Woman accused of stabbing husband and son to death at family resort: Complaint

On Monday, Monroe County District Attorney Mike Mancuso announced homicide charges against a 27-year-old woman named Metallica Rose Harrison after she allegedly stabbed her husband and 3-year-old son to death at a family resort in the Pocono Mountains. Harrison called 911 and told the operator she was too weak to end her own life, but stated that her husband and son had already died in their bed.

Police found the victims, Charles Harrison and T.H., with multiple stab wounds at the Great Wolf Lodge room they shared. Harrison also had cuts on her wrist and neck, but no defensive wounds, and had taken medication to thin her blood. She refused to speak with police during an ambulance ride and was taken to a local hospital for treatment.

The Pocono Township Police Department stated that the incident was a "violent domestic tragedy with no threat to the community." The resort's management expressed deep sorrow over the tragic event, while the Monroe County coroner said autopsy results would be available later in the week.
