SUMMARY: Carly Gregg, a 15-year-old from Mississippi, is on trial for allegedly murdering her mother, Ashley Smylie, when she was just 14. Disturbing kitchen surveillance footage reveals her calm demeanor post-shooting, as she appears to text and casually walk around, even as gunshots ring out. Following the incident, she attempted to ambush her stepfather, Heath Smylie, who testified that Gregg shot him too. Initially charged with murder and other offenses, she pleaded not guilty, and her defense is claiming insanity. Despite a plea deal of 40 years, she rejected it, now facing severe consequences.
