In a horrific incident, a man from West Sacramento, California, who was accused of attempting to murder his wife and killing his children in September, pleaded guilty to the crimes Thursday.
Robert William Hodges, 32, will be sentenced Jan. 19, 2018, to life in prison without the possibility of parole.
On Sept. 13, Hodges smothered his seven-month-old son Lucas to death. Within a span of few hours, he strangulated his other two children — Julie and Kelvin as well. Hodges even devised a plan to kill his wife, Mai Sheng Vang, however, failed to do so.
