Girl Takes Her Mother’s Phone Where She Hears the Voice of Her Father Who Died 5 Years Ago — Story of the Day
A young girl planning to run away with her boyfriend decides to rob her mom of money but finds more than she bargains for.
“I hate you! It should have been you!” The statement had become an anthem for Lisa Norman’s teenage daughter Linda.

They planned for Linda to rob her mother the day after her birthday and escape that night without the woman’s knowledge. Linda thought it was poetic justice.
