that no one knows what the truth is. she was so tanked all the time, I'm not sure she knows what happened. Sad.
Perhaps if she had called the police or gone to a real doctor instead of someone she has on retainer? She made very serious accusations- on TV instead of the police. WTF way is that way to handle things- turn your abuse into a PR opportunity? Dragging out hints of it all season to make yourself more poplular? She is someone to be pitied for sure, but not for the reasons she wants to be.
