When you have a total of six deceased, it's unfathomable.

When you have a total of six deceased, it's unfathable.

We've never seen anything this big.

I mean, it's like a horror movie when you have six and then when you have a small person involved, a child.

As night fell Monday, Anderson County Sheriff's deputies were still securing the sprawling crime scene on two adjoining properties northwest of Palestine, near the small town of Tennessee Colony, the house where the murder suspect was arrested, down the road, a pond where four bodies were discovered earlier in the day, including a child's, not a mile from where two bodies were found in a trailer Sunday morning.

After deputies got a 911 call from a woman who witnessed the carnage and escaped it, hiding in the woods for hours.

Apparently, he did not see her run away, and she was able to hide, thank God.

A man and a woman were found in a travel trailer with

gunshot wounds and other injuries. The cause of death has not been released for the four victims

found in the pond. Monday, 33-year-old William Mitchell Hudson was arrested at his mother's home.

The witness told deputies that Hudson had initially come to the campsite to help pull out a

vehicle stuck in the mud, then stayed around to socialize with new neighbors who bought the property

next door about a year ago and had come to camp, two families related by marriage. What triggered the

murderous rampage, still a mystery. Sheriff Taylor says some of his deputies are struggling with what they've seen and

crisis counselors have been called into hell.

It's terrific.

And we've never seen anything quite this like this.

You see it on TV, you think it happened somewhere else, but it's never happened here.
