I have no idea what happened to Alexis, but for some reason I put very little stock in what her new friends say. She had known these gals for what..? Less than a year? What if, say for instance, they were partying together and something bad happened? It would be almost instinctual for someone who wants to avoid trouble, to cook up a story. (In this case, about a husband who chokes you on a regular basis, and a divorce that even Mom doesn't know about.) Something seems off with them. One of them made the remark they were just a bunch of young mothers who hang out and go to dinner together. Yet Alexis isn't a mother, and in her photos with her friends, I see no evidence of little ones running around, either. Wouldn't the children have been present at a Thanksgiving meal? So why are they putting out the "we are just a group of mothers" idea? To be perfectly honest, I do not trust the husband, OR the friends. All IMHO, of course.
