Her family said Ashley had struggled with substance abuse, but that she had also been the victim of an abusive ex-boyfriend. She was in a relationship with Lane Garrison, the star of the “Prison Break”, who was caught by a surveillance camera beating her up. He was convicted of domestic battery in 2012.
