Orangeburg, South Carolina (CNN) -- A funeral service for two boys found dead in a South Carolina river is scheduled Friday in the city where many are still shocked over the circumstances of their deaths.
A service for 1-year-old Ja'van Duley and 2-year-old Devean Duley is scheduled for 11 a.m. at a church in Orangeburg, South Carolina.
Shaquan Duley, the boys' mother, is accused of smothering her children, then strapping their lifeless bodies into car seats and sinking the car in the Edisto River.
Authorities said Duley, a 29-year-old unemployed, single mother, may have been fed up with criticism from her mother and that her increasing frustration could have led to the killings.
Duley sobbed this week at her arraignment, which lasted less than three minutes. She entered no plea to the charges, and no date was set for her next appearance.
Her lawyer, Carl B. Grant, described her as "distraught" and said she was "extremely sad and tearful" during the proceedings.
"She had a solemn attitude and was crying before she entered court," Grant said. He said he has not yet seen the full case against Duley, but added, "I can assure you there is more than has been said and reported by anyone".
The boys' bodies were discovered early Monday after witnesses reported Duley's car had gone into the Edisto River outside Orangeburg, about 75 miles northwest of Charleston. Orangeburg County Sheriff Larry Williams told reporters Duley had no means of taking care of her children. CNN
