Arrested
Officer Zimmerman took her and her four children to the police station, where Ebony was able to call a co-worker to pick up her kids and notify her sister, who lived in Chicago. She was the only one who could take care of them while Ebony was in jail.
But that meant taking them back to Chicago, and Ebony couldn’t bear the thought of them being so far away. That said, she had other, more pressing problems. Once the police searched her car, she’d have to come clean.
