So true. I've seen it many times (i.e. co-workers out for drinks, someone gets drunk and acts foolish). People will and do take those impressions (and gossip) with them back to work. Now that there is an "inquiry" involved, people will be scrambling to NOT get into trouble, so the stories of what happened could easily change (for example, even if other employees agreed with Mary and added in their own 2 cents, they may try to put it all on Mary in order to save themselves from any trouble).
Muchkin said it best......keep your mouth shut in the presence of thine co-workers.
