Woman who catfished her daughter with horrific messages reveals why she did it

A mother who catfished her daughter anonymously for over a year has revealed her motive for sending vitriolic harassment to the teenager and her boyfriend. Kendra Licari from Michigan was exposed as the person behind an unknown number that plagued Lauryn Licari and her boyfriend Owen McKenny, who were both 13 at the time, with 'hundreds of thousands' of abusive and aggressive messages. After it emerged that Kendra was responsible for stalking Lauryn and sending the awful messages, she was arrested and sentenced to 19 months to five years in prison after she pled guilty to two counts of assaulting a minor. Speaking in Netflix's new documentary, Unknown Number: The High School Catfish, Kendra revealed some of the reasons that led to her behaviour. The 44-year-old insisted that she did not send the first messages Lauryn had received from an unknown number that claimed Owen was going to break up with her - but admitted that she continued them.
