I agree totally. She was drug tested at juvenile and has come up clean, so that's a relief. I got her released yesterday and we have already arranged a mental health assessment..
Understand, she immediately confessed on tape at the store as well as the station. When I was able to meet with her, she does have the insight to acknowlege that her clothing obsession wasn't worth what she has bee subjected to. And I don't think she was posturing or being manipulative...
