I don’t know what to do.

Our family our pets too. Are shaken, I rescued a honey of an elderly cat (one moment she is full of love/ next it’s the scariest thing) we guess about 9. By herself she can be a honey and then aggressive. We have had her for 8 months. She attacked me back in February and I had to have antibiotics and in my county the drs had to call and make a police report, if she bites again law is to put her down. She did bite my daughter a few months ago. But I think it was the kiss bite because no blood was drawn) She has her good days and her bad days (I mean don’t we all).However I thought she was doing better. We introduced her to our other animals properly. I read and re read. For the most part she ignores our dog. But she has become aggressive to our other cat. I was like ok and tried several attempts to separate and re introduce. However it’s not looking like it will work. I hate to give up on her, so I thought about just putting her in a bedroom forever. But I can’t imagine her living the rest of her life in my bedroom. But I also can’t trust her when we sleep . She will come up purring and rub herself on you, we let her come to the hand and rub her cheeks. She is really sweet but she can attack the dog or our other cat on Whim she gets into a hunters stalking position, and I have to snag her before she goes after the others. No way am I quick enough, I top of that we are a simi active family there are times we need to leave the home. I can’t protect the other animals if I am outside. She stalks them. And then she grapples them with her front legs in like a choke hold and starts digging her hind legs into the animal clawing out clumps of fur and biting. I don’t know what to do. I am afraid if I tell my vet he will tell me she has to be put down. Our hearts are very broken and worried.
