Mother of Harris Co. 12-year-old, accused of stabbing neighbor, speaks out about son’s mental health struggles HARRIS COUNTY, Texas – The mother of a 12-year-old, who’s accused of stabbing a neighbor, says her son is full of regret. Khadijah says visiting her son in a juvenile detention center is something she never thought would be her reality. But it is after her 12-year-old was charged with stabbing a nearly 60-year-old woman. “I just keep talking to God. Oh God, it’s me again. Let’s do this. We’ve got to get through this.” Khadijah says praying and crying have replaced eating and sleeping since Saturday when her two sons, 7 and 12-years-old, were captured on another neighbor’s home camera walking up a neighbor’s driveway. Investigators say the 12-year-old went into the 59-year-old woman’s garage and stabbed her several times. “It hurts so bad. Because first, it was a woman. It’s a woman he did this to. Also, because it’s my child. It’s my child.”
