Truitt, like the actual victim in both the film and book, said her neighbor made up strange lies and copied her before falsely accusing Truitt of neglecting her son and later of trying to kill her. Truitt said she was charged with attempted murder and later acquitted, just like in the dramatization. Truitt told Oxygen.com that she genuinely thought she would end up in prison during the scary ordeal.

Lisa Beasley is the across-the-street neighbor of Karen and Scott Morgan, who moved to Seattle with their son, Miles. She was shown watching the Morgans move in to their new house before warmly greeting Karen and Miles. During their conversation, Lisa expressed her sorrow when Karen revealed that she had a child before Miles, a daughter named Rose, who died of SIDS (Sudden Infant Death Syndrome), telling her story due to Lisa complimenting Karen's necklace, which was a reminder of Rose.
