The case in question followed then 13-year-old Lauryn Licari and her then-boyfriend Owen, who began receiving text messages from an unknown number. The teens would receive up to 50 messages a day, often including threats and insults.
But nothing would prepare anyone for the actual person behind the hateful messages. Read on to find out the identity of the anonymous messenger in Unknown Number: The High School Catfish.
The local police department had hit a brick wall in terms of uncovering who was behind the messages. That was until police officer Bradley Peter stepped in as a liaison to the FBI and tracked the messages to Kendra.
Reflecting in the documentary about what she did, Kendra said: "Realistically, a lot of us have probably broken the law at some point or another and not gotten caught. I'm sure people drove drunk, haven’t been caught."
Where is Kendra Licari now?
Kendra pleaded guilty to two counts of stalking a minor and was sentenced to 19 months to five years in prison.
However, it took a lot of convincing Kendra to be interviewed for the documentary.
Borgman explained: "That was appealing to her, [to] sit down and tell her story from her perspective and that Lauryn [could] see her do that. She wanted to do it, I think, for her daughter."
Where is Lauryn Licari now?
When the documentary makers first interviewed Lauryn in 2023, she wanted Kendra back in her life.
Borgman told Tudum: "[Lauryn's] done a lot of pretty critical thinking, especially between that time and now... These years are such critical years for young people."
