Banita Jacks
Banita Jacks is a Washington, DC, resident convicted of murdering her four daughters, who ranged in age from 5 to 17 years old.〔Alexander, Keith L. ("Jacks's Trial in Deaths of 4 Girls Set to Open." ) The Washington Post, 2009-07-12.〕 On July 29, 2009, Jacks was convicted of the felony murder of all four girls, as well as child cruelty towards all four girls and first-degree murder of the younger three girls.〔Alexander, Keith L. ("Banita Jacks Found Guilty of Murdering Daughters." ) The Washington Post, 2009-07-29.〕
The girls' bodies were discovered in Jacks' home in January 2008 by federal marshals carrying out an eviction; the girls had died in the summer of 2007.〔 The case led to scrutiny of the Washington social service agencies that failed to prevent the deaths or discover them in the months afterward; four days after the bodies were found, the city's mayor Adrian Fenty fired six employees of Washington's Child and Family Services Agency, saying they "just didn't do their job."〔Dvorak, Petula and Namakura, David. ("Fenty Fires 6 in Girls' Deaths." ) The Washington Post, 2008-01-15, p. A01.〕
==Family history==
As a child, Jacks attended school in Charles County, Maryland; Jacks told police that she had left school in the sixth grade, but during her trial her mother, Mamie Jacks, said Banita had dropped out in the tenth grade when she was seventeen years old and pregnant with her first child, Brittany Jacks.〔Alexander, Keith L. "In Rare Display, Jacks Moved To Tears as Mother Testifies." The Washington Post, 2009-07-17.〕 After having her second child, Tatianna Jacks, Banita met Nathaniel Fogle in 2000, while she was working as a hairdresser, and subsequently gave birth to N'Kiah and Aja Fogle. In 2005, Jacks and her four daughters lived with Mamie Jacks for a short time after being evicted, but they moved out when Mamie Jacks refused to allow Fogle to stay with them.〔 The family lived in a variety of places, including a homeless shelter, before a nonprofit organization helped them to move into the Washington, DC, rowhouse in August 2006.〔Government of the District of Columbia Office of the Inspector General (April 2009). (Report of Special Evaluation: Interactions Between An At-Risk Family, District Agencies, And Other Service Providers (2005-2008) ). Retrieved on 2009-07-29.〕
Neighbors and family members described Jacks as a caring and attentive mother until the period following Nathaniel Fogle's death in February 2007.〔 Until Jacks' 2008 arrest, her mother had not seen her or the children since 2005, but said in court that she had no reason to believe the children were in danger, in spite of a 2006 call that she made to the Charles County social services department for information about the girls. Mamie Jacks testified, "I never saw her mistreat the girls, and the girls never complained about her mistreatment."〔 However, LaShawn Ragland, a friend with whom the Jacks/Fogles had lived for several months in 2006, testified about arguments between Brittany and Banita Jacks and Banita's punishing her oldest daughter by denying her food and isolating her from the younger girls.〔Alexander, Keith L. "Decomposition Made M.E.'s Job Difficult." The Washington Post, 2009-07-21.〕 Ragland also said that Jacks and Fogle often allowed their daughters Aja and N'Kiah, aged 3 and 4 years old at the time, to smoke marijuana while their parents laughed.〔 Her boyfriend, Nathaniel Fogle Jr., died of cancer in February 2007.
