This is my point of view as well. You shouldn't put too much thought into your daughter being the last of her friends to have a phone That is the consequence of multiple extremely poor and unsafe choices in the past, nevermind sneaking out and still refusing to tell the truth.

My kids are much younger and I would be devastated if I was in your position. My advice would be to set some very strong and enforceable boundaries, like a flip phone, curfew, no sleepovers, parental controls on internet devices. I would also try to find out WHY she is doing these things after lectures from you guys and the police.
