The Walking Dead: 10 Worst Things Alpha Ever Did
3. Allowing Walkers To Eat A Baby
Every villain on The Walking Dead has a moment early on that sums up just how evil they really are. Negan infamously killed Abraham and Glenn; The Governor kept fish tanks full of reanimated walker heads; and Shane sacrifices innocent farmhand Otis.
It's Alpha, though, who has perhaps the most subtle and horrific defining moment of them all. As she negotiates with Daryl for the release of Lydia from Hilltop, one of the Whisperers is distressed by her crying baby, who Alpha motions to be left for approaching walkers to feed on.
Luckily, the baby, Adam, is saved by Connie is a brave act of defiance, but the very fact that Alpha was unflinching at the idea of letting a baby die speaks volumes about what she's capable of.
It's also worth noting that this small act of evil has major repercussions going forward, basically causing the deaths of Adam's traumatised birth mother, as well as her disillusioned sister further down the line.
