The family of an Arizona mother suspected of killing her three young sons has spoken about the incident.

Family members of 29-year-old Octavia Renee Rogers thanked family and friends Monday for the outpouring of support they've received since Rogers was arrested earlier this month.

The victims' grandmother Tanella McCoy described Rogers as a mother who loved her children unconditionally.

Attorney Benjamin Taylor declined to comment on details in the case because of an ongoing investigation.

Authorities say officers found the bodies of Rogers' sons in a closet after the suspect's brother called 911 when Rogers stabbed herself in the abdomen and neck. The boys were ages 2 months and 5 and 8 years old.

She's being held in lieu of a $1 million bond.
