Alexis Davis (Nancy Lee Grahn) is devastated after waking up to discover her boyfriend, Dr. Neil Byrne’s (Joe Flanigan) cold, lifeless body. The shock factor really set in when Alexis was told by GH doctors and the PCPD that Neil has died of an opioid overdose.
Alexis is convinced there has been foul play, and even DA Jordan Ashford (Briana Nicole Henry) believes Cyrus Renault (Jeff Kober) is behind Neil’s death. Things got complicated when Alexis and Julian Jerome (William DeVry) went back to her house and Julian discovered the used syringe.
General Hospital spoilers reveal Neil’s death will be investigated and possibly ruled a homicide, as opposed to an overdose, taking Neil’s own life. No signs have pointed to Neil using drugs, no red flags, no indication that Neil had turned to drugs.
Cyrus Renault has been moving drugs through Port Charles, using General Hospital as an outlet for his product. General Hospital rumors claim this is the beginning of a long nightmare for Alexis as she has been set up. The syringe found under Alexis bed will serve as “evidence,” and the fact that Julian didn’t leave it alone will complicate things further.
Alexis has a long road ahead of her as she struggles through her grief of losing Neil while she is a suspect for his murder!
