To this horrific crime.
- Briana and jeronta had justice.
I felt relieved because three life sentences,
You're never going to see the outside of a prison.
You have the grace of still having your life
And waking up every morning, but you're not going to be
Able to hurt anyone else.
And that was important for our family.

Briana's heart went to a cardiovascular nurse,
Which is amazing.
I got a chance to hear my daughter's heartbeat
As a christmas gift
That her heart recipient sent to me.
And that's something I get to have.
That's briana's heartbeat.
I can hear it whenever I want to.
