The mother charged with murdering her two-year-old twin girls is said to have confessed to killing them with her 'bare hands' before screaming at police to shoot her, court papers have revealed. 

Tenia Campbell, 24, of Medford, New York was arrested after her young daughters, Jasmine and Jaida, were found suffering from cardiac arrest in the back of her car in Montauk on Thursday.  

She was arrested at the scene following a frantic police search spanning more than 60 miles, which began when her own mother, Vanessa McQueen, called 911 at 2.30pm telling police Tenia had threatened to kill herself and her daughters.
