Air date: Sep 28, 2018

Alex’s family claims she had it all. Her mother Jane, and younger sisters, Victoria and Stephanie, say Alex was homecoming princess, a varsity cheerleader, and known as one of the prettiest, most popular girls in school. But they claim those glory days have since faded because now, Alex captures her small town’s attention with mugshots and headlines reporting her numerous arrests, including an arrest for assaulting her sister with a butcher knife. Her family says Alex is a drug addict and her behavior knows no bounds. Alex says her family needs to stop harping on things that she insists are old news because she is dedicated to turning her life around.
