Disturbing details have been revealed by police investigating the double murders allegedly committed by Utah transgender killer Collin Troy Bailey, 28, who goes by the name Mia.
Bailey is accused of killing her parents and returning to the scene, shooting them multiple times, “just to make sure they were dead.”
Bailey told police “she had no remorse for her actions and would not change anything she had done.”
‘I would do it again. I hate them,” she said, according to a booking affidavit seen by police KSL.
Bailey has been charged with two counts of aggravated murder, one count of attempted aggravated murder, one count of aggravated burglary and one count of discharge of a firearm in the third degree.
Alleged transgender killer from Utah, Collin Troy Bailey, 28, who goes by the name Mia, was arrested after murdering her parents Gail, 69, and Joseph Bailey, 70.
“Mia told officers she went to the home with the intention of killing her parents” and was seen on surveillance camera footage entering the home.
Several shell casings were found on the first floor of the house, near the stairs and also in the front room.
According to arrest documents, Bailey admitted to entering the home and shooting her mother almost immediately.
The body of Gail Bailey, 69, was found on the first floor, while her husband’s body was found in the hallway leading to the master bedroom.
Washington City police say Bailey’s father, Joseph, 70, was shot twice, while her mother was hit four times.
“When she entered the house, she almost immediately started shooting at her mother. Mia stated that her father… heard the shots and started walking towards her. Mia stated that she shot her father in the head and he immediately fell to the ground,” the affidavit alleges.

After firing the first shots, police returned upstairs and fired again.
‘Mia described returning to her father who was lying on the ground and shooting him again in the head to make sure he was dead. As she did so, Mia walked back to her mother and shot her in the head to make sure she was dead,” police wrote in the affidavit.
After allegedly killing her parents, Bailey fired a shot through the bedroom door where her brother and his wife had locked themselves.

“Mia stated that her brother was not her primary target, but she would not have been sad if the shot had killed him,” the police statement said.
When officers arrived at the home, they found the door slightly ajar.
A search for Bailey continued throughout the night, involving officers from the Washington Police Department, the Washington County Sheriff’s Office and the Utah Department of Public Safety.
Helicopters were used in the search for her before she was eventually found walking in a nearby ravine. She tried to evade capture by hiding in the bushes.
‘Officers attended the scene and observed Mia walking north through the car wash towards the Painted Desert section. Mia was ordered to stop, and she grabbed a gun from her waistband and placed it to her head as she walked away from the officers, ignoring their commands. Officers lost sight of Mia when she entered the thick brush of the car wash/ravine,” the arrest report said.
Police said they were called after reports of shots fired at the home, and upon entering they found the dead couple, confirming they died from gunshot wounds.

Her arrest ended a 16-hour search after officers were called to reports of shots fired at the family home, where officers found her slaughtered parents.
“Mia describes them jumping fences or walls, hiding in bushes, sleeping in a park bathroom, and other attempts to evade law enforcement. Mia bragged about her ability to evade law enforcement efforts to locate her, including evading officers, hiding from helicopters, and hiding from drones,” police wrote in their affidavit.
Officers had warned Bailey was considered armed and dangerous after she fled the scene in a yellow 2014 Kia Sol.
Bailey has been charged with two counts of aggravated murder, one count of attempted aggravated murder, one count of aggravated burglary and one count of discharge of a firearm in the third degree.
