I'm sure they didn't like Stern but in that video Ford Shelly says that they were helping to get her away from Larry. Which is odd because Larry is supposedly a family friend. Since her death they have changed their tone but I still think there's more to them that meets the eye. I wish they would address it. Knowing Anna she may have led them to believe that Larry was hitting her and was a control freak (HELLO HKS!!!). I think they are good people but like I said I do think there's more than meets the eye.
HKS is bad but Anna was his willing little imp to a certain degree. In those emails and when she's yapping at Ford it's obvious that at that point in time she was hiding from Larry and wanted nothing to do with him. I will concede that with Howard Wormtongue whispering in her ear she may have been more willing to run and get Larry out of her life.
I thought that what Ford was referring to was the fact that she had told them that Larry was the father and just that she didn't want him to have any part of raising the baby. She may have told them that he had threatened to get custody...
They have stated that ANS told them that Larry was the daddy.
