Wanda Finnie also expressed her thoughts about her sister and family in this documentary.

"It has been a long journey in terms of the experience for our family and for Wendy. I hope to come out of this letting people see the love that we have as a family together for each other as well as the love we have for Wendy, and to understand the journey we’ve been through that has not always been perfect. Everyone wanted the same thing, which is to see Wendy healthy and happy."

After she was escorted to the hospital, she had to undergo mental competency exams. Later, she revealed on The Breakfast Club,
