Woman Says Husband Would Rather ‘Take An Abandonment Charge’ Than Have Daughter In Their Home

Amanda and Junior say they want to kick their 17-year-old daughter, Ollie, out of the house because they’ve had enough of her out-of-control behavior. They claim she’s stolen money from them, wrecked their vehicles, and dropped out of school, and that she uses drugs and gets into physical altercations. “My husband would rather take an abandonment charge than have her in our home,” says Amanda, who claims they’ve tried everything to help Ollie, but nothing works. Amanda says Ollie was a great kid and a straight-A student until the family moved across the country. What does she say happened to Ollie after the move?
