GREENVILLE, N.C. — A South Carolina woman has pleaded guilty in the February stabbing death of her daughter, a soldier based in North Carolina.

Multiple media outlets report that Linda Shannon of Bethune, S.C., pleaded guilty Monday to second-degree murder in federal court in Greenville.

The 50-year-old told investigators she snapped after her daughter, 32-year-old Autumn Shannon, called her a bad mother.

The active duty soldier stationed at Fort Bragg was found with multiple stab wounds and a large knife in her neck when military police arrived at her home on the post.

Court documents say Linda Shannon was staying with her daughter while the younger woman recovered from a car accident.

Linda Shannon is scheduled to be sentenced in New Bern in December.
