According to police, officers arrested Slaughter after she was seen running naked with blood on her hands about 2 miles from her home.
911 operators then received a phone call a short time later from Slaughter's boyfriend stating that he had just returned home to find Slaughter's daughter dead with a pair of bloody scissors next to her body.
During questioning, Slaughter told detectives that she stabbed the little girl to death after sensing an "evil presence" around the child. She went on to say that the girl, identified as Kyla Franks, had been "laughing with an evil voice" moments before the attack.
Slaughter stated that the attack was very uncharacteristic for her and asked detectives "Did I kill my daughter? Is she dead?" She also claimed that she had been having trouble getting to sleep after she began taking a caffeinated dietary supplement.
On Wednesday Slaughter refused to leave her jail bed to attend her first court appearance. An angry judge reset her hearing for Friday and told jail officials that he wants Slaughter brought into court by force if necessary.
Slaughter was booked into the Clark County Detention Center and charged with murder with a deadly weapon. She remains held without bond.
