Best Friends No Matter What..?

In The Pact, Gus Harte is the mother of Chris Harte, who is accused of killing Emily Gold. Before Emily's death, Gus was best friends with Emily's mother, Melanie Gold. Since her death, Melanie refuses to speak to Gus at all given the circumstances. If you were in this situation, would you still speak to your best friend if her child was accused of murdering your daughter? Or would you cut your losses of their friendship and move on?

  1. I think that if I had been friends with her for a very long time then I would try to still be friends with her. I would try to understand that it wasn't her who physically killed my daughter so it couldn't totally be her fault.

  2. I honestly don't know what I would do in this situation because I would want to still talk to her because she was my best friend and that is the person you talk to when you need to let things out but then again I would wander what could've happened in their house that would make her son think that killing her daughter was okay.

  3. I would most likely go get a new best friend. I would not want the mother of my daughters killer anywhere around me. Not only because she raised the child that killed my child but also looking and talking to her would just remind me of my daughter and what she had gone through. And she would probably take her sons side because he is her son and blood is thicker than water.
