Court documents reveal details about mother accused of killing kids

TUCSON, AZ (Tucson News Now) - Court documents obtained by Tucson News Now reveal details before and after a local mom allegedly took the lives of her two young children.

In an interim complaint, a brief synopsis by a Tucson Police detective describes a conversation 25-year-old Perla Morales allegedly had with a 911 operator.

According to the detective's report, Morales called 911 and stated that "she needed an ambulance because all her kids are dead."

The report also says the 911 operator called back Morales, and Morales "advised she shot kids and cut her wrists."

Tucson police responded to the home on the 900 block of West Calle Colado Saturday night. According to officers, Morales had shot and killed her two children 17-month-old Richard Rosovich Jr. and 4-year-old Emma Rosovich.

The interim complaint says Morales had an argument with her boyfriend before the shooting where he "threatened to leave her." The report says Morales admitted "she shot the children multiple times."

Perla Morales is being held in the Pima County jail on $1 million bond on two counts of first degree murder and two counts of child abuse.
