Let's Kill Mom
Let's Kill Mom: Four Texas Teens and a Horrifying Murder Pact | Donna Fielder
12 posts | 4 read | 5 to read
In September, 2008, Roanoke, Texas, police discovered a house of horrors: poisoned pudding, a bathtub set up for electrocution, a bloody butcher knife, and a hank of chopped-off hair. The worst was yet to come… Days before, seventeen-year-old Jennifer Bailey, her thirteen-year-old brother David, and their friends Paul Henson and Merrilee White had made a gruesome pact: they’d kill their parents, steal their cars and credit cards, and flee to Canada. Paul and Merrilee’s parents thwarted their fates, but Jennifer and David’s mother Susan Bailey wasn’t so lucky. When the devoted mother returned home from work, her two children and their friend Paul took turns stabbing her and slicing her throat. When they were done, they fled in Susan’s car. They made it as far as South Dakota before being arrested. What really led them to make such a despicable pact? The answers would cast a disturbing new light on the way we see the all-American family, our neighbors, our children—and the society that nurtured them. Now an Investigation Discovery TV Special

I told myself that I needed to read 100 pages before I gave up, but I found myself mentally arguing with the author in this book. I am glad Susan Bailey has her story shared and that family on both sides of this awful event had a moment to grieve or express their sorrow. This was my favorite part of the book though! I hope it is ok with @Mynameisacolour that I shared. It made me giggle! #lmpbc #groupm

HeathHof Ha ha! I don't mind. Seriously though, what horrible kids! 4y
wisherwishinguponastar @Mynameisacolour The interviews at the end and how there was no consistency with the story... an unfortunate situation all around! 4y

Day 6: I did not get as much reading as I would like done, but work has been filled with moving fixtures and books around. Sometimes you gotta just nap!
