SUSPECTED killer Tiffanie Lucas was praised for her parenting style in a cryptic pregnancy post before her children were shot.
Lucas has been charged with the murder of her two sons – Jayden, 9, and Maurice, 6, after they were found bleeding out, suffering gunshot wounds to the head at their home on November 8.
The 32-year-old mother from Shepherdsville, Kentucky, just outside Louisville, had previously been dubbed a “rockstar” mom on social media.
Earlier this year, Lucas shared a post on her Facebook page telling followers and friends that she was not pregnant.
Her status read: “Yes, I’ve gained weight. No, I’m not pregnant.”
The post featured a number of photographs of Lucas in gym pants and a crop top.
While the mother of two felt the need to clarify her change in appearance was simply weight gain, one Facebook user suggested that pregnancy would be a wonderful turn of events.
“You do not look pregnant!! If you were pregnant tho you would be JUST AS BEAUTIFUL!!,” the user wrote.
“Ur gorgeous on the outside/on the inside too…you are a rockstar single mother who grinds and still has the time to be kind to people.. ..ur weight gain is beautiful in you I mean own that a** girl… much love to u.”
Underneath one photograph another user called her “the total package.”

Other posts on Lucas’ social media appear to show a loving and normal family and a doting mother.
She was also revealed to have been a former business owner who was previously interviewed by a news outlet about local retail issues.
Bullitt County Detective Richard Beahl revealed in court that both of Lucas’ children had been shot in the head and that four bullets had been fired in just 30 seconds.
On Monday, the court heard that Lucas claimed the shooting was an “accident” and that she had been “manipulated.”
“I asked Miss Lucas if she meant to hurt her children. She indicated that it was an accident,” said Beahl.
“She also made some comments such as, quote, ‘I’m in such a bad spot. I would never do anything like this unless someone manipulated me.'”
Beahl added that Lucas claimed she was being manipulated through Facebook “through the internet or through Wi-Fi, through Facebook and through her Wi-Fi, being manipulated into doing what she did.”
Family members have been left shocked at the apparent change in the mother with Maurice’s stepmother, Michelle Rice saying, “She showed no emotion. She shows no emotion.”
Lucas is being held at the Bullitt County Detention Center on a $2 million bond.
