside their home, authorities said.
Kelsie Glover, 33, was arrested earlier that day under suspicion of aggravated assault with a deadly weapon and battery after responding deputies found her chasing witnesses with a hammer inside her home in Poinciana, Osceola County Sheriff Marcos Lopez said.
Witnesses told deputies they saw Glover hold her 14-year-old daughter’s head underwater in a bathtub until she became unresponsive. They said Glover started to chase and attack them with a hammer when they tried to stop her from harming her daughter.
Deputies at the home tried to save the unresponsive teen, later identified as Giselle Glover, but she was pronounced dead at a hospital.

Lopez said that additional charges against Glover are pending a medical examiner’s determination of the teen’s cause of death.
"It's a dark day when things like this happen," Lopez told reporters during a news conference. "What happened to her was unimaginable, and we are determined to get justice for Giselle."
