I don't think it was just for Molly. Think about how they essentially dumped their very ill daughter on Maginn. And she had been sick for years, spiraling in and out of her mania and depression, suffering migraines and insomnia that lasts for days, probably overmedicated. And where are her parents?
Where?
They were presenting the image and living a fake life of "perfection." Molly was an embarrassment..
Until, by miracle, she became the wife of the successful executive with two beautiful children. Now she's acceptable, far enough away not to embarrass them.
This whole outrageous charade is about their pride as well...and keeping up appearances. If the police had just believed Tom and dropped the whole thing, and Tracey had stayed in Ireland....they could still be swanning around...chatting about their "victim daughter."
Victimhood is quite fashionable in the US today.
