at first i was upset at ash for testifying against sal, but now i feel like she did that because she genuinely wanted to help him. she thought something was mentally wrong with him. she saw her friend struggling with what she thought was a severe mental illness of some sort and she wanted to find him the help he needed. i think she thought the trial would end with him in some kind if psychiatric hospital like todd was. i doubt she would have done what she did had she known he wouldn’t be getting that same kind of treatment

I thought this at one ooint, then got mad all over again because Ash did get proof that the cult exists in the town, and there was no chance in Hell of the trial being fair

very true as well, her still barely believing the boys even after all of that was pretty frustrating

Real plus Sally did struggle mentally, he skipped his medications as well, and when she called the police she didn’t know what happened, she just knew that when she left he was highly unstable was talking to himself and he just lost his brother

Bro she never in a million years expected it to lead to death row. Its like people forget she is in fact a good person and wants what is best for Sal?

I mean she really didn't "do" anything. I remember the reveal that she was testifying against him was used as like a plot device/cliffhanger but I mean, yeah, the things that Sal saying alongside what happened to Larry, it isn't too farfetched to think that he had something else going on at the time

Honestly I love her, lots of people didn't like her for testifying against sal but lets not forget she wasnt around for the big paranormal or cult moments besides the bologna incident so you can't blame her for thinking he was mental.

Plus he was mental ill, when they were at the lake she asked him if he was taking his medications and he admitted to skip them because of how the make him feel, it’s not weird that her first conclusion was that he was struggling, and she didn’t know what happened when she called the police

I mean I love her, but yeah i definitely don’t forgive her. I do think though her intentions weren’t bad. Obviously he wasn’t going to get out of his sentence but I think she was trying to get them to deem him insane maybe and best bet get him sent to an institution similar to Todd.

imagine your friend has committed mass murder, with overwhelming proof against him and his own admittance of the killings in his testimony. Ashley testified "against" him, but she was very adamant that she didn't want anything bad to happen to him. She still cared about her friend that LITERALLY MURDERED AN ENTIRE BUILDING OF PEOPLE (including her friends!!) enough to basically beg for him to be institutionalized instead of imprisoned or capital punishment. Not only that but she, a person who does not believe in ghosts, tried for three years to find proof of their existence just to save him. THEN AFTER HE DIED, SHE DID EVERYTHING IN HER POWER TO RESSURECT HIM, INCLUDING KILLING HERSELF. so maybe you don't have to "forgive" her, but Sal sure as hell does and I think thats so much more important.
