A Father Accused of a Deadly Family Attack

Dr. Phil speaks with Mariah Gardner, who claims on the evening of April 13th, 2023, her ex-husband entered her home, and carried out a deadly violent attack against her, and the 2 young daughters they shared together. Mariah claims her ex-husband, Stephen, not only shot her multiple times, including guns shot wounds to her face and neck, but also claims he stabbed their daughters (2 years old and 11 months old) during the alleged attack. Tragically, 11 month old, Willow Grace, would be pronounced dead from her injuries just 2 days shy of her 1st birthday. Now, nearly 3 years later, Stephen sits behind bars, facing the death penalty, as he awaits a trial scheduled to begin in April.
