Video After The Jump

It took police investigators several months, but they finally think they have solved a horrific murder case in Conyers, Georgia.

Twin sisters Tasmiyah and Jasmiyah Whitehead have been arrested for the murder of their own mother.

Jarmecca “Nikki” Whitehead, 34 was killed January 13,2010 after being brutally stabbed and beaten.

The twins, 15 years old at the time of the murder, initially told police they found their mother dead after arriving home from school, then ran out into the street to flag down help.

Before her murder, the mom had confided to neighbor Angela Avery she had fear of her daughters. "The mother was kind of afraid that something like that might happen," Avery told CBS Atlanta.

"I can't explain why because the mother didn't do a lot of talking, but she did have that particular fear. Yes, she did."

Evidence found at the crime scene was processed by the Georgia Bureau of Investigation, linking the girls to the scene leading to their arrest.

Police say the twins will be charged as adults.
