Meet Mariah Day, Betsy & Russ Faria’s Daughter
Mariah Day is the youngest daughter of Betsy Faria.
Betsy had her from her previous relationship. Mariah’s older sister Leah turned 31-year-old in September 2021. Leah works at Silver Pancake House where she started her job there on 11 January 2022. She is also working at 5 Star Burgers – St. Louis as a server. Furthermore, she started working at First Watch as a server in 2017.
Mariah recently wrote on her Facebook, “I refuse to continuously remember my mom like the way she died and all the horrific events that happened after. So let’s honor her memory by remembering who she was. The fighter, the spontaneous go-getter, the traveler, the hands-on mother, the dancing queen and so much more. She was extraordinary beyond her death story and she deserved/s so much better.”
At the time of her mother’s death, she was only 17 so one could only imagine how traumatic it was for her to lose her mother the way she did.
After the premiere of The Thing About Pam, Mariah spoke to Fox2News. She shared that her mom deserves so much better than she’s currently being represented in a dramatized TV series.
Mariah added, “I understand them bringing awareness to wrongful convictions, but I think there are so many other ways they can do that rather than making people’s real-life tragedies into a dramatized TV show for entertainment.”
She added, “My mom was probably the most unique person you’d ever meet and she touched so many lives. It’s just crazy to look back and think back to who she was.”
Mariah Day And Pam Hupp’s Relationship
During the trial, Leah also testified that Russ and her mother fought often. “It wasn’t The Brady Bunch,” Leah said. Mariah also shared a similar sentiment and the prosecutor had allegedly threatened them to keep quiet. She and her sister believed in the stories Leah Askey made to convict their step-father Russ but always questioned why Pam Hupp wasn’t the center of the investigation.
They filed a suit against Pam for claiming the $100 thousand Pam inherited as a beneficiary from their mother. However, they lost the court battle. The court concluded that Pam didn’t make an enforceable promise to Betsy and that plaintiffs (Leah and Mariah) failed to carry their burden of proof to establish either constructive fraud or unjust enrichment.
