Who Was Reagan Hancock?
Jessica Brookes admitted in the doc that she was “disappointed” at first when her daughter Reagan Simmons got pregnant at 17.
Stepfather Marcus Brookes, meanwhile, “was furious,” he said, as it could make “starting a life a lot harder.”
But, once their granddaughter Kynlee was born, he added, “it was like she was always meant to be a mother. That was her thing.”
When Reagan got engaged to her longtime boyfriend Homer Hancock, Jessica hired Parker to take their engagement photos. Parker also ended up photographing the couple’s wedding when they tied the knot Sept. 21, 2019.
And when Reagan shared in May 2020 that she was expecting her second child, Jessica said, “we were just over the moon for her and Homer.”
Jessica testified during Parker’s trial that she didn’t know of her daughter having much contact with Parker until after the defendant found out Reagan was pregnant and having a girl.
NetflixWhen Did Taylor Parker First Say She Was Pregnant?
Griffin’s friend Angela Pate said in the doc that Parker first told her she was “convinced” she was pregnant in January 2020. Angela advised her not to tell Griffin until she was sure.
“One evening,” Griffin said, “she hits me with, ‘Pretty sure I’m pregnant.'”
Parker later told police that he never had any idea she wasn’t expecting and, everything she did later, she acted alone.
He also didn’t know until after Parker was arrested that she couldn’t get pregnant.
Dr. Christopher Mason of Northeast Texas Women’s Health, who testified at her trial and participated in Maternal Instinct, said that she had a tubal ligation in 2014 to prevent another pregnancy after having two children.
And while that was reversible, Mason explained in the doc, she returned with bleeding a year and a half later and doctors found a cyst on her right ovary and “what looked like a visible ectopic pregnancy in the left tube.”
The decision was made to do a hysterectomy, he said, meaning she would no longer have a uterus and it would be impossible for her to ever be pregnant again.
