1 hr ago

On Tuesday, authorities released the 911 calls placed from inside the home where Texas mother Christy Sheats, 42, fatally shot her two daughters Madison, 17, and Taylor, 22.

In the chilling audio, obtained by PEOPLE, Christy's husband Jason Sheats, 45, and the couple's children can be heard begging for Christy to put the weapon down, as they cry and yell hysterically.

"Please don't point the gun at us. Put down your gun," a male voice pleads. "Please don't shoot."

The recording continues as the man tries to reason with Christy, apologizing and offering to do anything she would like if she would surrender the weapon.
