12 years ago today my grandma was murdered. she was stabbed 46 times to her death by a white supremacist. her killer is still in jail but will get out soon . i took this photo on mother’s day, the day before she was killed. 

she raised me. she saved my life.

Sierra Gamache murdered my grandmother http://www.appeal-democrat.com/sierra-gamache-given-years/article_8f3afb19-1e54-5388-af30-dde5324f2d7d.html  http://www.appeal-democrat.com/yc-woman-found-guilty-of-murder/article_a3444134-488f-5ea4-bd46-05eb9e97283d.html

she is getting out in 4 years. she will get to enjoy a life while my grandmother will not, while the rest of us who survived will never live a complete, happy life. she took everything from me. 16 years is not a punishment fitting a pre-meditated hate crime.
