No wonder the comments were full of people cursing Margaret.
They said it wasn’t that people turned bad when they got old, but that bad people only got worse with age.
They claimed her actions were those of a repeat offender.
They even said she wanted to extort money for her children before she died—that she was a “good mom” who deserved such an end.
I should have felt grief.
But knowing David had done this because he thought the victim was my mother, I felt only numb.
Linda slapped her thigh in outrage, shouting at me,
“Rachel, call David. Tell him to send a lawyer’s letter and sue these bastards immediately!”
I didn’t tell her that the “bastard” she cursed was likely her own nephew.
Before I could hang up the phone, the police station called.
“Mrs. Miller, we’re following up on your mother-in-law’s case. You mentioned discussing prosecution with your husband. Do you have a decision?”
I was about to redirect them to David, but Linda shouted into the phone,
“Prosecute! You must prosecute—arrest them immediately! She killed someone and still dares to smear my brother online!”
“And you are?”
