As Marlene stared at the damning video playing on her phone screen, a storm of emotions raged in her. The footage captured the chaotic encounter between her and Amber–the moment where it was obvious that her car had collided purposely with Amber’s–along with the heated exchange that followed, culminating in Marlene’s ill–fated decision to strike out at her annoying and good–for–nothing sister in a fit of
