A Missouri mother is accused of threatening to kill her two kids during a TikTok livestream, telling them "I'm sick of you" and "it won't even be a beating," according to cops.
"Go to sleep before I f—ing kill you," Elena Lujan, 30, told the children, ages 3 and 7, during her livestream early Saturday, according to a probable cause statement filed in Cole County Circuit Court.
"You f—ing d— suckers," Lujan allegedly said, before going off on one of her two kids, saying they'll be the reason for both of their deaths, according to the statement.
"I'll kill her and then you'll be the reason why she's dead," Lujan allegedly told them. "I'm sick of you and if I could kill you and keep your sister I would."
Lujan added, "The only reason you're still alive is because if I kill your a— I'll go to jail," according to police.

Authorities were called Saturday and told about the TikTok livestream, prompting officers to visit Lujan's apartment at around 2 a.m., the probable cause statement says.
When they arrived, Lujan was allegedly drunk and passed out in the children's room with an open bottle of tequila on the counter in the kitchen and broken glass on the floor.
"A 3-year-old child was lying on the couch in the living room," the probable cause statement says. "A 7-year-old child was asleep in the defendant's bedroom. It took several minutes to wake the defendant up due to her level of intoxication."
Lujan was taken into custody and placed in the rear of a patrol vehicle, where she "spit through the open window" at an officer standing outside the door, according to cops. She refused to provide a breath sample to determine her BAC and was transported to a local police station.
"She made numerous threats to kill the victims," the probable cause statement concludes. "She is the only adult living in the home."
During the alleged livestream, police say Lujan can be heard yelling at one of her kids and telling them to say "yes ma'am."
"While crying, the child says 'yes ma'am,'" the probable cause statement states.
Lujan was charged with child abuse and taken to the Cole County Jail, where she is being held without bond. An arraignment is scheduled for Wednesday.
