A year and a half worth of weight that's been lifted off our shoulders. It's some closure for everyone. |
Everything that I wanted to say in my statement was not permitted and that's not just me. That's everybody else from our family. You really are very limited with what you can say to the defendant. However, his family was permitted to address me however they chose. But I wasn't allowed to say my opinion on the death penalty, what I thought of Daryl, what I thought should happen to Daryl. We weren't permitted to do that, so victims really have very limited rights. |
This is justice for me but it is especially justice for Brian. And as I said in court, he is the reason that Daryl Lawrence was caught. And I know that this is what Brian would want as well. |
