Boyfriend Of Alleged Prom Mom Pays Her A Visit

By Newsradio 88 Staff

He arrived bearing flowers and balloons.

John Lewis, the boyfriend of the New Jersey teen who gave birth at her prom and tossed her newborn son in the trash, spent five hours with her yesterday.

One friend says Melissa Drexler told Lewis last fall she might be pregnant and planned to have the baby. But later she told him the pregnancy was a scare.

Meanwhile, Drexler's parents have hired prominent Ocean County lawyer Steven Secare to represent her.
