Ex-Boyfriend Arrested in Murder of Two Sisters. Abbaney (20) and Deja (19) Matts were found dead in their dorm room at Texas A&M Commerce on Monday, and Abbaney’s two-year-old was found wounded. Police have now arrested Abbaney’s ex-boyfriend, Jacques Dshawn Smith, in the killings. He had been arrested January 27 for hitting Abbaney with a lamp and a frying pan and threatening her with a knife, according to Garland police, and then released on bond. His bail in the aggravated assault with a deadly weapon was set at $15,000. An awful, awful story.
