The eldest daughter of a Florida couple police say were murdered last week says she is shocked at the brutal killings that left her and 16 other siblings parentless.
"I just can't believe that there's people in the world that are capable of this type of hate," Ashley Markham, 26, told ABC's "Good Morning America" today. "This is just unimaginable."
Markham's parents, Byrd and Melanie Billings, were shot to death July 9 in what police have referred to as a highly organized, military style operation in which robbery was the primary motive. A safe was among the items taken from the home.
