A Michigan man who spent 16 years
behind bars for killing his pregnant wife in 1991 pleaded guilty Wednesday
to the murders of four children, including his
own two daughters, PEOPLE confirms.
According to court records obtained
by PEOPLE, Gregory Green admitted before a Wayne County judge that
he killed his two daughters and his stepdaughters in late September
— eight years after his release from prison for his first wife’s stabbing
death.
Accepting a plea deal from
prosecutors, Green pleaded guilty to manslaughter, torture and assault for the
Sept. 28. 2016, crime.
According to court records, Green,
49, fatally shot his stepchildren — 19-year-old Chadney Allen and 17-year-old
Kara Allen — in front of their mother, Faith Green. Faith Green was stabbed and
shot but survived the attack inside the couples’ Dearborn Heights residence.
Green’s own daughters — Kaleigh, 4,
and Koi Green, 5 — both died from asphyxiation caused by carbon monoxide
poisoning. Records verify that Green placed them in a car; toxic fumes from the
tailpipe were routed into the vehicle through a plastic hose.

Afterwards, Green moved his
daughters’ bodies into their beds.
Green called 911 not long after the
murders and admitted he had killed his entire family. Police found him waiting
for them on his front porch.
Inside, officers found Faith Green
bound with duct tape and zip ties. Green cut his wife’s face with a box cutter
before shooting her foot. He shot his two stepdaughters multiple times as their
mother watched.

According to court records obtained
by PEOPLE, Faith Green had filed for divorce a month before the murders, citing
a “breakdown in the marriage relationship.”
Green pleaded no contest to his
first wife’s 1991 murder. He was released in 2008.
Green will be sentenced on March 1.
