She Still Calls Her 'Mom'

In an interview with ABC News after the sentencing, Kamiyah said she still loved Gloria Williams. She visited her in prison. They spoke on the phone. And she said she still called her 'Mom' — not as a slip of habit, but as a plain statement of how she actually felt. The woman a court had just sentenced to eighteen years for stealing her as a newborn was still, in Kamiyah's own words, her mother. It was not the ending anyone watching this case from the outside had expected.
