YIKES: Young Couple Arrested After Mother Found in Suitcase

Heather Mack and her mother did not get along......

It's no secret that Heather Mack, the 19-year-old daughter of the late jazz musician James Mack, didn't get along with her mother, Sheila von Wiese-Mack. And now that her mother's body has been found in a bloodied suitcase in Bali, Heather is looking more suspicious than ever, and has been arrested along with her 21-year-old boyfriend, aspiring hip hop artist Tommy Schaefer.

Her father died of an aneurysm while on vacation in Greece in 2006; Heather and her mother's relationship started to spiral out of control before then, with police being called to their Chicago home for domestic disturbance 86 times since 2004, reports the Chicago Tribune.

Ted and Jackie. She was an accomplished academic -earned her PhD.

One more little entitled brat - the two of them won't need her mother's credit cards where they are going. Throw away the keys.
