Gypsy revealed in an exclusive interview with PEOPLE before her release that she would change the past if she could.
“If I had another chance to redo everything, I don’t know if I would go back to when I was a child and tell my aunts and uncles that I’m not sick and mommy makes me sick, or, if I would travel back to just the point of that conversation with Nick and tell him, ‘You know what, I’m going to go tell the police everything,'” Gypsy said. “I kind of struggle with that.”
However, she also clarified: “Nobody will ever hear me say I’m glad she’s dead or I’m proud of what I did. I regret it every single day.”
