Description

This book is written from my heart aft er the murder of my sister in 1999. My life was snuffed out of my very being and there was no light in sight to follow or bring me back home. So much sorrow and saddness was sucking me into a hollow black pit with no bottom. How could this happen to my sister, Jill? Why did this happen? How could I go on from here? Th is was such a cold blooded and sensless murder and things like this had never happened in our family or our town for that matter. Nothing could have compared and prepared my family of such a shocking event. Jill was stabbed in the back by a man she knew with a 13 inch butcher knife and died within a few minutes. Aja, ( Jill’s daugher) was in the kitchen and she heard a thump in the bathroom and ran in to see that her mother, her only parent involved in her little life was bleeding perfusely. Aja ran to the neighbors’ house to get help and call 9-1-1/ it was too late when the rescue squad arrived at the hospital. The entire family was there, with the exception of me, (I lived in Ohio) their faces pressed against the wet, cold glass looking on in disbelief. My daughter was at the hospital and called me, “saying mom! mom! Jill is gone”. I said, “what do you mean Jill is gone”; dreading to hear those fatal words, she is dead. Th is shocked the entire hospital for the attending doctor on duty attended school with Jill and knew her and most of the family. Th is was a sad dark day for us, for Princeton, WV. is a small town where everybody knows everybody. We hadn’t had many murders of this sort and never had we a murder up close and personal in our family. Jill was so well known that it was hard to pick a jury because she had helped men working on the rail road ( we grew up around trains) by giving them snacks and cold drinks of water. She went to school with most everyone on the jury or they had a kid who knew her. Finally, the trial starts and the reality really sinks in watching them pass around my sister.s
