I totally agree with Cataholic---you should get in touch with your friend, face to face would be best. Please don't wait and think about this - we had an almost identical case here a couple of years ago,the mom had been friends with my daughter in high school but they eventually went their own way. What a shock when we heard on the news that this mother's daughter had been found dead in a motel , so far the murder has gone unsolved although there was lots of clues and evidence, just not enough to find anyone guilty - the case is cold but still open. The mother has not had a day of peace since she lost her daughter who was only 19. I don't think she will ever find closure until the guilty party is brought to justice.
