Julie Schenecker | Murdered Her Own Children | Police Interrogation The Schenecker double homicide occurred on January 27, 2011; 16-year-old Calyx and 13-year-old Beau Schenecker were found dead by police at their home in Tampa, Florida. Their mother, Julie Powers Schenecker, was arrested on suspicion of their murder after an alleged confession. On January 29, Schenecker was admitted to Tampa General Hospital, but was released the next day. She was charged with two counts of first-degree murder, and indicted by grand jury on February 9. Seven days later, she entered a plea of not guilty, with her legal team indicating they would pursue a defense on the grounds of insanity. Parker Schenecker divorced his wife in May 2011, and subsequently filed a civil lawsuit for wrongful deaths, following dispute over distribution of the family's assets. Julie Schenecker's criminal trial began on April 28, 2014. She was found guilty of first-degree murder and was sentenced to two concurrent life terms in prison on May 15, 2014. On January 28, 2011, police visited the property after receiving a call from Schenecker's mother, who expressed concern at not being able to reach her daughter. Officers found Beau Schenecker in a sport utility vehicle in the garage and Calyx Schenecker in her bedroom; both had been shot with a .38 revolver and covered with blankets. Julie Schenecker was found unconscious on the rear porch covered in blood. Police stated that Schenecker admitted to killing her children because they "talked back and were mouthy". A police statement said, "She described the crimes in detail." A note was allegedly found in the house describing a plan to murder her children and commit suicide. According to the arrest affidavit, Beau was shot twice in the head on January 27 while being driven by his mother from soccer practice. Schenecker then drove home and killed Calyx in her room as she was doing her homework on her computer. The revolver had been purchased five days before the killings. Calyx was found on her bed covered by a blanket.

YouTube Video Episode Available! Gulfcoast Ultrasound Institute YouTube Channel On this episode of The Sonography Lounge hosts Lori and Trisha sit down with Dr. Charlotte Derr & Dr. Allyson Hansen to discuss the GUARD Protocol (Gastric Ultrasound for Aspiration Risk Determination). With the increased use of GLP-1 Agonists (Semaglutide, with brand names such as Ozempic, Wegovy, Rybelsus, Etc) for both diabetes and weight loss, there has been an increased number of aspirations in patients undergoing procedures. One of the effects of GLP-1 agonists is delayed gastric emptying which keeps patients feeling "full" thus reducing the desire to eat and overall caloric intake and blood sugar variations. Typically 6-8 hours not eating is enough time for a patient about to undergo an elective procedure to digest and empty their stomachs thus reducing the risk of aspiration while under anesthesia. With patients on GLP-1 agonists, we are seeing gastric contents remaining for several days after the last meal which can increase the risk of aspiration.  Dr. Derr and Dr. Hansen, discuss how they are using ultrasound and the GUARD protocol to determine the volume of food in a patient's stomach before elective and emergency procedures. This quick and simple bedside technique can drastically alter a provider's pre-procedure course of action.  CHARLOTTE DERR, MD, RDMS, FPD-AEMUS, FACEP Dr. Derr is the Professor of Emergency Medicine and the Fellowship Director of the Advanced Emergency Medicine Ultrasound Fellowship Program at the University of South Florida Morsani College of Medicine in Tampa, FL and serves as the Co-Medical Director at Gulfcoast Ultrasound Institute.

She has also obtained the Focused Practice Designation in Advanced Emergency Medicine US from the ABEM. She has authored and co-authored numerous articles, book chapters, and other publications on ultrasound and lectures throughout the US and internationally on diagnostic ultrasound.    ALLYSON HANSEN, DO Dr. Allyson Hansen is the Ultrasound Director at the University of South Florida Emergency Medicine program.
