In the comic book series, I was told Lori was still alive and she's running with Judith away from the attack. She is hit by the gun fire and when she falls to her death she smothers judith by falling on her. so be glad they spared us that. Now I am not saying I think Judith is dead. Last night was a crazy episode and I think the current question is how can they possibly regroup and survive when they suffered so much?
