WEST FARGO, N.D. (KFGO-AM) -- West Fargo teenager Mackenzie Jackson has been granted guardianship of her younger brother and sister.
The decision came yesterday, one day before her 19th birthday.
Jackson graduated from West Fargo High School last year and has been fighting for custody after both of her parents died. Spencer, 14, and Meagan, 16, were put in foster care a few months before their father's death in early January. Their mother died of heart problems two years ago.
Jackson doesn't have full custody of her brother and sister yet. She's now a foster parent. Her court date has been set for August where she'll find out if she has full legal custody of her siblings.
Jackson says all she and her siblings want is to be together as a family.
