Column by?Monica Hesse: The “Mormon Wives” of a new show are all a part of a loose consortium of content creators known as “MomTok,” which they refer to in such an official way that it sounds like they’re talking about the CIA rather than just, you know, a group of suburban Utahns who occasionally get together to make homemade graham crackers and film choreographed dances.

But the breadwinner energy they bring home from their job — that’s kind of an illusion, too.

Nancy Lewis was walking along the beach near her home in Westport, Conn., last month when she spotted two black-and-white photos floating in the water. When she got closer, she realized they were?sonogram?photos of a fetus in the womb. The photos were dated June 9, 2020, and there was a name printed at the top: Randi Marcucio. “I thought, ‘I’ll bet I can track this woman down and return these to her,’” said Lewis, 63. Lewis said she searched Marcucio’s name again to double-check her address and was shocked when a?GoFundMe page popped up?showing a photo of a collapsed house. She then realized how the sonograms had ended up in the?Long Island Sound.
