Very strange. The psychologist who has her client living in her home for eight months, the client shoots her husband dead and the psychologist never talks about what happened with her. Neither does the mother. Never talks with her daughter about what happened.
-
To this day mom and daughter have NEVER talked about the shooting? Yet there is a little girl picketing to set her mommy free.
-
She told the neighbor everything but not her own mother? I call BS.
-
The mother is not being truthful in my opinion and is not a credible witness! There is no way that she has NEVER discussed what happened with her daughter and the shooting!
-
If they were both so afraid of Doug, why would Alicia leave them alone????
-
I’ve lived in Southern Florida for 30 years and it does NOT get “cooler” in the afternoon! In fact the temperature increases. You would take a toddler to the park,if at all, early morning. That statement made no sense. Clearly her and Ashley need to get their stories straight.
-
She never asked her daughter what happened that led up to the shooting???
-
The mother is lying through her teeth!
-
They didn’t talk about it because the mother knew it was going to happen?
-
It’s very clear where Ashley learned how to lie
-
You guys need to choose your clips better. She didn't "recall the shocking moment"
-
This mother is being very careful what she says. I say she’s being untruthful.
-
What??? She never asked her daughter why she shot her husband?? Come on lady…you are making this so much worse for your daughter.
-
To this day Ashley never talked about the murder with her mom? So, she never talked about the giant elephant in the room (so to speak)??? Talk about a red flag.
-
Surprising that Mom didn't know how old her granddaughter is/was.
-
The mother is not someone I want to be friend with, she has an attitude
-
Mother very vague…. almost nonchalant…
-
SHE WANTED TO BE A SINGLE MOMMY, NOW SHE WONT BE ABLE TO RAISE HER CHILD.
-
😲 WOW ... Ashley looks just like her mom..
