Mary Day's mother to police: "Life is full of regrets"
On February 14, 2003, Mary Day's mother, Charlotte Houle, spoke to a Riley County Police detective in Kansas. Throughout the interview, Houle maintained that although she did not take steps to find her 13-year-old daughter, she had nothing to do with Mary's disappearance in 1981. Nine months after this interview, a woman claiming to be Mary Day was found in Phoenix, Arizona.
