The mother of beheading suspect Alton Nolen apologized to the families of the two victims in a short video posted Saturday night on Facebook.

“My heart is just so heavy right now,” Joyce Nolen said. “That’s not my son.”

The mother explained in the video that what her son is accused of doing is so unlike the good kid she raised up in a loving home.

“My son was raised up believing in God. That’s what he believes,” she said.
