Pathetic. Truly pathetic.
I;ll call you for news later today or Friday morning.
Any mother would be genuinely upset if their son was suspected of murder and being held in jail.
However, this woman will not allow the barest possibility that her son could be in the wrong. She concedes nothing, and blubbers over every word that proceeds out of Joran's mouth. This is a case of my child, my child, my child, to the exclusion of all other reality.
Yet, we know that her "child" has been anything but Mr. Perfect, way before now. She seems clueless that he already has a bad behavior record and he is only 17. (A record the parents' have allowed him to make, with impunity, it would appear.)
