>> well, there's a lot going on here, alex. one of the groomsmen in the wedding a week prior to the death, suggested that the bride never looked at her husband during the entire ceremony. what does that say? who knows? now we know she exchanged text messages with a friend indicating the day that her husband went over this cliff that they were going to have a discussion and suggesting she feared for her own life. alex, we get to the point then. first she said sure husband disappeared in a car with somebody else. next, she finds the body and tells a ranger, hey, i found the body. a ranger said, boy, that's interesting you would find it in the entire national glacier park. and the story is that she and her husband argued, that he grabbed her arm, that she made him release. and then, alex, she says she took two hands on his back and shoved him and he went over the side. my question is, if you and i are arguing, alex, you have just broken my grip on your arm, would you turn your back to me then? there are still holes that have to be

i learned about alex's death. from a phone call at eleven o'clock at night on july twenty ninth i had gotten a call. from the sea c.p.s. supervisor i've had one phone call from her that i did not get and she left a message saying that it was due to alex and i need basically needed to give her a call back and. i was unfortunately sleeping at that time and. what woke me up was the multiple phone calls from my caseworker and josh my aunt my ex fiance and. that's what finally woke me up and i answered the phone call and the only thing that i could was told that i needed to come to temple that alex had a little accident and i had an argument with josh over the phone because he was you know understandably very upset he was on his way down there at that time it was around one one thirty in the morning and. so i told him you know is she alive right now and he couldn't answer me i kept repeating the question and after about three minutes he could finally tell me right now she is. and so my partner and i left and took off to templ
