Your Honor,
I’ve struggled for weeks over writing this. Because, I honestly am not sure how to explain the path of destruction left in the wake of the decisions made by Richard Allen on February 13, 2017. That day changed all of our lives, in so many ways, forever. Libby was always my go to for advice. She somehow would have known exactly what to say in this situation.

But I honestly don’t know how to process the fact that a husband and father is capable of the horrendous acts of brutality inflicted upon our beautiful children! I was totally blind to the fact that such evil actually existed. I don’t know which is worse, knowing or not knowing…
