The mother of two toddlers who went missing from an east Tulsa apartment complex May 22 and presumably drowned has been charged with two counts of second-degree murder.
Donisha Willis, 24, was arrested on charges of child neglect and assaulting an officer the same day 3-year-old Miracle and 2-year-old Tony Crook went missing. Prosecutors filed the murder charges Monday.
Security camera video from the Shoreline Apartments showed Miracle and Tony walking hand-in-hand toward Mingo Creek on May 22. Police believe they entered the creek and were swept away.
Miracle's body was found in the Verdigris River near Lock and Dam 17 on May 26. Tony's body was found in Bird Creek near 46th Street North on May 27.
Willis did not have custody of the children. Police say a caretaker left them with her then returned later with their legal guardian to find her drunk and passed out on the couch with the children nowhere to be found.
Willis is due in court July 17 and is being held on a $600,000 bond.
