SHIRLENE ALCIME

Police arrested a Miami mother this week and charged her with the murder of her 3-year-old twins. The twins were discovered deceased in their mother’s car on February 2, 2024.

On the same day as the discovery of the twins, Shirlene Alcime allegedly jumped from a freeway on-ramp onto the train tracks below. She was critically injured.

Alcime was booked into jail on two counts of child neglect causing great bodily harm on Thursday.

On February 2, around 2 a.m., a driver called Miami-Dade Police to report two unresponsive children in a vehicle on northbound Interstate 95 near the Florida Turnpike Extension.

When officers arrived, Alcime jumped off the expressway wall at a “considerable height” and fell onto the tracks.

Paramedics transported Alcime, Milendhet Napoleon-Cadet, and her twin brother, Milendhere Napoleon-Cadet, to the hospital, where they were pronounced dead.

She is being held without a bond.
