Carly Gregg murdered her own mother and attempted to murder her stepfather
Chapter 1: Why did Carly Gregg plan to harm her mother?
So this girl is about to unalive her own mom because mom found her vape pen. Let me explain. Now the girl, her name's Carly and she's from Mississippi and she's a good kid. She does well in school. She was apparently student of the year. She's so smart she skipped a grade. But Carly has a problem.
Chapter 2: What mental health challenges did Carly face?
She's been dealing with some mental issues, and she's been hearing voices in her head since she was six. And now that she's 11, the voices have only gotten worse. So how does she deal with all this? Well, allegedly, she's been... herself and her mom finds out that she's been doing that to herself and of course mom freaks out because who wouldn't.
So they put Carly in therapy and they get her formally diagnosed with major depressive disorder and adjustment disorder and they get Carly on some meds. So Carly starts taking these meds But unfortunately, the meds don't seem to be helping. She's still having mental issues. So now what's she gonna do? Well, at some point, Carly gets introduced by some of her friends to a little Zaza.
Chapter 3: How did Carly's substance use affect her life?
So she starts hitting that Zaza, and it turns out that she really likes how it makes her feel. She's like, damn, this is kind of nice. However, she's still really struggling with the mental illness stuff. And this is the only thing that seems to help. So she starts doing Zaza a lot. I guess she's really into those vape pens. And this goes on for a while. I guess Carly's hitting that Zaza daily.
Here's the thing though. She does this so much that her friends start to notice that she's high all the time. And some of them start to get worried because this isn't like her. So fast forward to around the time Carly is 14 years old. She's still having mental issues, and these problems seem to be getting worse. So they take her off her old meds, and they put her on some new different meds.
But still, none of these prescriptions seem to be helping, and the voices in her head continue. Now... Here's where things get crazy. One day she wakes up and she has to go to school. Her mom, who we'll just call mom, mom drives them both to the school because mom's a math teacher at that same school. And so Carly gets to school and while she's there, she meets up with her friends.
And one of her friends is really concerned about all the Zaza Carly's been smoking lately and about all those burner phones she has. Because apparently Carly has a bunch of burner phones linked to secret social media accounts.
I guess she doesn't want her parents knowing she has social media accounts, so she creates them with burner phones and she'll like use them to message boys and stuff she knows her parents don't approve of. Stuff like that. Anyway, so this friend confronts Carly, because I guess he's worried about her. He's like, you're smoking too much Zaza, Carly. And Carly, she gets mad.
Like, he's all up in her business. And they get into a big argument. And it escalates. And Carly ends up cussing the kid out. So that friend, in turn, he gets mad. And he goes and sends an email to Carly's mom. And bro tells her everything. About the stuff Carly's been smoking, about the vape pens, about the burner phones she's got. And mom reads this email and she's like, oh hell no.

Chapter 4: What led to Carly's confrontation with her mother?
Vape pens and burner phones? She is not gonna let this slide. So at the end of the school day, boom, mom confronts Carly about the email and about all the things Carly's friend told her. And mom is of course super mad. Like no one knows what was really said between them, but it's safe to assume mom goes off on her. And on the drive home, she's all mad and Carly's mad too.
But she's also panicking because she knows mom is probably about to search her room and find her shit. So they get home and mom goes straight to Carly's bedroom and she starts investigating, tossing the room, going through her stuff, looking for these alleged vape pens and burner phones. And this is where Carly flips and she gets a terrible idea that's going to affect her life forever.
Carly low-key sneaks into her mom's room, and she lifts up the mattress on the bed, and she grabs her parents' pew-pew. And then she creeps back toward her bedroom. And you can see her walking by on their home surveillance system. And you can see here that she's got the pew-pew behind her back. So then Carly goes into her bedroom where Mom is. And Mom actually just found four of her vape pens.
Blam!
Blam! And Mom falls to the floor and Carly fires one more time. Blam! And this unalives Mom. But then it's almost as if she had this planned because she goes back into the kitchen and she grabs her mom's phone off the counter. And you can see the phone in her hand here. And so she texts her stepdad, who we'll just call stepdad. So she texts stepdad and she pretends as if she's her mom.
And she asks him, when are you coming home, honey? And stepdad replies like, just finishing some things up at work. Now Carly wants to know when he's coming home because when he gets there, she's about to unalive him too. and strangely after she texts her stepdad carly starts singing to her dogs as if she didn't just murder someone Weird.
Now, I'm not a doctor, but when you look at all this, the hearing voices, the cutting, the sudden murder of her own mom, and then randomly singing to her dogs during all this chaos, I'm thinking Carly was misdiagnosed early on. I think the mental issues she's dealing with extend beyond major depressive disorder and adjustment disorder.
And I definitely think that smoking all that Zaza all the time greatly exacerbated whatever mental issue she's dealing with. But that's just my opinion. Tell me if I'm wrong. But anyway, then while she's there waiting on stepdad to get home, she suddenly decides to text a friend of hers and she's like, come over, it's an emergency.
And so sometime later, this friend comes over and we'll just call her friend. So friend comes over and Carly's like, you want to see a dead body? And friend's like, All right. Then Carly leads her friend to the bedroom and she shows her her unalive mother lying on the floor. And I don't know if the friend freaked out or if the friend is cool with seeing a dead body, but friend doesn't leave.
