^ that being said:

Yes, alison has done some bad things that hurt people. I am not condoning what she did, but she was young. She has grown up since coming back. Before the scene in the church with mona, ali didn't say or do anything bad. She talked to jenna and didn't threaten her; she apologized to Paige (which is something she never would've done), she didn't torment anyone. She saved the girls many times; yeah, she may not have told them the whole truth but I don't blame her.. The girls can't keep their mouths shut. Ali told emily to meet her in the warehouse and not to tell anyone; so of course emily told Spencer who showed up. Not only that, but ali told the girls not to let anyone know she was back, so again: emily tells Paige who tells the police.
