Presser was later adopted by Donald and Judy Patrick of Western Springs and given the name Lynn Melody Patrick. She left the Patrick family when she was 15 and became a ward of the DuPage County Juvenile Justice agency.
Presser did not finish high school, but graduated from the Northwestern University School of Law in 1985.
