Maternal Instinct: Taylor Parker

from Crime at Bedtime

For eleven months, Taylor Parker told everyone she was pregnant. She posted gender reveals on social media. She showed off sonograms. She accepted gifts. Her boyfriend believed her. Her friends believed her. So did a young mother in New Boston, Texas named Reagan Simmons-Hancock, who had let Taylor photograph her wedding the year before and had defended her against the doubters. But Taylor Parker had two children already. She had no uterus. She had not been pregnant for a single day. On the 9th of October 2020, with the lie unravelling, Taylor drove to Reagan's home in New Boston with a scalpel in her bag. By the time a state trooper pulled her over on a highway outside De Kalb, Texas, with an umbilical cord visible from her trousers, two lives were over.
