She’s disgusting for saying that her daughter more than anything deserves justice for her father. And I
hope by the time the truth actually comes out her daughter is old enough to disown her mother and resent her

Someone died that night. How can it be rubbish?
@StHonorable;
She has concluded that our justice system is incapable of holding her accountable. One thing she hasn’t seen is that the wind of change is blowing.
