Summary

In 2011, two young sisters from Anaheim, California woke up on Christmas morning excited to open the presents. In the living room by the tree, their mother, Za' Zelle Preston, sat propped on the couch with her sunglasses on. Their step-father, William Wallace, told the girls, "Mommy got drunk and ruined Christmas" as he videotaped them opening their gifts. Listen to this episode to learn the truth of what happened that Christmas morning.
