What went wrong in Mitrice Richardson case?
It was the kind of phone call you might expect a worried mother to make.
Latice Sutton sounded concerned, confused and a bit embarrassed as she talked to the sheriff’s deputy, trying to figure out whether to make the 80-mile middle-of-the-night drive to the Malibu jail to pick up her 24-year-old daughter, Mitrice Richardson.
“It’s dark and she doesn’t have a car and I don’t want her wandering about,” Sutton said. “The only way I would come and get her is if she is going to be released tonight…. She’s not from that area and I would hate to wake up to a morning report: Girl lost somewhere with her head cut off.”
